It looks like a decent bike for the price of an ok paint job. I'm not too fond of straight-blade forks but I could live with it. We can only guess that it uses short-reach brakes and has clearance for maybe 27-28mm tires if we skip fenders.

Now that's a good deal. The bike's graphics invoke the old original Fuji's that were chromed then painted, with big panels left unpainted in chrome. I loved the look of those bikes. I'd love to have a modern 953 bike with those panels.

A beauty. Wish it was lugged, but a beauty nonetheless.

at $350 it's still overpriced.

built bike for $1K. When I googled this is was hard to say what Fuji really has on the market at this time, but here is an example:

Just curious - what do you think an appropriate price would be?

My son bought one to replace a bike that got wrecked. They are a little funky, but not too bad for $280. You'll need medium reach brakes and they have a shortish head tube. All in all, not bad looking and a decent value.

I saw one of these recently, fully built up at my LBS. It is quite attractive in the flesh.

looks like it would be a decent light touring bike but i dont see any rack eyelets.

Rear dropout & seat stay mounts for rear rack. None on the front.
Dropped another $10.
