so, funny enough I had right of first refusal on that bike from Weisan as it came from the same original owner as my Anderson.. I was super close on getting it, but wanted something with e-shifting and bit larger tire clearance.. it will be a fantastic bike for whoever picks it up though! One of the biggest draws to the SL8 Roubaix is the claimed 40mm tire clearance (Baron Blubba says a 42 can fit).. that will probably mean I can ride that on 90% of the gravel I would want to go on.. it also have fender mounts that might be important when I move to Oregon in two years..

The guy I bought the ‘21 S-Works Roubaix from in February (referenced above) bought a S-Works SL-8 to replace it. He says it is more responsive and race like than the Roubaix. I’ve got over 3,700 miles on the Roubaix since March. The Future Shock is amazing! It does everything Spesh says it does. This bike with the FS and 30mm Conti GP5000 tires is the smooooothest ride I’ve ever had. Good luck, Gary Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Hey fourflys sell the Anderson to me and buy the Tlab. Not that I need another bike. LMK- if you are going down that road.

The T-Lab would be a fantastic bike for someone only looking to ride 32-33mm tires.. (I think it maxes out at 35mm) but I have 30mm Vittoria Corsa Controls on the Anderson and it rides like magic, so I'm looking for something that can get closer to that 40mm tire that would allow some light gravel and/or fenders once i move to Oregon..

I need to bring the BMC up one day, swap bikes and tires with you as I have 32mm tires that measure 34.5...Wanted to try some smaller rubber to test the ride quality...Enjoy the holiday weekend....stopped at the front gate to see "Charlie" the gate keeper and get a refill on H20- He is a character.....can not get him to stop saying '"sir" even in Lyrca.
