Fuji Grand Tourer SE

I just got this and it has a tall frame and LONG 43" wheelbase. Can you tell me anything about this bike?

Probably a 1980, serial number would tell for sure. I used to own a 1979 Gran Tourer. Your bike should have a Chromoly 441 frame. These bikes are towards the lower/middle end of the Fuji line. That long wheelbase aids in a smooth and stable ride.

Of course, we will need to see photos of your bike.

Here is a link to a brochure picture.

Here is a link to a spec sheet.

That is why i grabbed it. I really like the older geometry. This has clamps and not bosses for the cables, so its older. It should build back to a real comfy tourer.
