The Altamira, which translates too “high view” is a cave located in the Cantabria region of Northern Spain. This location is held highly by the Footon Servetto Fuji pro team, so low and behold the 2011 Fuji Altamira lineup.

The 2011 Fuji Altamira series features four road bikes, a LTD (Limited Edition), 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0. The frame on the 2011 Altamira weighs 815 grams, which fits nicely with endurance riders, racers, or those that want their road bikes to be lean.

All four of the Fuji 2011 Altamira feature a tapered head tube for improved handling, oversized down tube and integrated seat stay for stiffness plus weight reduction.

A favorite in the cycling world is back in 2011, the Colnago EPS. Still a force to reckon with, the 2011 EPS is though, light and a top tier performance road bike.

The Colnago 2011 EPS is constructed of lugged carbon fiber that allows flexibility in customizing, and available in 22 different sizes. Plus this year adds the EPS Di2.

Improvements are added to the tubes, which Colnago has made stronger by the cable passageways, and the Di2 addition has not interfered with the reliability and handling the EPS is use to.

Colnago had the cables routed inside the frame on the EPS, which adds to the overall sleek and smooth look.

Available in three different colors: white, red, and black. Colors are available according to location which is picked by Colnago.

Royal Racing launched a flip book for their 2011 line of clothing (which we will show shortly), but we felt these two jerseys needed some shine by itself. Royal Racing will release soon two jerseys, one short sleeve and long sleeve made with real coffee beans!

Known as the Royal Racing Java jerseys, each use a “SE Cafe” material that claims to combat odor and moisture. Comfort is still a big play, while the sleeves are pre-curved. Highlights are 1/4 zipp neck, mesh side panels, zipped pockets located at the rear, and flat locked stitching.

The short sleeve Royal Racing Java jersey comes in sizes XS, S, M, L, XL, XXL and colors Olive, Red, Charcoal. Long sleeve is available in Red, Black, and Burnt Orange with sizes XS, S, M, L, XL, XXL.
