1998 Fuji TEAM....with a crank arm story....
These are shots of the 61cm Fuji TEAM I bought from its original owner a few weeks ago. It's also part of a thread I had started on not being able to get the one original pedal off (thanks for all the ideas, guys!!), but in the end I wound up replacing it with one I had last night. I fought the good fight, but the !@#$% pedal won out!
I replaced the FIZIK saddle with a much more comfortable Body Geometry. Original owner had replaced tires not long ago, so besides the crank are replacement, all I did was wax the daylights out of it. Some minor scratches and one tiny ding in the top tube. Still, not bad for being 14 years old.

I started this link (above) because I had given up on getting the pedal out. The story was basically all the help I was offered, some with pics on what to do. Well....not really a story, now that I think of it (duh!!). More like a nightmare that wouldn't end until I gave up and just put another arm on it. I HATE giving up, but sometimes you just need to know which battles to fight.
