Without the pretty deep blue paint, the Altamira would be a rather unremarkable bike. The stiff carbon frame, which is heavy for the material, conveys a very sporty riding position. The contrast between the voluminous down tube and extremely slim seat stays is interesting in terms of form. Unfortunately, there is no metal plate on the chainstay to protect against chain jamming. Ultegra brakes and gears are complemented by the angular Rotor cranks - a functionally convincing Shimano alternative. The components from Fuji's own brand Oval make a good impression; the saddle with a hole in the seat is comfortable, the carbon seat post flexes noticeably despite its large diameter. The bike would have a little more glamour if it weren't equipped with simple wheels and the cheapest tyres.
