Really Nice Bike!
To anyone wondering about this bike, it started as Fuji’s flagship for release in the United States when Fuji America was formed in 1971. I put a lot of energy into restoring a 1971 model and the effort was worth it. (Mine is NOT for sale.) Very refined ride. Long wheelbase makes it very stable but the tubing is light. I had a blast riding it at the Wine Country Century worker’s ride on Sunday.
This model looks like it is in fabulous shape for its age. The chrome is well done on them. Mine had a much harder life and the chrome still survived mostly intact and very presentable.
Good luck with the sale. I think this bike will make the right person very happy.
