I grew up in rural Ohio, so we were always a couple years behind the trends on the East or West coasts. I remember a kid on my bus raving about getting a new Fuji around about 1975. I got my first 10 speed around a year later, a used Kabuki from a local shop. Prior to that, I had only known Schwinn, Raleigh, or Huffy.
