Specialized Roubaix Road Tubeless – Final thoughts

Well, these are now off the bike and hanging on the wall. They never really did it for me, however I put few miles on them. Basically, they just arent wide enough for a rider my weight, and as a result ride kinda hard. 

Tire Testspecialized, tires

Schwalbe One (v1) 700x25c tire test.

These are fat! 27mm measured width at 80 psi and 28mm at 95 psi on a Pacenti PL-23 hoop. 


On my 1996 Bianchi Repart Corse TSX, they’re a tight fit. I had to back the rear dropouts out all the way, such as it was. 

Test inflation pressures: 80/95 f/r. 

Update: the first test ride ended badly with a small sidewall pinhole that didnt seal before I went out. I got to walk 😐
