      Yes. Is it 50x better? Will you have 50x more fun?

    $3k is a good price IMO. It's two years old and the rim brakes are now very outdated as everyone has moved to the far superior disk brakes. Needs to be sold at clearance/cost IMO given the speed of the markets move to new technology since this bike was new.

    • jasonc on 12/01/2020 - 13:54

      My next bike will have discs but not everyone wants them. Edit tm the groupset is still current ultegra r8050

      • petal666 on 12/01/2020 - 15:56

        I'm not interested in disc, too much invested in rim brake wheels.

        • bargaino on 12/01/2020 - 17:00

          Don't worry, rim-brake rims wear out over time. Then you can get discs :-)

          I wouldn't bother upgrading an existing bike, but from MTBs, the extra control of discs is nice.
          What is the downside, other than weight? - and that is minimal now.

        Full bike pic shows old Ultegra and deeper wheels, detail shots show new Ultregra and shallower wheels (and a Pro's Closet sticker). Who knows what the bike for sale actually is. Fuji site has the same full bike pic, but the parts list claims "Shimano New Ultegra Di2".

      Love that the bike manufacturers have moved into making the trends toward disc brake bikes so I can buy used rim brake bikes cheaply from those have upgraded to the latest disc brake bikes.

      • goingDHfast on 12/01/2020 - 14:02

        Agreed. But I don't consider $4k cheap for an ultegra groupset rim brakes bike! These were being sold under $3k over 6 months ago (admittedly perhaps not di2 though).

        • petal666 on 12/01/2020 - 15:58

          So not really comparible then.

          • goingDHfast on 12/01/2020 - 16:29

            @petal666: Well it is considering that was early 2019 and prices have dropped further since.

      Plenty of far better bikes available for $500-$1000 less:

      It's two years old and the rim brakes are now very outdated as everyone has moved to the far superior disk brakes.

      • Hydraulic disc brakes require regular bleeding when being used daily.
      • New disc brake pads need to be bedded in to perform optimally.
      • They're heavier/less aero.
      • They're lot more expensive for basic parts.
      • They're more complicated to repair.

      There's a reason less than 50% of the teams in the Tour de France still haven't switched to discs; they're just not needed on road bikes.

      For mountain and cyclocross bikes, it's a different story, as mud/debris build-up on rims can effectively render rim brakes useless after a while.

      • 2ndeffort on 15/01/2020 - 00:35

        I'm no Peter Sagan but I have had some very scary moments descending a hill at 65+ km/hr on damp roads with rim brakes and carbon braking tracks. I have the special brake blocks recommended by the manufacturer for my wheelset. Additionally, and this only happens on early morning rides when we are riding past houses full of sleeping people, my brake blocks want to scream with the sound and volume of a caged banshee at the slightest touch of the levers. My next road bike will have disc brakes, if for no other reason than i would like to be able to stop on wet roads.

    Are you planning to put discount on ebike? That model online is quite old

    • Quarn on 12/01/2020 - 18:00

      Pretty sure I could ride at a parallel speed on my motorcycle, but granted I would be restraining.

  • CoreJava on 12/01/2020 - 16:28

    Fuji makes good bike, the frameset is the expensive part as they are made with some super duper alloy or carbon.

    Q) What is the difference between this and a $2000 bike?

    A) About 500g.

    Easier to diet for a week.

      You cant diet into existence a Di2 Groupset

      • itshammer on 12/01/2020 - 22:58

        What about if you eat batteries

      • bargaino on 13/01/2020 - 00:12

        Bikes are meant to be human-powered. Di2 is a slippery slope.
        Would you accept an electric transmission? (generator in bottom bracket, wires to hub motors)
        Save the weight of cogs, chain, derailleurs, shifters, cables.

        I knew a guy who went Di2, now he rides an e-Bike.

          My bike is meant to be whatever I want it to be, i dont care what anybody else wants their bike to be. I like the idea of not having to index my gears and I particularly like the idea of hitting a gear 1st time every time with telepathic speed. I've no interest in an e-bike, just like the idea of instant shifting under full load with no chance of the kerchunk…..kerchunk I used to get searching for a gear on a 10% slope while my legs and lungs were heaving. No problems with people that like mechanical but Di2 has been the best upgrade I've ever had, never going back.

          • bargaino on 15/01/2020 - 10:21

            @2ndeffort:

            Di2 has been the best upgrade I've ever had, never going back.

            This is a well-known problem with Di2. It is hard to go back to a non-Di2 bike :-)

            I think you may be missing the tone of my post. Its basically the same question as automatic vs manual transmission.
            My daily car is an auto, and I'd hate to go back to a manual, at least in the city.
            Modern auto-trans are very smooth and efficient.
            But maybe if I had the money for a sports car to drive in the country on weekends, I'd get a manual. It is personal preference.

              @bargaino: It's not really the same though. Cabled shifting has no advantage other than you don't have to charge it. It's not more fun to use etc. I have one cabled bike left, and it's a novelty to ride for about an hour, then I hate shifting. :)

      My Trek Madone cost more than this. A bke like this is probably not used as a car alternative, this is something you use for fitness/hobby/racing/socialising etc
