Summary
The Specialized Roubaix is celebrated for its exceptional comfort and innovative Future Shock suspension, making it a standout in the endurance category. It offers a balanced ride quality, blending speed with comfort, though some reviews note it lacks the aggressive edge of pure race bikes. While praised for its frame quality and versatility, criticisms include its price and some component choices.
Exceptional comfort with Future Shock suspension
Balanced ride quality blending speed and comfort
High-quality frame and versatile performance
Higher price point compared to rivals
Some component choices not meeting expectations
Lacks the aggressive edge of pure race bikes
It’s more Rolls Royce than Lamborghini in terms of performance.
Cycling WeeklyIn the past I definitely would not have considered myself a Roubaix customer, but now I’d have to reconsider.
CyclistSpecialized launched the Roubaix with the tagline 'smoother is faster' and I’m inclined to agree.

REVAMPED AND STILL A WINNER
Oct 2021 · Ben Delaney
Shimano’s latest R9200 Dura-Ace group has a few options, but none of them include mechanical shifting; it’s Di2 only for Shimano’s top racing group from here on out. At Paris-Roubaix, Peter Sagan has voted with his bike that he prefers still mechanical shifting for the world’s hardest cobblestone race, thank you very much. In 2018, … Continued

The 2020 Specialized S-Works Roubaix is as comfortable as previous generations while matching the speed of the Tarmac SL6
Nipping at the Tarmac's heel in terms of performance
But with much greater comfort and increased versatility at the turn of a dial
Impressively light
Fantastic control
To buy an S-Works means nearly £10k
But cost is subjective

This Future Shock-equipped bike promises comfort and speed, and is one of our Endurance Bike of the Year 2020 contenders
Road smoothing
Speedy handling
Not the greatest-value proposition when it comes to the wheels

The Specialized S-Works Roubaix SRAM RED eTap AXS endurance bike on test against 12 competitors. Can maximum comfort and speed be combined?
Thought-through technical concept
Adjustable Future Shock 2.0 suspension
Feels secure on all terrain
Missing just a tiny bit of sprightliness
Future Shock and seat post clamp don't quite fit into the otherwise tidy picture

The latest Roubaix has more versatility with a promise of better performance. Does it deliver?
Ride performance
Frame quality
Future shock does a good job of smoothing out the road
Heavy wheels suck away potential speed
Feb 2020 · Stu Kerton
Fast, sweet-handling bike with great comfort levels, but I'd like some control over the spring rate
Handling unaffected by rough roads at speed
Ultegra Di2 groupset is faultless in use
No lockout on Future Shock, which means it bounces under hard efforts
Apr 2019 · Veronika Benson
At the peak of the Spring Classics, we had the chance to put Specialized’s all-new Future Shock 2.0 front suspension Roubaix endurance road bike to a true test on the bergs, pavé & wind swept roads that define those iconic one-day races. While the Roubaix certainly proved its mettle with Phillipe Gilbert winning Paris-Roubaix on …
