This S-Works Roubaix is one comfortable and super light bike! This was my Sunday fair weather machine that has not actually seen a day of racing. As such, it is still in incredible shape!

Will consider trade for similarly valued and sized gravel bike.

In Fernie. Pick-up preferred. Sometimes head north to Edmonton, Calgary and Lethbridge. With pre-payment I could deliver within a few hours if it makes sense...
Can have boxed and delivered within Canada but buyer to organize and pay.

From a review on the web:
The Roubaix SL3 is at its heart an endurance bike built for long miles in relative comfort. As such it is designed to offer a more laid-back position with proven endurance geometry. When compared to a race bike, head tubes are taller across all sizes and offer a slightly more laid-back angle. Fork rake is increased, chainstays are longer and as a result the wheelbase increases. The end result is an upright position that puts more weight in the saddle, relieving pressure on the hands, arms and neck while retaining an even weight distribution between the wheels.

Another hallmark of the Roubaix line up is unparalleled compliance and high-frequency vibration dampening. This is an area where Specialized truly ramped up the SL3’s performance. The Zertz inserts used in the forks and rear seatstays are designed to interrupt high-frequency vibration before it can reach your hands or lower back.

The Roubaix SL3’s big hit compliance comes from the seatstays which have been redesigned to deliver up to 6mm of possible deflection vertically, while they track from the dropouts to the seat tube in a much more direct route to ensure as much lateral stiffness as possible. The front end also has vertical compliance in mind. The increased rake of the fork provides the vertical compliance up front with the custom tapered steer tube ensuring it doesn’t go to waste.

The SL3 finds the elusive balance between vertical compliance and lateral stiffness. Up front the SL3 uses a massive down tube to resist torsion from both the pedals and the bars. The 1-3/8 lower bearing is tucked up into the head tube to allow the fibers from the down tube to wrap directly around it. The top tube utilizes a new shape at the head tube called the Cobra. It actually flares as it contacts the head tube, which lets the front end comply vertically but holds it rock solid laterally. At the pedals the bottom bracket and chainstays are now molded in one piece with internal bracing and are massively oversized.

One of the most impressive facts is essentially an afterthought. Thanks to Specialized’s FACT 11 carbon, the frame tips the scales at just over 1,000 grams for a 56cm. That is incredibly light for a bike created from a design brief that didn’t include the word “lightweight.”
