Roubaix. I think I actually tried an Allez on my first trip to the LBS, but then after talking to them and thinking about where I will be riding, I decided to focus more on gravel bikes so I could have the flexibility.
I am a fan of the Roubaix, futureshock and all. Full disclosure, the only other “road bike” I have ridden in the last 20 years is a Kona Jake (cross bike). The Roubaix is head and shoulders more comfortable.
Good luck.
