Ryan S’s 1979 Fuji Royale

Posted

OTSG-regular, Ryan S, offers up this Fuji Royale for our enjoyment.

Hi Cameron,

Hope you are getting lots of rides in this summer.

1979 Fuji Royale

Although I keep telling myself to stop buying frame-sets and start buying complete bikes I couldn’t help myself on this one, I saw it on a Wednesday and walked away only to go back on Thursday and buy it. Just loved the orange lug lining too much and that created a vision for the bike you see here. I was lucky enough to happen across a Fuji Pantographed crank set and a take-off Fuji branded saddle at Recycled Cycles in Seattle. Craigslist will judge if anyone else likes the Orange scheme I went with. Great shot on classic Fuji of this bike back in the day http://classicfuji.com/1979_10_Royale_Page.htm.

Thanks as always for the great site.

Ryan S.

    For some reason that link isn’t working to classic Fuji even though the html address is correct. Here is the catalog link http://classicfuji.com/1979_Thumbs.htm

    Ryan S., she’s a beauty!
    Like the way you pieced it all together while remaining true to it’s fine vintage qualities. (70’s-ish?)
    Great job, and two thumbs up on the orange accents.

    Another fine effort, Ryan. I saw a vintage Fuji on the local CL the other day and thought of you. Nice work!
