Information

2013 Fuji Gran Fondo 3.0 LE Road Bike - Performance Exclusive

Thanks to improved technology and genuine innovation, it's never been a better time to ride on the road. The 2013 Fuji Gran Fondo 3.0 begins with incredible proprietary frame and fork technology, adds lightweight Shimano component efficiency, which results in an unparalleled ride quality. The LE is a limited edition and exclusive to Performance Bicycle.

Using a longer head tube than a traditional race bike, about 10mm on a 55cm frame, the Gran Fondo creates a slightly more upright rider position in order to stave off upper body fatigue on longer rides. The Gran Fondo frame is made from Fuji's proprietary C5 high modulus carbon blend. High modulus is an engineering term which defines stiffness in fibers. Therefore, a high modulus frame has a stiffer blend of fibers which results in less flex and better transmission of power spent. Carbon fiber, used for much of its modern life in the aerospace industry, is a valuable high performance product for its lightweight, high temperature tolerance and low thermal expansion properties. The C5 frame is further refined with a Shimano press fit bottom bracket and tapered head tube. An oversized bottom bracket creates more surface area to attach the down and seat tubes, thereby creating a very stiff pedaling area. The larger press fit design also allows Fuji to move the frame material around, thinning out the seat stays and strengthening the chain stays, which puts the carbon where it matters to you most. The tapered head tube stiffens the front end of the bike for better power transmission.

The Gran Fondo 3.0 LE is fueled by a Shimano 105 drivetrain. The shifters, working in tandem with the Oval 500 Brake Design, allow for a greater level of modulation and power from the tops of the brake hoods, where most people ride a majority of the time. The 10-speed SIS 105 rear derailleur integrates the wide link design prominently featured in both Dura-Ace and Ultegra derailleurs to not only promote quick shifting, but to preserve the pivots for greater durability and long term crisp shifting performance.

Oval Concepts provide the majority of the static component package. Oval 300S and 313 series handlebar and stem are oversized for improved handling and maximum stiffness during acceleration on the drops. An Oval 300 seatpost is easy to adjust fore and aft to ensure proper pedaling position. A Selle Italia X1 saddle with FeC alloy rails features Flex Control padding and a synthetic leather cover. The elasticity and soft construction provide greater comfort in the more fragile areas of your anatomy.

Oval 327 clincher wheels with sealed hubs are outfitted to Hutchinson Nitro tires for the best blend of durability and traction. The Nitro features an optimized tread compound for improved road contact and handling.
