Bit of a comparison of two bikes I’ve been riding on audax events, the Genesis Datum “Gravel” bike and the Specialized Roubaix

Gravel vs. Cobbles: two bikes for long distance

But which is best?  Both of them.

BTW I know that the Roubaix is available with disks, often ride with AUK champ Mikey who has these

very similar bikes. I tried

very similar bikes. I tried both and found the roubaix was slightly too upright a riding position for me (no doubt I could have tinkered with it to improve things). if I could have got the datum frameset in white I would have bought one, not a fan of the stealth black.

 

oh and it’s “disc” not “disk” 😛
