Fuji Track Line 2010

Here are a few shots of Fuji's forthcoming track bike line for 2010, arranged from high-end to low.

Fuji Track Elite - semi-monocoque carbon frame for the heavy hitters

Fuji Track Pro - the new Track Pro

Fuji Track Comp - the old Track Pro

Fuji Feather - new retro styled "street" track bike.

Fuji Classic - entry level track bike

The Track Elite looks pretty great, and should be a relatively affordable full carbon track frame similar to the Cervélo P3cT, although I don't know how a frame can be semi monocoque, that seems like a contradiction in terms. The Track Pro and the Track Comp look identical to the 2009 versions apart from slight variations in paintwork. The Feather is a relatively attractive "retro" version of the entry level Classic, both of which have some of the slackest geometry I've ever seen, which is not a big deal considering their intended use. All in all, some really solid bikes, especially at the top end, and it's great to see a company continue to expand its track line. Thanks to Gavin for the heads-up. More details on VelodromeUK here.

is it just me or have they relaxed the "classic"'s geo over the years? i have an '05 and theres mad toe overlap and twitch steering
(esp. compared to other entry level "track" bikes)

its too bad, makes them not so useable on a track.

It's because their low end "track bikes" aren't aimed at track racers, they're trying to tap into the "fixy" market, who want track bikes, but also want them with a comfortable enough geo to ride on the road, or whatever it is they do.
