likerage gave you the clamp diameter, but specialized.com doesn't list the stem lengths in the Roubaix geometry chart, oddly. If it's like the Allez series, you probably have a stem of anywhere from 90mm to 130mm depending on bike size. However, your shop should fit you properly and swap the stem to make the bike fit right, since stem-plus- (effective)-top-tube determines your overall reach. To my understanding, this is a fairly standard thing for a good bike shop to do when they sell a bike. So whatever length stem the bike comes with, you should check it in the store and get the length that fits you best.

I have a 58cm Roubaix 27 and the stock stem was 110mm. It felt a bit long and the LBS swapped it for a 100. The 54cm bike has an 80mm stem.

Another number not given on the website is the width of the handlebars- on mine its 43cm which was much wider than my old bike but feels fine to me.
