What makes a better bicycle ?
There are five major steps to building a better bicycle:
Defining its purpose
Who will use it? Children? Adolescents? Adults? How will it be used? As a toy? As daily transportation? For light exercise? Serious recreation? Long-distance travel? Competition?
Defining performance characteristics
The designer has to weigh many compromises. Lighter weight either sacrifices durability or requires more expensive materials and construction methods. A wider tire absorbs bumps better, but loses more rider energy to friction. A frame designed for maximum acceleration and steering response becomes a handful when carrying a load of school books or thirty pounds of camping gear. So, the designer must decide which performance qualities are most important to the kind of use the bike will get.
Specifying components
Bicycle manufacturers don’t make their own wheel hubs, brakes, drivetrains, and so on. These are designed by specialist component manufacturers, who among them provide a tremendously wide choice of quality, performance, and price. The bicycle designer has to understand the range of components available to him, and must choose those which will provide the overall results he’s looking for.
Designing the frame
The frame is the skeleton of the bicycle. It must position the rider for maximum performance and comfort. It must position the components precisely, so that they work in perfect harmony with the rider and with each other. It must combine the structural stiffness needed to maintain perfect alignment under stress, with a degree of controlled resiliency which gives the whole bike a sense of responsiveness and unity with the rider.
Putting it all together
Here, the factory and the dealer share their knowledge, experience and skills.
The factory must make sure that each component is made with the care and precision required of it; and that each works in support of the others once they are assembled. Consistency and attention to detail are what separate the superior manufacturer from the average.
And the dealer must use his knowledge to make sure that the model and size selected are consistent with the rider’s needs; and use his mechanical skills to fine-tune and adjust the bike for optimum performance.
If all five steps are carried out well, the end result, regardless of the price, is a bicycle which works with the rider and becomes the extension both of the rider’s body and spirit.
And that’s how Fuji makes bicycles.
[A page of text in two columns under the heading “What makes a better bicycle ?”, setting out five steps from defining a bicycle’s purpose to putting it together, between two blue rules. There are no photographs.]

THE Fuji CLASS
Each manufacturer of quality bicycles sold in the U.S. has his own way of achieving his end product. Some are heavily influenced by the need to meet the demands and preferences of their customers in other countries. Some are constrained by production techniques which require frame construction or component choices no longer considered up-to-date. Some “borrow” last year’s most popular features from their competitors, and combine them into one package. But at Fuji, the process is quite different. Let’s take a close look at it.
Fuji Planning
The process starts at Fuji America headquarters in Oakland, N.J. There, research and planning are the most important activities. Great consideration and effort go into anticipating changing trends and translating them into future products. For example, the advantages of twelve instead of ten speeds for the non-racer were appreciated and translated into mass-produced, modestly priced 12-speed bikes which Fuji pioneered in 1977. The preceding year, after noting the trend among women riders toward riding diamond frames with dropped handlebars, Fuji introduced a new saddle designed specifically for serious women cyclists. But technical progress is only part of the planning. The advanced thinking covers every detail of the bike, including the recognizing of color trends two to three years in advance, or the designing of special shipping cartons which assure that the bicycle will arrive at the dealer’s in the same condition it left the factory.
Fuji Integrity
Once the trends and long-range future needs are identified, frequent meetings of Fuji’s staff, distributors and dealers subject each current model of Fuji to intensive evaluation based on reports from owners, mechanics, and members of Fuji clubs all over the country. The objective is to microscopically examine the function and characteristics of each model, and to determine how well it is meeting the changing needs of American bike riders. This is why Fuji bicycles are uniquely American, instead of being copies of what is popular in Europe, or adaptations of what sells well in Japan.
[The opening page of “THE Fuji CLASS,” two columns of text with an uncaptioned panned photograph of women racers in a criterium, one in a white jersey lettered Fuji. The heading sets Fuji as the company’s logotype between “THE” and “CLASS.”]
— Page 4 —
But perhaps the most important thing about the design process is Fuji America’s insistence on performance-matched components and functional integrity throughout the range of models. Most bicycles are manufactured to meet a specific price range. Fuji’s are designed to meet specific performance requirements. Most manufacturers start with their least-expensive model and upgrade from there to make their more expensive models. Fuji starts with the top of the line in each use category—the Fuji Professional for racing, the Fuji America for long-distance touring, the Fuji Royale II for recreational riding—and uses these top-performance characteristics to arrive at the lower-priced bikes. The result is that a mid-priced bike from many manufacturers retains some of the “feel” of their bottom-line bike, whereas a mid-price Fuji tends to retain the “feel” of the top-line Fuji. And, a Fuji never has a feature which is just there for show, or to make a model seem to be something it is not.
The model-by-model evaluation results in preliminary specifications for the next year’s models, which are then taken to the Nichibei Fuji factory in Tokyo by members of Fuji America’s management.
Fuji Pioneering
At the factory, the Fuji America specifications are reviewed by the design and production teams headed by internationally recognized bicycle racing coach and competition bike designer Dr. S. Sugihara. The latest in construction and component technology is reviewed and, where appropriate, incorporated into next year’s prototypes. The development of twelve-speed gearing for production bicycles; of mass-produced sealed bearing hubs; the technological breakthrough of VALite™ Tubing; and the development of Fuji’s exclusive SCCR tires, are all the result of this process. In fact, many now famous components and design techniques were unknown among even well-informed bicyclists before Fuji found and developed them.
Fuji Results
Next, prototypes are tested and evaluated both at the factory and by U.S. staff, distributors and dealers; and final specifications are set. Then production prototypes are built and tested, making sure once more that no detail has been missed. After all, Fuji makes bicycles for people who know bicycles; and that means that everything about a Fuji must function with uncompromising smoothness, precision, dependability and efficiency.
The end result: a line of bicycles which, Fuji owners, dealers and mechanics agree, give maximum performance, dependability and sheer riding pleasure.
That’s The Fuji Class.

The Fuji Dealer
Your new bike will represent a considerable investment on your part; so, an important part of the process of choosing it is where you buy it.
A Fuji dealer doesn’t see his business as the selling of merchandise, but rather as making his experience, judgment and product knowledge available to his customers. He and his staff are professionals who take pride in using their technical and mechanical skills and their bicycling experience to help you get the best from your investment. The high level of competence and dependability of an authorized Fuji dealer can increase your long-term enjoyment of bicycling.
Using his expertise to help you make the choices which best fit your needs, your authorized Fuji dealer will make sure that the bike you choose is the correct size for maximum performance and safety; that it has the features which fit the kind of riding you plan to do; that you select those accessories which will give you the greatest utility and enjoyment; and that your purchase fits your budget.
Once the bike and accessories have been selected, the Fuji dealer will make sure that it is assembled and fine-tuned to the very high standards of performance which Fuji America demands and of which the bike is capable.
But a Fuji dealer’s involvement with your bicycling pleasure doesn’t stop when you roll your new Fuji out the door. He and his staff want to make sure that your Fuji is properly maintained and kept in good tune. And, should you ever need his help, you can depend on your Fuji dealer to be there. He’s an independent businessman who has committed substantial capital, energy and knowledge to your continued enjoyment of bicycling. And his commitment, too, is a part of
The Fuji Class.

Fuji™ ACCESSORIES
A fine bicycle is only part of the enjoyment of cycling. Fuji America searches the world for outstanding comfort, convenience and performance accessories to help increase your cycling pleasure. Many of these accessories are only available through your authorized Fuji dealer. All have been thoroughly tested to assure you of the highest standards of performance, dependability and value. On these pages we illustrate just a few. Look for the blue, yellow and gray Fuji Assurance of Quality label on many of these products.
1. The right clothing adds to comfort and enjoyment of your bike. Fuji has selected riding shorts with a man-made suede pad for hygiene and efficiency. Available in wool/acrylic or Lycra. The Fuji cycling jersey, T shirt and sweat shirt are made of cotton/polyester.
2. Security is an important concern when you own a fine bike; so Fuji has a variety of high quality locking devices.
3. Correct position on the bike is an essential part of comfort and performance. And position is often a matter of handlebar stem length or height. Fuji carries a large selection of stems of different lengths and heights.
4. A good work stand is a great help to the home mechanic. Fuji recommends the Minoura.

14. & 15. The right tire for the kind of riding which you do is essential to maximum performance and enjoyment.
