The guy at the bike shop sold you a Fuji and now everyone at the club is laughing at you. They all ride Colnago, Bianchi, Canyon\u2026 You didn\u2019t know anything about brands and were told that Fuji bikes were great. What do you do now?<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Trust bike shops\u2013they understand bikes<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Bike shops are under a lot of pressure to get stock in and out the door and, right now, that\u2019s a difficult job. Just because you\u2019ve been sold an obscure brand doesn\u2019t mean you\u2019ve been sold a bad bike. Think about what bike is best for you.<\/p>\n<\/lite-youtube>\n

I wanted my first adult road bike to be a Bianchi, but my local bike shop said no. They held the front wheel between their legs and sat me on it\u2013the bike I wanted had far too much reach for my body shape. When you\u2019re buying a bike from a shop, you\u2019re also paying for the experience of the salesman. They sold me a Trek and I\u2019ve never looked back.<\/p>\n

Insane tech specs<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Check out the reviews Fuji attract and you\u2019ll see a common theme\u2013pleasant surprise at the value you get for your money. Fuji have been around for decades and, despite changing ownership several times, they still produce bikes that look incredibly attractive on paper.<\/p>\n<\/lite-youtube>\n

Your mind is unlikely to associate the name \u201cFuji\u201d with racing pedigree, but this review demonstrates that this doesn\u2019t matter\u2013details do. And if a wallet-friendly bike presents itself with a sub 1kg frame, you\u2019d be a fool not to consider riding it home.<\/p>\n

If your Fuji was stolen<\/strong><\/h2>\n

I\u2019ve twice bought bikes for less than \u00a330, and one was stolen\u2013but I can\u2019t fault the thief\u2019s good taste. So, let this be a test\u2013if you bought a brand-new Fuji, would you be upset if it was stolen? Yes, you would. So learn to lock your bike.<\/p>\n<\/lite-youtube>\n

The only thing I regret about my bike being stolen<\/a> was my failure to lock it up properly. I loved that it rode well, and even now, I love that I can\u2019t remember what brand it was. I just remember that it was red, cheap, and fast. Honestly\u2013what more do you need from a bike? Enjoy your Fuji.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
