Fuji Transonic 2.5 Le Road Bike 2016 Performance Exclusive

Fuji Transonic 2.5 LE Road Bike 2016 Performance Exclusive. The Transonic 2.5 LE is Fuji's foray into the fast growing aero segment of the high performance road bikes and a Performance Exclusive. Built around Fuji's patented and highly lauded C5 high modulus carbon frame and FC 440 fork, and equipped with Shimano's Ultegra component group, the Transonic 2.5 LE is will help you take your riding to another level. The Fuji Transonic frame has been designed to reduce its coefficient of drag, in other words to optimize aerodynamics to help you save energy over time and distance. Fuji's engineers spent thousands of hours wind tunnel testing the Transonic frame. The result is a synergistic energy saving advantage. The frame uses a wide cross section tube shape made from C5 high modulus carbon fiber that cuts through the wind but also increases stiffness that helps enhance your control of the bike at speed. There's an aerodynamically contoured head tube fork downtube junction, seatstays are sculpted around the rear brake, there's a wheel hugging seat tube, and that aero seat post uses an integrated seat clamp. All of these features, all of these details, add up to creat a frame that offers you greater riding efficiency and supreme comfort for long distance rides. . The Performance Limited Edition of the Transonic 2.5 is equipped with Shimano Ultegra 6800 11 speed components. Shimano Ultegra contols feature an ergonomic hood and lever design that draws inspiration directly from Shimano's flagship component groups. The result is controls so comfortable to shift, it almost feels intuitive. This latest version of Ultegra also has a fundamental redesign of the front derailleur, with a longer lever arm for more effective and precise front shifts. The rear derailleur has also been redesigned to be lighter and more responsive, making shifting across the entire cassette easy and crisper, with virtually no hesitation. The Transonic 2.5 LE also features a mid compact 5236 Oval crankset and a wide range Shimano 1128 cassette, a gearing spread that works for challenging climbs or white hot hammering on the flats. Oval Concepts hardware completes the build, with aluminum stem and handlebars, and a pair of Oval Concepts 327 clinchers that are perfect for training, racing, or gran fondos. You've made the choice to go aero, the next choice is easy: the Fuji Transonic 2.5 LE.
