joel39 is retired foreign service officer, now home in retirement. But need help!

My bikes in the seventies nd eighties were Fujis and similar quality bikes.

Having had all nine stolen, I bought new Daweses at Walmart, and found them heavy and (even the road bikes) unwieldy and dangerous.

I am in good shape for 68, but the bike I handled so easily two years ago is now a dangerous stranger to me. I think it is that the Dawes I have bought are of different design and weight.

Therefore I seek Fuji S-10 or S-12 or similar bikes of the seventies. Does anyone out there reading this message have an S-10 Fuji, say, of the seventies for sale, or is he or she able to point me towards a reliable source for same? I would be most grateful.

Best contact is joel39@aol.com or j.rochow@comcast.net. Many thanks in advance!!!

Welcome Joel.
Check out the Classic & Vintage forum (farther down the page) for info on older bikes.

BTW: I deleted your three other identical threads. No need to hit the "Submit New Thread" button more than one time.

Hi Joel, yes, there's probably someone in Classic & Vintage who can help you. Do you know what size you need?

Welcome to BF, and feel free to PM me with any questions !
