I'm just getting back into biking, so I'm happy with an intro, until I lose enough weight to make buying a nicer bike worthwhile.

That's a nice bike, full Tiagra components, carbon fork, disc brakes. You really get a lot of bike with Fuji.

I suppose I need to get a better shot of it, but this has been getting most of the miles as of late.

still debating about ditching the red bar tape for black, at the least i'm gonna swap the tape for lizard skins. 2013 Synapse Carbon 4. needs a few little things, K-edge for the garmin, hood covers are a little worn and should be replaced, want a new wedge pack. weather hasn't cooperated to much with me so I have only a few miles (like 3 or so) on it since I got it. sposed to warm up next week though so I'm optimistic.

Currently in gravel mode. Use Rubino 28mm when in road mode and drop the frame bag.

Hello everyone. I am new to this forum and I do apologize if I am posting this in the wrong place but I need some assistance. I just bought a Fuji Roubaix 1.5 2014 model for 799. I was also really looking to get the Fuji Sportif 2.3 2015. I am really stuck and do not know what to do. I am strongly debating on returning the Roubaix and getting the Sportif but I am not sure that is the right choice. This is my first bike in almost 14 years and I am just starting to get in to cycling. Can I please have some help from some people that know more about this then I do. I would really appreciate it. Thanks.

Why were you interested in the Sportif over the Roubaix? Both have a relaxed geometry, the Sportif more so than the Roubaix, but not too far off.

The Roubaix is about 5lbs lighter, is a 10spd (as opposed to the Sportif's 8spd), and has better components. Personally, I'd say you did just fine with the Roubaix.

Regardless of the weight; I am very happy riding the bike around central, southern Penna along the Susquehanna River.

That is a beautiful bike.

I took about a pound out of it swapping the parts out, and added it back with pedals, cages, chain catcher. It's around 18.8 now.

I upgraded as follows:

Lightweight tubes (about 40g lighter per wheel = (-80g)
Swapped to my preferred saddle (-35g)
Zipp Contour SL SS Carbon handlebar (-126g)
Selle Italia Smootape Corsa + bar plugs (matches saddle) (-100g) - FYI those cannondale bar plugs weigh in around 30g alone, and mine came with their heavier synapse type tape.
Metallic poutine headset cap + steerer reduction (-34g)
Zipp Service Course SL Seatpost (-62g)

total loss -437g

I added back around 420g between pedals, cages & chain catcher.


Final weight of this setup (with garmin GSC10, magnets & Edge out front mount:

18.64lbs (8455g)

scored this forgotten LOOK 555 frame from rafters of friends bike shop when he moved to larger location. super bro hookup.
he built it up with my old rival group, some takeoff ultegra stoppers, FSA SLK light carbon cranks, my easton ea90s, parts bin FSA bars and easton stem and the carbon post from his devinci leo. conti 4000 tires, lizard skins, my flite ti and old ATAC pedals(deal with it). havent weighed it yet but it feels way lighter than the sum of those parts would imply, im guessing sub 17. gotta chop the resale b oner.

The Sportif is Fuji's Intro Endurance line, and Roubaix is Fuji's intro racing line. My advice would be to go back and road test the Sportif for at least a few miles to determine if it is a better fit for you. If you like the Sportif frame more then the Roubaix, then get a Sportif. You might want to consider the Fuji Sportif 1.3 C - 2014 (I'm guessing you're shopping at Performance Bikes, so even if they don't have this bike in stock, they can order it, and it will be in, in about a week). It is the most similar version (or better) to the Roubaix that you have. The 9 speed Sportif is $750. The 1.3 C is a Tiagra 10-speed for $799.

The Roubaix does have a more aggressive frame than the Sportif. Only you can determine which one feels more comfortable to you, and which one you're more likely to look forward to riding each day.

Makes sense, I just knew the Roubaix was more relaxed than the Altamira or the SST.

Well, I figured that some of the more higher priced racing bike may have even more aggressive geometry than the Roubaix, but the Roubaix is still more aggressive than the Sportif.

As a newbie myself (50+; Clyde), I figured that I won't be racing for quite a while. I need to lose weight and get my fitness up before I even consider racing. The more relaxed geometry is better for me. I even have a hard time getting into the drops on my Sportif (more because of my flexibility and my belly than fit).

Only Fujison can determine which geometry is a better fit for him. And road testing is the only way for him to find out. He has to figure this one out for himself.
