LBS let me take a new Specialized Roubaix for a few hours today. Did 25 mi on it, first carbon bike I have ridden. Couldn't get over how stiff it was at first, til I noticed how effortless hills were. Full Ultegra, nice shifting.
Verdict? Not sure i require the more upright geometry, going to ride a Tarmac. Prob take a Trek Madone and a Cervelo out for a spin too.
Getting back on my 10 year old alu bike...it felt cramped, tired, and heavy.
