Specialised Roubaix Elite vs OCR Composite 1

[yogie]

Has anyone test rode or owns a Specialised Roubaix Elite? I just test rode one after testing an OCR Composite 1 and was blown away. The carbon frame had much more of a dampening ride than the OCR and was much more comfortable and relaxed. A search in the web revealed that the carbon frame is of an excellent standard. Refer http://www.roadcyclinguk.com/news/a...UAN/514/v/2/sp/ I was wondering if others had a similar experience.

I also tested the Roubaix Expert and the Giant TCR and found the roubaix to be a much better ride. I purchased the roubaix expert several weeks ago and love this bike. I feel that althought this is more of a touring bike as opposed to a race bike it still handles and rides better than any bike I have owned in the past. I am also a taller rider and the roubaix fit me better as opposed to the Giant. Good luck on your purchase.
