I have a new Roubaix Expert myself and the plan is going to prepare it for a bit of gravel riding during the winther :)

With new Roubaix you have to use minimum 400mm.

Actual size of the tire is little over 32mm.
So, if you want, you can use cyclocross tires, 32mm will be OK. I think 35mm won't fit. :noidea:

Thanks for your feedback :)
Yesterday i mounted Schwalbe S-One Tubeless 3o mm on the bike. Plenty of room in the fork and rear stay for more beefy tires :)

Currently nothing better to do, miserable weather.... "swapped" around some components, to save a few grams.

This is looking more and more like summer project, as the 9120 & 9170 components, got pushed back as late june- july 2017. :roll:

Tomyboy - love your work. Very professional job.

Just a question on your cable routing: I have just received my 2017 S-Works Roubaix frameset and I can't see how the front derailleur cables up with Di2. Does your frame have a cable hole close to the derailleur or is it the one that the manual shifting cable comes from closer to the BB?

Awesome work. You'll have the prettiest Elite guaranteed.

Did you happen to weigh the wheels? Are they in the 1900-2000 gram range?

I'm thinking it would be easy to drop 500 grams with the new tubeless Ksyriums disc wheels.

Can't say. The bike was in the works for over a year.
Now winter is coming, so I don't think that will drive this until next spring.
So, we will see. :wink:
