There is an absolutely gorgeous Fuji true track bike (maybe more) at Bike Tech in Detroit, owned by shop owner Brian. It's white, with about zero miles, and sports Suntour components, if I recall correctly. If you call and he's not busy, you might be able to get more info from him. I think they used to sell Fuji bikes there, so that is a plus. The phone number at Bike Tech is 313-884-2453

BTW, the Fuji in my email address has nothing to do with bikes ... that was the name of my long ago deceased cat. Just thought y'all should know...

I might have a lead on a 70s Fuji track bike, and I'd like to know more about them. This one has steel tubing, I think it said 331 Chromoly... I don't remember if it said butted or not. Crankset is a SuperMighty from Sugino, and it looks like standard road bars, not deeper, swoopier track bars. Wheels may not be original... I think they were high flange (no cutouts) Superbe, but it was kinda dark and I didn't get a good look. Rims were some model of Araya sewups. Does anyone have any further info? Was the geometry truly "track" geometry or more road/training style? It's my size, and I've never had a legit fixie with track ends, so it's tempting!

Oh, also, any guesses on value on such a bike, assuming grungy but not battered?

Thanks! Tim
