Probably one of these two:
Fuji Roubaix 1.3 Road Bike - 2015
Fuji Roubaix 1.0 LE Road Bike - 2015 Performance Exclusive
Fuji Roubaix 1.3 Road Bike - 2015
Fuji Roubaix 1.0 LE Road Bike - 2015 Performance Exclusive
Fair enough. Would you say that it's better than the Trek madone 2.1, since we are comparing apples to apples and they are a similar price point?

So if you had to guess, which would be faster, which would be better for very long rides (endurance)? Thanks

for racing purposes the winner would be the Fuji Roubaix because its race oriented with its race geometry frame which puts you in a more aggressive, lower , aero position,, whereas the Trek doesn't , the trek madone is an endurance bike none race geometry.

Oh. Well I am looking more for endurance since I'm not a racer. Now mind you I don't want a snail bike, but I want to do 50 mile rides. Would Trek be better?

Here's one area where I'd share Alias' beef. That LE bike is very similar to the 1.3. Performance says it's MSRP is higher...and yet always has it on sale for less?!

even though you could go for the Fuji Grand fondo full carbon frame endurance bike geometry for about almost the same price https://www.performancebike.com/bikes..._1147242_-1___

That 'H2' fit of the Trek is a little more relaxed (for longer rides), yes. Maybe ride an alloy Giant Defy to compare.

i believe both fuji and trek make quality bikes but with fuji you're not paying extra for a more popular name. its like comparing a coach wallet to louis vuitton wallet they both make quality products but you pay more, for a more popular name.
