2009 Roubaix Comp Frameset

SERIOUSLY SMOOTH AND SERIOUSLY FAST. When the new Roubaix isn't silencing the cobbles and stealing the podium of races by the same name, it's busy turning your next 100 miles in to the "Big Easy."

• The compact Roubaix Comp puts our FACT 7r carbon to work in a more-upright-positioned race design, the vibration-absorbing Zertz inserts add an additional layer of comfort.

• The Specialized FACT carbon monocoque fork is full carbon—legs, crown, steerer—and features an oversized lower bearing race for precision and strength, Zertz inserts soak up the chatter.

• The Mindset Plus headset uses sealed cartridge bearings for long life, and 40mm of spacers let you easily fine-tune your fit.

• The Zertz insert in the Pro SL FACT carbon seatpost soaks up vibrations without wasting your energy.
