New 2 me, but several years old.
I'm still working on the setup after 1000 miles. (June 6, 2012).
Lowering the bar and brining it closer to me soon.
Also due to change seats per Dr's orders.

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.
