Hey,

I'm a diehard roadie and I've seen that Roubaix at my LBS. That's a very
respectable ride. Congratulations. And 105 components will get the job
done. If you want to upgrade later, that frame should be a fine platform.

Funny thing was I was testing it and a Trek 2100. Of course, to test the
2100, I rode the 2300. Those Ultegra components do shift very nicely.

That's the important part. I've had a Schwinn Voyager for the last 17
years and I wouldn't trade it for the sleekest European racing machine
made!
