Scott Solace 30 vs Specialized Roubaix


2721sim

Recommended Posts

Ok, so I am down to two ...

Scott Solace 30:

Pro's:

Wheel set better of the two

Shimano 105 brake calliper - front

 

Con's:

2014 edition of the 105 giving it only 10 speed

Don't know if I like the idea of a brake caliper under the BB?

 

Roubaix

Pros

Full 2015 105 kit so 11 speed...

Cons:

Axis wheel set and brake calipers

 

Any constructive Suggestions from anybody out there that has one of these?

 

I have crossed the Trek Madone 4.3 off the list, and the Giant TCR ...

 

Thanks

Have you considered the 2015 Scott CR1?

 

The CR1 20 has full 11 speed 105 groupo and the CR1 10 full ultegra 11 speed.

 

Not sure what wheel set the solace has that you looking at

Go for the spez. From what I've heard is that it gives a very nice, comfy ride and IMO is much better looking than the scott. It also has 11-speed 105. You can always upgrade the wheels later.

Was looking at what is available now, thus these two options. Spez has Axis rims and Scott has Shimano RS 11's Edited by 2721sim

Ended up splitting hairs on the bike ... so went with the better service ... and the more accommodating LBS ...  

 

A fantastic deal, from Geco Cycles near Cape Gate, upgraded components to full Ultegra ... A pleasure to deal with ... and went out their way to find a deal to match me ...
