Specialized 2011: Roubaix SL3

 


 

The Specialized Roubaix 2011 model evolves in SL3, which was completely revised. For the new frame is the same technology was used to model construction Tarmac SL3, is no longer made with one type of carbon fiber, but with different types, which vary depending on the characteristics of rigidity and flexibility that are used according to the different areas of the frame and subjected to mechanical stress that this move.

 

 

In this way we obtained a frame with increased torsional stiffness and greater vertical flexibility, in addition to reducing the weight of the frame. Basically now the bike is stiffer, reactive, but also more comfortable on bumpy. The new chassis has seen off the weight of 100 grams compared to the previous Roubaix and now weighs about 965 grams. It comes in two versions for Shimano Di2 and conventional groups. The new internal cable are completely revised in the placement of areas Zertz elastomer. These inserts are positioned on the fork and the rear vertical tubes and play a major role in isolating the chassis and the rider from vibration of the ground. Now they have a different form which provides a further increase in the absorption of vibrations. Remains the central movement of oversize type and forks straight seeds. The number of traditional steering 1 inch and 1/8 and remains unchanged the overall design of the frame with the characteristic curve of the tube.
