My understanding is that Fuji sued Specialized and won. Fuji is allowing Specialized to use the name under license in the U.S. Fuji's trademark doesnt apply to Canada but Specialized's does.
Thanks for the info - I wasn't aware of that - but this isn't a bicycle frame (and even then I think there would have to be more than just use of the word Roubaix...Specialized and Fuji use the term on similar frames, so there is more overlap).
