I figured my adding the GC610's was an upgrade, but perhaps Fuji used them on some factory S10's as well.

Don,

DC 610s were the original spec, but when we went to pick it up it had Dia-Compe style no-name lookalikes on it. My wife refused to take it unless he switched brakes. I suppose Grand Compe was what he had laying around.
