Choosing between these two carbon endurance road bikes comes down to one key question: do you want a new bike with wireless shifting, or are you willing to buy used to get upgraded components for less? The Bianchi Infinito CV is the new option, with SRAM Rival AXS wireless shifting and hydraulic disc brakes on a 55cm carbon frame. The Specialized Roubaix Sport SL6 is a used 52cm bike with an upgraded Easton EC70 carbon aero handlebar, also featuring hydraulic disc brakes.
Quick Verdict
If you want wireless SRAM Rival AXS shifting and a new frame, the Bianchi Infinito CV is the pick. If you'd rather pay less and want the upgraded Easton EC70 carbon aero handlebar, the Specialized Roubaix Sport SL6 is the more accessible option. Both are carbon road bikes with hydraulic disc brakes, so the decision comes down to condition, shifting, and price.

Product Notes
Bianchi Infinito CV Carbon Endurance Road Bike - SRAM Rival AXS Wireless
The Bianchi Infinito CV is a new carbon endurance road bike with SRAM Rival AXS wireless shifting and hydraulic disc brakes. The 55cm frame is paired with carbon fiber and a drop handlebar, making it a solid choice for long road rides. At USD 3,195, it's the higher-priced bike in this comparison, but you're paying for a brand-new build and wireless convenience. One trade-off: the bike ships with the front wheel and handlebar removed and the stem turned backward, so you'll need to reassemble it before riding. That's manageable for a home mechanic, but it's a step you won't find with a fully assembled shop bike.
Specialized Roubaix Sport SL6 Carbon Road Bike, 52cm, EC70 Carbon Aero Bars
The Specialized Roubaix Sport SL6 is a used carbon road bike that comes with some meaningful upgrades. The Easton EC70 carbon aero handlebar is the headline, but you also get new handlebar tape, a new saddle, and upgraded Continental tires. The 52cm frame and endurance geometry make it a comfortable pick for riders who fit that size, and the wheels are tubeless compatible. Listed at USD 1,950, it's the lower-priced option here. It shows light scuffs from normal use, but the bike has no cracks or excessive wear and has been professionally inspected and tuned. If you're okay with a used frame, this is a practical way to get a capable carbon road bike for less upfront.
Final Choice by Use Case
If your priority is a new bike with wireless shifting and you don't mind a higher price, the Bianchi Infinito CV is the bike to pick. It's also the right choice if you need a 55cm frame and prefer a classic drop bar. If you want to spend less and need a 52cm frame with a carbon aero bar, the Specialized Roubaix Sport SL6 is the right fit. Both are carbon endurance road bikes with hydraulic disc brakes, so you can't go wrong either way.
