Another entry from an OTSG veteran. Mike D and his 1985 Fuji Espree.
Hi Cameron,
Here is a real cream-puff, my 27 year-old Fuji Espree. A great ride, totally original including the tires and handlebar foam grips. It got a good cleaning, lube and tuning, and is back on the road again. Those quad-butted Fuji frames are both comfortable and responsive. Even the old Feather saddle is not too bad!
The last picture shows the Fuji in front of most of my other old-ten-speeds, waiting for their turn to be on your site! Each one needs a dose of TLC (some more than others). Okay, there are a few oddballs in there, but most are classic 10 or 12 speed road bikes from the 70s and 80s. And I guarantee every one of them has a frame of steel – as God intended!
Mike D.
