1984 Team Fuji

mine has yellow bar tape. picked it up yesterday, pretty good shape. just needs a new front wheel and has minor scratches and rust. heres the problem, it was going to be my first single speed...but looking at the original components i dont want to remove anything...what to do |
friday i got one of those in a trade. its in really bad condition, so i'm gonna convert it for a beater.
if its in good shape, however, keep it geared. |
everything on it is fine except for the front wheel...needs minor stuff.
new brake cables, shifter cables...thats about it...guess i shall have no single speed |
I would consider converting it if that's what you want. Just keep all the gears,etc so you can build it back up that way when you are sick of SS/FG.
|
If everything is functional, I say keep it as is and overhaul/restore.
I love 80s Fuji Team rode bikes. My Fuji Tiara is a lower model, but I love riding it every time. What size did you buy? |
not sure, either 52 or 54 cm.
im a new at bike mechanics and i suck terribly. the fds on the team fuji and my jamis ventura were not shifting so i adjusted the cable tension and it played a little with the limit screws and they shifted fine...on the workstand. i went to ride them today and apparently accomplished nothing...off to the bike mechanics forum |

yeah i noticed a little flip-flop pin that has friction mode and something else.
didnt really pay attention to it. |
A bike like that doesn't deserve a conversion to ss IMO... unless you keep the orig. components and bring it back to its former glory at some point ;)
