Hello all,
I purchased 99 Allez sport 2 years ago and avrage 90 miles per week @ 18 mph. I told myself that if I rode well that I would upgrade. Welp now I am considering an upgrade to a 10 Roubaix Pro. I am 6'1" and 270 lbs. What kind of ride diff should I expect from the swap? I have test riden the carbon frame for a short spurt and it felt fine. Should I have to upgrade the stock wheels for my weight? Thanks in advance.
