Specialized Roubaix Expert Double Road Bike - 2006
EXPERIENCE: ENDURANCE ROAD
Developed and named for a 165-mile suffer-fest run across 500 year-old cobbles, the Roubaix is perfect for anyone who wants to go faster and longer.
Tested and tuned on the toughest roads by members of the Gerolsteiner team and thousands of enthusiasts, the Roubaix--with its dialed geometry, lightweight, high efficiency, supple ride and tuned ergonomics--is regularly first across the line in mountain stages and Saturday morning rides. While most riders won't be seeking UCI points on a Roubaix, everyone will be glad to have a steed that lets them go longer and faster than ever before.
