We met up with Toyota United’s Eric Greene to check out some of the new gear for 2008. He had Dominique Rollin’s brand new race bike, the Fuji SL1 to show us.

Most of Toyota’s riders will be on this SL1, Fuji’s top of the range carbon frame, made from C-10 SuperLite high modulous carbon with a 3k weave underneath the team paint job. With the exception of Ivan Dominquez who opts to ride the stiffer Aloha frameset.

Toyota rides with Shimano Dura Ace exclusively, drivetrain and pedals.

Bontrager is the team’s official component supplier, stems, seatposts, and wheelsets. Most of the time the riders will be riding on Bontrager Aeolus 5.0, except for mountainous stages, where the team will break out the Race XXX wheelset for lighter weight.
