Fuji Roubaix 1.5 Road Bike 2016. The Fuji Roubaix continues its winning ways as one of cycling's best selling road bicycles. The Roubaix 1.5 version of this popular design sports the now legendary race geometry, proven technology, and contemporary style for the new year. Perfect for the seasoned racer or an everyday rider looking to cut down their commuting times, the Roubaix is designed to improve aerodynamics for maximum speed while remaining surprisingly comfortable. The new Roubaix 1.5 features the lightweight and durable Fuji A6 SL custom butted alloy frame with a PIIS BB86 bottom bracket shell that has more surface area to attach a larger down tube and chainstays. The result is better stability under load. The FC 440 carbon fork with tapered carbon steerer reduces weight and vibration in the front for overall stability and predictable handling. The Roubaix 1.5 is equipped with the Shimano Tiagra drivetrain, offering 20 gearing options and front and rear Shimano Tiagra derailleurs to promote responsive shifting and preserve the pivots for greater durability over the long term. The Tektro R540 dual pivot caliper brake system has forged aluminum arms and P422 adjustable angle cartridge pads flashing light action and optimum braking power. The Oval 327 areo alloy clincher wheels are light and fast, and the Vittoria Zaffiro Pro Slick 700x25 foldable tires are comparable to some top racing tires but have the added durability to go high miles despite fast, intense riding. Oval Concepts provides much of the static components, including the comfortable Oval Concepts 310 handlebar with padded suede tape and the Oval Concepts R300 saddle with steel rails. If you want to go fast but remain comfortable while you're doing it, the Fuji Roubaix 1.5 road bike is a perfect fit.
