Bought for $1,100 owned by a 75 year old gentleman who just never got into riding it. Everything appears to be stock except I replaced the tires and tubes because they were original and suffering from oxidation cracking. No rust and looks pristine. Rocking 32 mm tires right now.
It was being advertised as being a regular Roubaix with Shimano Tiagra on it and I told them it was a Roubaix sport but they never change the listing. Regardless it wouldn’t have altered the sale price that much because it is a little bit older. However it has one of the most attractive looking frame colors of any of their Roubaix models in my opinion.
It has the Future Shock 1.0 on it which I’m not sure the difference is between the newer versions but it works well. It fits me better than my old bike and having wider tires with lower tire pressure is very nice. Took it on its first 30 mile ride across a pothole infested bike trail yesterday with 60psi in the tires.
