    I have been at Specialized since Monday at there SBCU program, I have ridden the S-Works Roubaix SL, S-Works Tarmac SL and SL2, and S-Works Tricross, sadly the mountain ride was canceled today do to rainy conditions. IMO you can't go wrong with the S-Works Tarmac it is an amazing bike!!!

    What he said, Tarmac ftw. If I ever converted over to a road bike that would be a first pick!

    Congrats, and I'm sorry you have to wait to ride it

    I don't know Dave if I had to ride a road bike it would mos def be a Roubaix, the ride comfort is a priority of mine. Ohh side note for Dave, the Demo 8 II is now a sub 40 pound bike ... you need one!
