Gotta admit--when I did comparisons, it had me wondering why we don't hear more about Fuji. Maybe just not as many dealerships which handle Fuji?
I started off on a Fuji Absolute 1.5 five years ago and loved it. Transitioned to a Fuji Jari 1.5 last year and love it even more. If the fit is right, I would definitely recommend the Fuji brand.
