Anyone heard of the bicycle brand FUJI?

Question

i am looking for a bike and the cheapest of the few i like is a FUJI Nevada 1.0 has anyone heard of this and is it a good entry-level mountain bike? the other choices are SPECIALIZED ROCKHOPPER DISC, TREK 6000 all 2008 models. they range from @ $540 - $700 from what my research has shown me...

Answer 1

Fuji is ok. Made in Japan. Good entry level bike.

Answer 2

I actually own the Fuji Nevada 1.0. I bought it several weeks ago and love it so far. I believe it is a great entry-level bike. It has handled everything I have put it through so far with ease, some stuff being pretty advanced. As far as your other choices, I like the Specialized (believe it and Fuji are comparable). Im not a fan of Trek so I cant comment on that one.

Answer 3

I've been riding and racing Fuji since 83 check out the jersey in my Avatar.  I have had many Fuji bikes and they have all perfomed very well, I ride/race road so no idea of the Nevada but as far as a brand Fuji is great.

Answer 5

Fuji has been around since the late 1960s. Originally built in Japan they are now built in China or Taiwan depending on the model.

They used to be some of the best bikes made, now they are pretty much in line with everyone else. Good value for the price.

The Nevada 1.0 is a good all terrain bike... intended for off road on medium terrain, cross country... definitely not for big drops or jumps.

I would take the Fuji over your other options.
