Test rode a 105 bike to see how the new 105 shifts and was very impressed with it so i'm saving $500 and putting that towards a wheelset and few other items.

garage door pic will be posted after I pick it up.

Gotta say the Roubaix really does smooth the road out. I rode a Tarmac and the difference was remarkable. Tarmac didn't really feel faster but definitely felt jittery. zero jitter on the Roubaix. Can not wait to get a nice long ride in on this bike.

Two thumbs up! Spesh is definitely at the top of their game right now.....and I, for one, am glad to see the trend away from the murdered out black framed bikes....
