If you're reading this, surely you are aware of cyclocross: a muddy, exhausting way to spend a Sunday morning. Should you be suffering from whatever it is that compels people to do 'cross, or merely lusting after a truly versatile road/off-road bicycle, we present the Fuji Cross. This is no hybrid or dirtified road bike. Produced in six sizes, Fuji's Cross is light, quick and race-ready, frame, wheels and parts. Components? What isn't (carefully selected) Shimano 105, Ritchey or Avid is Selle Italia, Zoom or Time. Frame and fork are Cro-Moly steel, cables appropriately routed. Race-ready.
That said, as fine a 'cross tool as a Cross is, it's a great "everything" bike. A Cross won't complain if you don't race it. You can ride trails and short road rides as-is. Or put skinny road tires on it; It'll roll like a road bike. Or mount fenders and lights on it and commute to work. Or put fat road tires on it, bolt a rack on it and it'll tour like a... Well, not like a Fuji Tour, but darned well. Great 'cross bike, great "anything" bike: Fuji Cross.
