find the right bike :)

Found this all-original 1983 Fuji Touring Series on eBay last year, and have 
just finally gotten around to giving it a minor Rivish makeover.  I wanted to 
leave it as original as possible, but I simply had to give it a Brooks saddle, 
swap the narrow touring bars and down tube shifters for wider bars (Noodle 48s 
with Dirt Drop stem) and bar-end shifters (vintage Shimano, spring-loaded).  
And although I would like to run fatter tires, width choices for 27 inch rims 
are very limited.  The wheels are beautiful, though (40-spoke rear, 36-spoke 
front) and I went with the widest 27x 1 1/4 tire I could find - Panaracer 
Paselas... It rides beautifully, so I will stick with the current setup for now 
(before considering changing to 700c wheels)..

I will add racks, bags and fenders next.  This ride quality of this bike is 
exceptional.  BB

Nice! I missed one on Craigslist for $200 (!) by an hour or so. I'm always
on the look out for one of these. Enjoy.
