Fuji SL Elite
Details
Impossibly light and stiff, Fuji’s SL Elite is a testament to innovation that will accompany you in your cycling pursuits, whether it’s crossing the line first or pushing past what you thought you were capable of. With a claimed weight of 11.4 pounds, the SL is born out of the quest to create one of the lightest bikes in the world. The featherweight, super-stiff C15 ultra high-modulus carbon frame carries you up steep climbs and down sharp, sinuous descents with supreme confidence. A tapered full-carbon fork adds minimal weight and precise, razor-sharp handling through tight corners and sweeping descents. The incredibly low weight is assisted by Reynolds RZR 46 carbon tubular wheels and Vittoria tires that offer instant acceleration, effortless climbing, as well as unbeatable traction through corners, while SRAM’s RED eTap 11-speed electronic drivetrain offers crisp, perfect shifting at the touch of a button. Fuji rounded out the SL with slight yet powerful EE Cycleworks brakes, Richey SuperLogic carbon seatpost, SuperLogic Vector Evo Streem saddle, and carbon handlebar that keep this cutting-edge bike astonishingly light.
Electronic drivetrain systems deliver excellent shifting, easy set up, and solid battery life. Here are some benefits of electronic shifting that you don't want to miss.
Shifting Performance
Electronic shifting systems use powerful servo motors to rapidly shift the chain. Because microprocessors and sensors constantly monitor every aspect of the system, they shift with surgical precision and without chain rub.
Customization
Many major systems have customizable shifting. Some have the ability to add remote shifters for common riding positions, and some even allow you to change the functions of the shifting buttons.
Dependability
Electronic groupsets are responsive and consistent. There are no cables to stretch and wear out, so you get a flawless shift every time. The added bonus is you'll never have to replace a derailleur cable ever again.
