Thanks - I'm still working the kinks out of a bike fitting, but this bike is sooo much better than my last (first) road bike.
I'm in love with it & I still don't have the fit down.
It is an absolute joy to ride.

Wow! Campy! A life long dream groupetto for me. Nice ride there. I tested a Roubaix over the weekend. It was pretty responsive on a small hill I took it up. How well do the Zert fittings work? I ride on a lot of Chip Sealed
roads up here and I'm curious how much vibriation you would actually fell.

sorry it took me so long to reply.
about 98% of my TS time is from my iphone.

I love my Roubaix.
I bought it because it was supposed to be a GRAND mix between high tech sports car and plush caddie.

Although I believe
I can tell a difference in the vibration, I am not certain the difference is as much as I have read about for a few years.

The rest of the bike delivers as promised. It handles unbelivable. I can stand and hammer up the
steepest of hills and there is absolutely no flex. I could tell this as soon as I switched from my old Aluminum TREK. Definately puts what little power I have directly to the road.
Believe it or not, I am still fine tuning the
bike. Just left the shop today and changed the bar angle. I changed the seat height about 1/8-1/4 inch two rides ago. It is amazing how such small changes make a difference.

Ok - I have rambled enough.
Let me know if you have
any other questions.
