2025 Specialized S-Works Roubaix Red AXS Road Bike
Two decades ago, Specialized redefined road cycling by proving that comfort and performance go hand in hand. The latest S-Works Roubaix SL8 continues that legacy—lighter, faster, and smoother than ever before. With cutting-edge compliance technology and race-proven efficiency, Roubaix transforms brutal roads into pure riding bliss.
At the heart of the Roubaix SL8 lies Future Shock 3.0, delivering 20mm of friction-free travel between the stem and head tube. This revolutionary system keeps your hands calm and planted, improving control, reducing fatigue, and preserving speed over rough terrain—no matter your riding position.
Comfort Without Compromise
The dropped seat clamp design works in harmony with the S-Works Pavé seatpost, creating AfterShock technology that maximizes vertical compliance without sacrificing drivetrain efficiency. Combined with Rider First Engineered™ construction, every frame size delivers the same perfectly balanced ride feel.
With tire clearance up to 38c / 40mm, the Roubaix confidently handles broken pavement, cobbles, and light gravel. Multiple mounts—including top tube and triple bottle mounts—make it ready for epic endurance adventures.
Light, Aero, and Fast
Built using Specialized’s FACT 12R carbon and FreeFoil Shape Library, the Roubaix SL8 frame weighs just 828 grams. Dropped seat stays and refined tube profiles deliver class-leading aerodynamics—making this the fastest endurance road bike Specialized has ever created.
