I have 2 fuji cross pro bikes for sale. One was bought new in sept 09' and the other was bought march of '10, they were bought from waterfront bikes and then upgraded in march.
After this year fuji changed their models, and no longer offers an aluminum cross bike of this quality. This one includes a dura-ace/ultegra mix, and is using the fuji A6 alloy as opposed to the current altair 2, which is supposed to be 35% stronger by weight.
The following descriptions are like stock, with ultegra/durace mix except for some exeptions, but each one costs about 2200 at MSRP with upgrades.
Feel free to make me an offer on one or both bikes, or contact me if you would like to see them.

>From the 2008 catalog on the site:
Fuji utilizes three different aluminum alloys. A6 is our revolutionary quaternary phase alloy and contains magnesium, silicon, copper and other proprietary elements. It is up to 35% stronger than other, more conventional aluminum materials used in bicycle frame construction. This particular combination of elements, combined with a unique heat treatment process, actually improves weld zone strength by 30% and allows for thinner walled tubes – and therefore, a super lightweight frame - without sacrificing strength and durability.
Altair 2 and Altair 1 alloys both start with the finest grade aluminum, which is then drawn and shaped to Fuji’s specifications. Altair 2 differs slightly in that tubes made of this material are custom butted – a more intensive process where wall thickness, or gauge, is manipulated to save weight in some areas of the tube without sacrificing strength.
