Strengths: Stiff, Carbon fork and tail, Geometry, componentsWeaknesses: the original handlebar was to strech I upgraded to a FSA SL-K carbon, also upgraded the seat tube for a RAVX SuperliteBottom Line: I got the 2008 model, I gotta say is great bike, pretty stiff, confortable enough if you are well fitted, very good response, I never had issues with any parts, very good weight, and nice looking bike, good componenst for the price, cheaper than most other brands...
You can use it for recreation or for racing, in fact it is more buid for racing purposes, the compact crankset helps a lot when climbing

Strengths: Ride, value, Fuji service.Weaknesses: FSA cranks that came with unit were garbage. Fuji replaced them.Bottom Line: '08 Roubaix Pro (Euro). Smooth ride, stiff and responsive, excellent climbing, and overall a lot of fun to ride. 50 miles into owning this bike left crank came off on a downstroke. I did not wreck, but was 20 miles from home. Called Fuji in US, dealt with Chris in warranty, he listened to my situation and immediately sent out a replacement Shimano FC R-600 crankset & BB. LBS installed them for no charge, and the original FSA cranks have been replaced. Great service from Fuji. Thakn you Chris.

Strengths: great value, minus the crankset
light for its price range
105/ultegra components
aclass wheels have stayed true so far, and work fine
OVERALL-better equipped for the price than its competitors
Weaknesses: fsa gossamer crankset started falling apart quickly (and is obviously why it is possible to have the 105/ultegra components it does at this price.)
velo/fuji saddle gave ME some numbness, but that's totally individual
Bottom Line: actually 2009 model year. Seems so far like a very good introduction to road riding. I rode a MTB on road for a year prior to getting the roubaix, and the difference was not surprisingly drastic. I'm glad I went with this level of bike as it didn't take long to acclimate to the slightly more dedicated to performance style of it, and the components on it are mostly up to hard riding. Without a great basis for comparison, I feel this is a very good aluminum framed bike and that with some component upgrades, it will continue to make a fine training and casual timed event/race bike, for me for a long time to come. I don't feel the need for carbon, because my Roubaix keeps passing lots of carbon bikes at different events. This set-up does have some obvious give-and-take, in that it has better derailleur, but worse crankset componentry than similarly priced (more expensive at least in my area) comptitors. The wheelset has worked just fine for me, though poorly reviewed. I did however get an Easton wheelset for weight/rolling resistance and to have originals as back-up set for events.

Strengths: components and riding flexibility, comfortable and stiffWeaknesses: weight.. a little shy under 20lbsBottom Line: I picked up this roubaix pro 09 for 1,0xx from my lbs when they held a sale. I'm a weekend rider and took it out right away. im very pleased with the stiff but comfortable ride. I can go aggressive at down position and not hurt my lower back. Im 5'7 and got size 54 frame. i've been deliberating back & forth on a 2.1 series trek or a peleton schwinn and this fuji brand came from nowhere like a dark horse. Ultergra rear, 105 front, cassette and break levers. felt like i got an upgrade and kept to my budget with extra money for nice pedals and accessories.. i am very happy and excited for next sunday's ride..
