Fuji Roubaix 1.4 LE Road Bike 2017 Performance Exclusive. The Fuji Roubaix 1.4 LE road bike is all about efficiency, acceleration, and control, and we're thrilled to see Fuji match its superior A6 SL custom blend frame with a slick Shimano 105 drivetrain and Oval 327 wheels. The Roubaix line is one our best selling lines and will continue to be for years to come. The Fuji Roubaix is designed with more aggressive race geometry to improve critical aerodynamics for maximum speed, and meet the end goal of elevating your performance. Fuji uses their proprietary aluminum tubes, which are butted, to increase the frame's durability and maximize rider energy output through enhanced stiffness. A Press Fit BB86 bottom bracket shell provides more surface area to attach a larger down tube and chain stays for better stability and rigidity under load. The internal bearing design is also lighter than traditional external cups as well. The shorter head tube of the Roubaix lowers the handlebar position and consequently puts you in a more aerodynamic riding position. Additionally, the head tube is tapered to improve front end handling and increase strength under rider torque. Finally, the Roubaix frame is designed with shorter chainstays, which results in a shorter wheelbase for precise handling at a moment's notice, and a full carbon fork to smooth out the road ahead. The Fuji Roubaix 1.4 LE features Shimano 105 11 speed components and an Oval 520 mid compact crankset. A forgiving Shimano 105 1128 cassette allows you to handle grades of all kinds without sacrificing big gears for power. Oval's luscious suede tape and road tuned saddle with a special pressure relief zone make every ride enjoyable. Sturdy alloy bars, stem and seatpost keep you confident and in control.
