Se sedmi vítězstvími na Paříž-Roubaix naše Roubaix potvrdilo, že plynulejší znamená rychlejší. Ovšem, do této chvíle se zmiňovaná plynulost vždy vázala k určitým kompromisům. Tomu je s dneškem konec. Zbrusu nové S-Works Roubaix nyní poskytuje dostatek poddajnosti, bez kompromisů a to díky představení zcela nového pružení Future Shock 2.0, které Vám poskytne lepší kontrolu a možnosti tlumení, nová sedlovka Pavé dělá z tohoto Roubaix to nejvyváženější. Aerodynamika, která je srovnatelná s kolem Tarmac a rám s technologií Rider-First Engineered™, která ušetřila nejeden gram hmotnosti (rám váží pod 900 gramů, velikost 56 cm, barva černá). A je pořád tak pohodlné? Jistě, ale nenazývejme jej pohodlným kolem, protože výkon byl za každým konstrukčním rozhodnutím, jaké jsme udělali. Tohle je nové Roubaix.
The new frame delivers compliance without compromise via the perfect balance of aerodynamics, light overall weight, compliance, and Rider-First Engineering. With tube shapes that were born in our FreeFoil Shape Library and validated in the Win Tunnel, the new Roubaix is more aero than the Tarmac SL6. Meanwhile, to ensure the weight and ride quality, we turned to a Rider-First Engineered™ design to deliver optimal stiffness and compliance across all sizes, from 44 to 61cm. Of course, the frame also stays below 900 grams (Size 56cm | Black). And to prep you for your own Hell of the North, we've made room for 33mm tires.
To go along with the new frame, we've also developed a totally-new S-Works Pavé seatpost. Not only is it the first compliant seatpost that's ALSO aerodynamic, it does so without any additional weight or finicky contraptions. Starting with the same D-shape design found on the Tarmac, we took its compliance a step further by building additional flex into the upper and developing a new drop-clamp design in the frame. This provides plenty of compliance, while staying perfectly balanced with the front-end, so you get a smooth, balanced ride no matter how rough the road.
The Future Shock 2.0 is the result of our pro riders' demands for the cobbles of Roubaix. It's smoother, faster, and gives you more control via a knob atop the stem. This knob adjusts compression from fully-open to stiff, while hydraulically-damped internals control rebound. Add it up, and this latest version will reduce fatigue and increase your speed, no matter the terrain. The new Smooth Boot, top cap, and Future Stem also enhance the aesthetic, so you get a clean transition from head tube to stem.
