Fat?

Yes, it's fat. And like I said it isn't as deep as other headtubes either.

Below are the head tube width dimensions from cyclenutnz:

Fuji Norcom Straight 48/43/53
Trek Speed Concept MKII 32/32/37.
Cervelo P3C 35
Cervelo P2C 35

I wonder what the obrea ordu is? The NS looks so similar to that bike...

Might be the old one, but the list says 49mm. frame tubing measurements list. None of the Orbeas have tested well in the WT.

Cervelo P5 45/38

Also probably worth noting is that, unlike the Cervelo models, the NS has the brake behind the fork crown. This requires a wider head tube at the base to 'blend' things into the down tube, but also eliminates the drag created by a front-facing brake.

I didn't list the P5 or other bikes with really deep headtubes because it isn't really comparable. The Norcom's headtube isn't even 3-1, but the P5 is way over that.

It's hard to look at the headtube when you get distracted by that mess of a base bar.

Better?

Yes! Fuji should hire you to clean up that front end.

Just thought I´d update... I went for a Felt DA4 in the end.[/img]

Sorry for the lousy mobile picture... Anyway, I got rid of the Vision 52/38 chainset and put on my Gossamer with Sram 54/42 chainrings. The wheels got changed asap as well. I will need to get the 70 x 30 stem as well to get a proper fit and to make sure the UCI will be happy. A bit weird that it comes stock with just one fixed position stem.

Oh, by the way I had to get a 0 offset seatpost as well to make it function in UCI TTs.
