FACT ROAD<br />

OUR CARBON TECHNOLOGY IS TUNED TO YOUR EXPERIENCE Our proprietary<br />

FACT (Functional Advanced Composite Technology) allows us to develop the<br />

best complete-per<strong>for</strong>mance road frames and components <strong>for</strong> specific applications<br />

through an integrated-development approach to design, material choice,<br />

and fabrication method.<br />

REGARDLESS OF THE EXPERIENCE a rider<br />

is seeking, <strong>Specialized</strong>’s purpose is to make<br />

bikes and equipment that enable all types<br />

<strong>of</strong> cyclists to get more enjoyment from<br />

every ride.<br />

More than just a type <strong>of</strong> material, FACT<br />

(Functional Advanced Composite Technology)<br />

is a combination <strong>of</strong> sound engineering, cuttingedge<br />

fabrication techniques, intelligent material<br />

selection, tireless prototyping, and an endless<br />

cycle <strong>of</strong> testing that enables us to create the<br />

best ride possible.<br />

THE ROUBAIX SL delivers a smoother<br />

ride than letting 30 psi out <strong>of</strong> your tire<br />

through its engineered seat-stay shape<br />

and second-generation Zertz vibrationdamping<br />

inserts.<br />

FACT always starts with the demands <strong>of</strong> the<br />

riding experience we are trying to advance,<br />

and results in bikes and equipment with proven<br />

per<strong>for</strong>mance benefits, including:<br />

• Incredibly low weight<br />

• Category-leading efficiency<br />

• Exceptionally high strength<br />

• Flawless handling<br />
