HISTORY.
HERITAGE.
PRIDE.
FUJI
From earliest childhood, the bicycle takes a unique place in our hearts. Its mobility expands our domain, its responsiveness challenges our skills, its speed excites our senses. The bicycle allows the child the independence of man… and man the free spirit of child. But, in truth, the bicycle is more: the refinement of its technology echoes the evolution of the industrial revolution.
While the first recorded patent of a man-powered machine actually dates back to february 4th, 1645. It wasn’t until 1839 that the first self-propelled bicycle appeared. In 1861 cranks were first attached to the front wheels. Bike transportation had been born.
[The opening page of the essay HISTORY. HERITAGE. PRIDE., with the heading in spaced outline capitals on a dark plum panel at left and a large white FUJI wordmark with a gold drop shadow straddling the panel and the white page. A single text column at right carries a small uncaptioned engraving of a bearded man riding a high wheel bicycle past a couple on horseback.]

Progressing from transportation to recreation didn’t take long. The date was May 31st, 1868. Two hundred wood and iron framed machines gathered in Parc de Saint-Cloud for the world’s first bicycle race. The course covered 83 miles of roadways that would challenge today’s toughest off-road bike. Tires were solid, bone-jarring rubber. The winner, with a time of 10 hours and 25 minutes, was James Moore. At 160 pounds, the bike probably weighed more than he.
In 1874 the first rear-drive machines were created. Called the safety bicycle, they featured two wheels of equal diameter with an endless chain between the driving sprocket and the rear wheel. Among the advantages this technique offered were ease in mounting, stability in riding and the welcome ability to brake.
The true precursor of today’s bikes was born in 1893, with the advent of the dual-diamond-pattern frame design principle. Its two opposing triangles soon emerged as the most practical and popular approach, and remains so today.
A mere six years later, in 1899, Japan’s Fuji was born. The result of the merger of one of the nation’s leading bicycle importers and respected mechanical engineering firm, Fuji was ideally poised to fuse innovative technology with proven performance. And, by the development of derailleur gears in 1905, Fuji had established a solid foothold in the industry.
With the roaring twenties Fuji was Japan’s most popular bike, dominating not just the marketplace, but the newly introduced billboards along the major rail routes. In the 30’s Fuji established the first national multiple stage race between Osaka and Tokyo, and, naturally, sponsored the winning team of this “Tour de Japan.”
Fuji’s racing tradition continued beyond the 1964 Olympics, in Tokyo. Dr. Shoichilo Sugihara, Fuji’s chief engineer and world renowned competitive bike designer, coached the Japanese national team. He repeated this role at the 1972 Olympics as well. Fuji’s place in bicycle history was assured.

INSIGHT.
INGENUITY.
PRIDE.
FUJI
In 1971, Fuji America was established on our shores. Those were days during which recognition for the innovation, efficiency and craftsmanship of Japanese manufacture was reserved to the connoisseur. It was just beginning to become apparent in the field of electronics, in the automotive world it was, as yet, unknown. So our mission was clear-cut : earn the deserved admiration for what Japan’s combination of modern technology and old-world ideology could achieve. With one look, one ride, Fuji proved an exemplar.
[The opening page of the essay INSIGHT. INGENUITY. PRIDE., laid out like the earlier essay with the heading in spaced outline capitals on a dark plum panel at left and a large white FUJI wordmark with a gold drop shadow across the panel edge. A single text column at right sits above a small uncaptioned sepia photograph of a group of about 20 men and women standing before a building that carries a large Fuji script logo over a bicycle outline.]

Fuji America began with the refinement of a quality dealer network : a network that would set the standard for customer service and thus, customer satisfaction. We supported them with engineering excellence and uncompromised product quality. And we enhanced our position through our commitment to provide outstanding value at any, and every, price.
Among Fuji’s acknowledged breakthroughs in those early years was the utilization of double-butted chrome molybdenum frame sets on many popular-priced models. We were ahead of our time with the introduction of the now legendary Shimano Dura Ace componentry group. And we led the field with the diversity of a line designed to fulfill every rider’s demands.
In 1977 Fuji, in conjunction with SunTour, developed the six-speed freewheel, resulting in our 12-speed Gran Tour — a world first. Another first was our integration of sealed bearing hubs on affordable bikes. The women’s racing team we fielded in ’78 was one of the nation’s first — and certainly a factor in awakening societal recognition of women’s prowess in sports. We again led the market in 1980 with our Cambridge, an urban cyclist’s bike designed for commuting. Today, its configuration is known as Sports Fitness, one of the industry’s fastest growing segments.
The responsiveness of our products is matched only by our customer responsiveness. The two combined when we created proportionally fitted frame sizing’ as well as proportionally fitted components. It led to our leadership in the entire All Terrain Bike segment. And it is what presaged our introduction, in 1987, of the ultimate in lightweight bike material, endurance and prestige, the Fuji Titanium, first in a Road model, then in Mountain.

F21
Quality Bikes since 1899
Precision. Performance. Pride. For a purpose.
Every Fuji innovation is the product of purpose, not fad. Yes, our bikes set styles, but they are those that endure. Our determination is to accomplish what’s never been done, to satisfy needs that have never been met, to take technology beyond. This is the hallmark
[The opening page of the F21 essay, with the red striped F21 logo and the line “Quality Bikes since 1899” in blue across a black panel at left and the heading “Precision. Performance. Pride. For a purpose.” over a text column at right. A photograph below the text shows a computer monitor displaying a frame graphic design, lettered FUJI on the tubes with a partly hidden “SILHO” logo. Text from the preceding page shows faintly through the thin paper in the center of the page.]

of our achievements in two decades of American endeavor. But that was than… today we breach a new threshold.
We embark on 1991 with a new independence, a spirit that will infuse the Fuji of the future. We call it F21: Fuji in our 21st year, Fuji primed for the 21st century. It is a vision realized, dramatically, demonstrably, on the pages that follow.
The Fuji 1991 collection is a resounding reflection of our new-felt freedom. We’ve searched the world over for the best resources, we’ve researched cycling science for the best solutions. We’ve succeeded. You’ll see it in bikes utilizing the finest frame materials ever, such as Titanium tubing crafted by Sandvik,
whose technological know-how is an imperative of America”s space efforts. You’ll recognize it in performance-selected componentry, such as those from Campagnolo, the Italian artisans revered for a dedication to quality that equals only our own. And you’ll feel it in every Fuji.
Throughout our line you’ll find engineering refinements, both subtle and striking. They are the result of young, dynamic design, research and marketing teams who are, first and foremost, demanding cyclists themselves. They’ve grown up riding America’s roads and trails. They, as you, have searched for precision and reliability from every element of every bike they’ve ever ridden. They’ve shared your
demand for uncompromised value. Everyday they challenge their bikes and themselves, to perform as never before. The result is Fuji ’91.
[The second page of the F21 essay, three columns of running text with a photograph at upper right of a photo studio in which a person kneels among three bicycles beside a video camera on a tripod. One of the bicycles is a road bicycle with dropped handlebars and a white saddle and another has a purple frame. Mirrored headings from the following page show faintly through the paper at the top.]

F21’s Concept
ATB
Purpose : All Terrain
Man in nature, the rough conquered. The ride is rugged, the emotion, exhileration. The magic is maintaining symmetry between weight and durabillity, responsiveness and reliability. Fuji is a master of ATB, and these newly engineered features for F21 is why. They’ve been incorporated into 3 distinct classes of ATB, each appropriate for the type of rider you are. The Sport models were designed to challenge, not intimidate, the novice. Our race-capable Expert class bikes are for daily enthusiasts. the ultimate, our Pro series, is engineered to endure the rigors of competition.
UltraTrac fork
The vital link between rider and trail, the fork translates the rider’s skill into the bike’s response. Controlling, as it does , tracking and steering, it takes careful implementation of demanding criteria to assure that functionality is never compromised. That is what is embodied in Fuji’s new Ultratrac fork technology. The “Sport” design is crafted of Ishiwata cromoly tubing which tapers in wall thickness from 1.3mm to 0.9mm. thus, strength is present where needed, while resiliency and weight savings are also achieved. In the “Pro” model, the thichness varies in 3 increments, 1.2mm, 0.9mm and 0.6mm while dropouts are investment cast for added solidity and responsiveness.
Paraguide Seatlug
All too aften taken for granted, the seatlug is critical for accurately securing the rear triangle to the main frame. In Fuji’s investment cast Paraguide, it has also been enlisted to act as a directional guide for the rear cantilever and derailleur cables. Special channels lead the rear brake cable directly to the cantilever, unhindered by cable housing or hanger. By the same means, the rear derailleur cable detours the traditional bottom bracket-where dirt and moisture can stop it dead in its tracks. Clean, functional design for optimal performance is the hallmark of Fuji F21 engineering.
[The opening page of F21’s Concept ATB, with the heading in white on a purple band whose lower edge is cut as a red-rimmed mountain ridge, above an introduction headed “Purpose : All Terrain” and two feature columns. Two small photographs show the front fork and cantilever brake of a white mountain bicycle with knobby tires and tan sidewalls and the seat cluster of a speckled lavender frame with its rear cantilever brake and cable routing.]
— Page 9 —
73mm Botton Bracket Shell
As tires get more aggressive, chainstay clearances get more critical and correct crankarm positioning may be compromised. The new 73mm bottom bracket, standard on many of Fuji’s ’91 ATBs, compensates for this . It provides a wider bearing stance in the crankset axle, minimizing crank flex , while allowing ample tire clearance.
Double Taper Seatstays
Traditionally, seatstays maintain a single diameter from seatlug to rear dropout. Fuji has reexamined this approch and finds it wanting. Thus, our double taper seatstays. To understand this innovation, envision the diameter gradually changing from 16mm at the top, to 19mm at the cantilever brake boss, for less brake flex and more stopping power, to 13mm at the dropout. Meanwhile, wall thickness is consistent throughout. This optimizes the balance between strengthand weight.
DuraFlex Saddles
Any less and you’ll know it instantly. Fuji’s new design, 12 month in the making, optimally balances comfort, durability and weight and wraps it all up beautifully. The material, though lightweght , is tough and scuff resistant. It repels moisture and actually absorbs road shock and vibration, providing unsurpassed comfort. The DuraFlex is truly the ultimate bicycle saddle.
[The second page of F21’s Concept ATB, three feature columns over a mostly blank upper half, with the purple band of the facing page just reaching its top left corner. Three small photographs show the bottom bracket, triple chainset and front derailleur of a blue mountain bicycle, the rear triangle and cantilever brake of a blue frame, and a black saddle with a DuraFlex logo on a black seatpost. Large headings from other pages show faintly through the paper at the top.]

F21’s Concept
Sports/Fitness
Purpose : Sports Fitness
Riding for the best reasons, to tone your state of health and tickle your state of mind. That’s what Sports Fitness is all about. In a word, fun. Which is why designing Fuji’s F21 Sports Fitness bikes was such serious business.We made them go where you want to go — pavement, path or park. To this versatility we added efficiency and reliability. And we kept the “feel” light, zippy and free. To make riding as simple or selective as any rider would like, we offer everything from a 1-speed to a 21-speed. And, to help these bikes achieve it all, Fuji’s incorporated the following.
Sports Fitness Geometry
Unique functionality requires unique form. It’s engineered into our Sports Fitness frames. They were designed to take whatever is dished out by the surfaces on to which you take them while providing comfort and control. And even in the same style, the geometry was altered for each individual size. How’s that for a greater measure of precision?
SCCR FTS Fitness Tires
Tough enough for rough going, light enough for a smooth ride, uniquely shaped for less rolling resistance and more control. Tires that help keep the rider from tiring. That’s what SCCR’s new FTS tires give you. And why Fuji’s Sports Fitness bikes have them.
Shimano Rapid Fire Shifting
You go through all the gears with just thumb. It’s more than just less effort and ease… it means your hands stay put on the handlebar, putting you more in control of handling.
Shimano SLR Braking
Another way Fuji Sports Fitness bikes give you a hand is when it comes to hand fatigue. Special return springs in both the brake levers and cantilevers mean they respond with less effort, perform with more power… the feel is light, yet sure. And you’ll surely appreciate that in stop and go riding.

F21’s Concept
Road Competition
Purpose : Road Competition
When every stretch you ride, even when going it alone, becomes an inner challenge to excel, you’re a rider who understands ‘road competition.’ And the bike you aspire to ride is a Fuji. Our winning tradition extends well back before F21 — yet these ’91s are the bikes that will be remembered. Leading the pack is our Titanium Road, the bike ‘that couldn’t be improved.’ Only Fuji proves otherwise, and we’ll highlight the features that did it. We’ll also pay homage to what will make the whole line first across the finish line.
Sandvik Ti-3Al-2.5V Titanium Tubing
Search out the world’s premier source for titanium good enough to hurtle astronauts into space. Set them on a mission more fun than fashioning the Stealth Bomber. The result : a tubing alloy of 94.5% titanium, fused with 3% aluminum and 2.5% vanadium. We thoroughly test the tubing along its entire length, cold working it and stress relieving it until the tensile strength can withstand 132,000 pounds per square inch. Remarkable.
Precision Titanium Welding and Alignment
In fashioning our frames, we take unique steps. Welds are performed at 3100°F, using a patented technique that completely isolates and destroys any atmospheric contaminants that could weaken the weld. The frame is mounted on a specially prepared engineering table, where each is strenuously inspected and measured for alignment, using state-of-the-art equipment. The final steps are lovingly conducted by the most precision instrument of all, the human hand.
Titanium Registration
As with all works of art, these frames are signed and numbered. Each is documented with production date and data, size and finish recorded. The production technician signs it. And then we file it for posterity. Not for evidence, but because we’re proud.
Ishiwata Si35 Tubing
The cromoly that’s long played a role in Fuji legend. Triple butted with three wall thickness variations throughout the tube to optimize strength-to-weight ratios. It’s stiff where it should be, resilient where it must be, performing like no other tubing, Ti-3Al-2.5V Titanium excepted.
Frame Geometry
For ’91, we’ve extended our top tubes. Before you pull out your old protractor, here’s what that gets you : a shallower seat tube with slightly steeper headtube. That equates to a shorter front center dimension. And that equates to high-speed stability and responsiveness. The new seat tube angle also improves the rider’s position for climbing and spinning. While that’s perfection, well, we didn’t leave well enough alone. Every available size has been modified accordingly, not merely proportionally. Each carries its own complete dimensions, including fork rake. That assures you of that remarkable Fuji ride, regardless of size.
