Hello all,

I'm in the market for buying a new bike.
I hope you can help me choose, if someone have experience with the following models:

- https://www.specialized.com/us/en/men/b ... omp/115635
- http://www.merida-bikes.com/en_int/bike ... -6592.html

The Roubaix and Merida have the same price. The Tarmac is more expensive, and doesn't have Thru-axles.

I want do buy in a local dealer, in order to trade my actual ride, so I'm not looking into other brands.

I own a Specialized Roubaix SL2. I like my current bike geometry.

I know I'm looking for diferente types of bikes, but for what we can see, the new Roubaix is similar to a Tarmac/Merida geometry. The roads were I live are paved, and I'm afraid that the coil won't last 5-6 years.

Ideas and opinions please!

Best regards,

P.Andre
