Fuji Roubaix Review

The Fuji Roubaix is a lightweight, sturdy, smooth, comfortable, and fast road race bike. It is perfect for new or experienced cyclists who love racing.

• The Fuji Roubaix is ideal for new riders looking to buy their first race ride.
• The Roubaix can also be perfect as a dedicated training bike for experienced riders.

Here are some things we like about the performance of the Fuji Roubaix:

• The Shimano 105, 11-28T, 11-speed cassette provides you with extensive gear options to easily go up hills and race downhill.
• The Roubaix’s shorter wheelbase gives you nimble handling, which is just what you need to keep this bike on track as you take corners fast.
• The A6-SL super-butted 6066 aluminum frame offers substantial stiffness, so no energy is lost as you pedal.
• The bike’s Oval Concepts 310 Ergo handlebar feels comfortable in the palms. 
• The Shimano Ultegra brakes are quiet and give excellent braking power, plus the Ultegra STI brake levers don’t need too much squeezing to bring the bike to a stop.
• The only significant issues we have with this bike are the saddle and tires. The seat doesn’t provide the comfort required for long rides. You can easily tackle this problem by getting a better saddle. The Vittoria Zaffiro tires are durable and have good grip, but they offer little feedback to the rider.

The Fuji Roubaix is a good option if you’re getting into road bike racing and looking for your first race bike. The bike is light and has some useful features which make it remarkably fast, and a pleasure to ride it.
