I used to have a modern Fuji Touring and now I have a Miyata 610. The Miyata frame is a lot nicer. The components are what you'd expect on a good bike from the 80's-- pretty clunky compared to what we have now but quite workable and probably more reliable than modern parts. My bike is set up as some kind of mutant cyclocross with 700x38 tires and it's really cool.

It's a really nice bike but I don't know about paying $225 for it. Not that it isn't comparable to bikes costing more than that, but you can probably find one a lot cheaper. Mine was $40.
