In 1971, Fuji introduced its iconic S10-S model in the US. Reviewers raved about it, whether in the bicycle publications or Consumer Reports. It remains, to this day, one of the best thought-out bikes ever made: Its frame was built from double-butted high-tension steel, with clean brazing at the lugs. The geometry was a classic 73 degree by 73 degree, found on racing bikes of the time but entirely appropriate for light (or even medium-load) touring. It's no surprise, then, that S10-S bikes have been raced, ridden on transcontinental tours, and used for just about every other kind of riding imaginable.
The Fuji S10-S did more than any other bike to show American cyclists that Japanese bikes and components were as good as--and, in some instances, superior to--what other countries were making and now you can purchase one as well.
