But what's it like as a road bike? If you were to put on some lighter road wheels with 28mm tires would it compete favourably with dedicated endurance bikes, such as the Roubaix?
I know that it's a bit heavier, and the Future Shock is set up for off-road use, but I'd be interesting in hearing how well it works on pavement.
Thanks!

I rode a 2015 carbon comp for a few months last year. It had whatever tires came with it...32s maybe? Anyway, that rig was so fast, so stiff and so agile, I could pretty much dust most people on my weekly group ride. Honestly, those bikes are really nice, for road or off road. You can't really go wrong.
