Specialized Roubaix SL4 Elite Disc 2016 - Road Bike
With its endurance road geometry, vibration damping properties and hydraulic disc brakes the Specialized Roubaix will allow you to ride further for longer, especially on uneven road surfaces.
Carbon frame and fork
At the heart of the Roubaix SL4 Elite Disc is the FACT 8r carbon frame. A taller head tube, slightly more relaxed head angles, short chainstays and low bottom bracket provide stable confident handling and a comfortable, slightly more upright, riding position.. just what you need on long, grueling rides.
The disc specific FACT carbon fork features a tapered steerer tube which creates a naturally stiffer head tube junction for increased steering response and a more confident ride.
In addition to the natural vibration absorbing properties of carbon, rider comfort is further enhanced by Zertz vibration damping inserts. Incorporated into the seatstays and fork blades these viscoelastic dampers soak up the road vibrations that travel up through the frame before they reach your body. This reduces fatigue so that you remain fresh in saddle for longer.
SRAM Rival
The SRAM Rival drivetrain offers true 22 speed gearing. All of the cogs on the cassette can be used from either chainring due to the YAW front mech which pivots to avoid chain rub at the extreme ends of the cassette. Combined with an FSA Gossamer Pro compact chainset the gear range is wide 2which will help you to take on those challenging climbs.
Hydraulic disc brakes
SRAM Rival hydraulic disc brakes offer unparalleled stopping performance. As well as being very powerful the great modulation allows you to apply exactly the right amount of stopping power that you need. The other great thing about disc brakes (especially hydraulics) is that they work just as well in the wet as they do in the dry, so you can control your speed with confidence whatever the weather.
The AXIS 2.0 wheels are reliable, durable and perfectly suited to long days in the saddle. 25mm tyres offer a little extra stability over thinner race tyres and include puncture protection.
The endurance riding features also include shallow drop bars with gel pads under the bar tape as well as the CG-R FACT carbon seatpost which has vertical compliance built in for an even more comfortable ride.
The Specialized Roubaix SL4 Elite Disc is an endurance road bike that is packed full of features and is ideal for eating up the mile efficiently all year round.Key Features :
- The Specialized SL4 FACT 8r carbon frame has all the road absorbing, engineered compliance that you'd expect, while still providing all the responsiveness and performance you need for long days in the saddle.
