Thanks T-Mar! You're right, It actually does not slope forward. The horizontal part of the frame at the crank slopes, and it made me think it did. I'm fairly short 5'2" Asian female and thought this was a good fit, so I bought it. It does feel like it was scaled down for a small person, but not a youth. How ingenous. So is this the low end bike of it's time? It feels sturdy and a very nice ride. I read on a FUJI history page http://www.bicycleman.com/fuji/fuji_history.htm where they credit themselves first to develop the idea of 22/27 combination of tires.

This is the first time I have ever read component names or numbers, so bear with me..

Nitto Stem at handlebars o22(0.875)
Nitto Olympiade Handlebars no nbr loos like aluminum
Brake grips Diacompe Junior
Diacompe Brake G N500 (front)
1185 M (rear)
Sugino Seat Stem (meter increments run along it to adjust)
Fujita "Feather saddle 7379
Shimano pedals SY 1 (Black parts= MKS RR5)
SUGINO (cranks?) 165 1 GC & 165 3 GC
Suntour LePree ( I don't see a nbr, I think this is the derailer)
SUGINO RT 52
Rims: UKAI 24 x 1 1/4 WO Japan

Apologies for my sorry reporting. If there is another number you need, tell me where to find it!
