New Fuji Altamira Road Bike
Fuji's newest road platform, the Altamira—named after (we're not making this up) a prehistoric cave and museum in Cantabria, Spain, where the Fuji-sponsored Footon team is based—boasts frame weights as low as 815 grams.
There are two versions of the frame—the high-end LTD and 1.0 models use higher grades of carbon than the 2.0 and 3.0 models—but all frames share a tapered head tube with 1.5 lower bearing and a press-in BB86 bottom bracket system. The Altimera line starts with the Shimano 105-equipped 3.0 ($2,549) and runs up to the Dura Ace Di2-equipped LTD ($9,449).
