There's no 2017 Roubaix Sport, 2017 Roubaix starts with Elite > Comp > Expert > and so on
For 2018, apparently, it starts with Sport > Elite > Comp > Expert > and so on. The Sport comes at a lower price level than the 2017 Elite though it's specced without the CG-R seatpost and the frame is using Fact 9r instead of Fact10r found in Elite level and above (S-Works uses Fact11r, and Expert as well I think)
Sorry to hear about your previous bike
