Specialized Roubaix SL8 2025 Road Bike

Specialized created the endurance road category two decades ago proving that high ergonomics means high performance. Today, the new Roubaix SL8 with Future Shock 3.0 is lighter, faster, and smoother than any road bike ever made, unleashing unmatched confidence. The road may be hell below, but on Roubaix, it’s always heaven above.

Key Features

• Future Shock 3.0 for Superior Compliance - The innovative Future Shock 3.0 offers 20mm of adjustable, smooth travel between the stem and head tube, ensuring a stable ride with reduced hand and bar impact, allowing for better control and confidence on rough terrain.


• AfterShock Technology for Optimal Vertical Compliance - The combination of a dropped clamp design and the Pavé seatpost enhances seatpost deflection for a smooth yet efficient ride. Paired with the rigid rear triangle, this system ensures maximum compliance without sacrificing power transfer.


• Versatility and Endurance Capability - With endurance geometry and clearance for up to 40mm tires, the Roubaix SL8 excels on rough roads and light gravel. Additional mounts for bottles, top tubes, and fenders make it ideal for long adventures.


• Unparalleled Performance in Speed and Weight - At just 950 grams, the Roubaix SL8 features aerodynamic shapes from the Free Foil library, dropped seat stays, and a lightweight Fact 10r carbon frame inspired by the Aethos, delivering unmatched speed and class-leading weight efficiency.
