Specialized S-Works Roubaix SL3 '12

Specialized S-Works Roubaix SL3

The S-Works Roubaix is built with Specialized's highest specification 11r carbon frame.

Upgrades from Specialized Roubaix Pro SL3

• Specialized's highest specification 11r carbon frame - still with Zertz shock absorbers - weighs less than 1,000g.
• Despite the sub kilo weight, this frame is torsionally stiffer than pre-2011 versions of the S-Works Roubaix so it's capable of even quicker acceleration.
• However, the Specialized S-Works Roubaix SL3 Frameset still boasts the Zertz seatstay and fork leg inserts that help make it the best cobble-stone-coping endurance race bike.
• Full Shimano Dura-Ace groupset (bar the lighter weight S-Works SL FACT carbon chainset with ceramic bearing bottom bracket).
• DT Tricon wheels -you can read about this tubeless-ready set of wheels costing nearly a grand per pair in this review.

Road Bike Sizing Guide.

'The smoother, faster S-Works Roubaix SL3 features a super light and stiff FACT 11r carbon frame with our uniquely shaped tapered head tube, In-Zertz vibration dampers, and full internal cable routing—the same frame that won the grueling Paris-Roubaix race; with Pro-Tour proven Dura-Ace components, Specialized SL FACT carbon cranks, and DT Tricon tubeless wheels.'
