Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Please Help with Identifying this Bicycle

I have recently bought a bicycle on Ebay. The seller said that the bike had an aluminum frame, However when I recieved it, I immedietly noticed that the frame tubes were not oversized (as aluminum ones are) and there were "true temper" stickers on the sides of te frame. (true temper is a steel fabrication company). The seller also said that the bike was a 1998 model. The 98 model however was blue and had an aluminum frame. The seller is disputing that the bike IS aluminum, and the person whom he bought it for had "told him so".

The bike model is a "Fuji Professional". It is red, and engraved on the bottom is the characters "7C 94".
The serial number is worn past recognition .

Can anyone help me identify this bike? or point me to a resource that can?
I have contacted Fuji America with no results thus far.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

Aluminum is non-magnetic as you know. Place a small magnet of any kind on one of the main triangle tubes and see if it sticks.
