Unfortunately i don't have a heat gun so that may have to wait a bit.

Nice bike - Congrats!
I think the GF is a great bike for the money. I sold mine on, but was impressed by the ride quality - mine was a 2012, and they've updated the frame since then, so I'd imagine it is even better.
Enjoy!

*** Update***
Well after a lot of looking and stressing, I finally pulled the trigger and got the Fuji Gran Fondo 2.1!! I have to say "WOW" what a fun bike! The combination of larger tires, full carbon frame, and anti vibration tech makes the ride very smooth, yet still fairly athletic feeling ad well. I've taken it on a few rides now and plan on a longer one this weekend.

Sorry for the noob question but what’s the thinking behind suggesting to remove the rim decals? Is it just for aesthetics or is there another reason?
I’m a relatively inexperienced rider but have just ordered a GF 2.1 today! Have to wait a week before it comes in. Can’t wait.
Thanks.
