Fuji Mountain Bikes
"boldly go where no road has gone before"
If you need parts, service or information on your Fuji bike we'd be glad
to help. Bring it in to our shop so we can be sure you get the right
parts and accurate information. If you live too far away and can't bring
it in ~ please take it to your local bike dealer who should be able to
help you. One of the advantages of a Fuji bike is that the parts are
readily available almost anywhere!
Nowadays most quality mountain bikes have a front suspension fork but not a rear shock. This type of bike is called a “hardtail.” The front shock gives you better control on a rough trail through the woods. They are really essential for off road riders who enjoy the challenge and thrill of racing too the bottom of a descent. Shocks also add comfort, if your hands, arms or shoulders get sore or tired, a front shock will help. A shock adds to the weight of a bike and may need maintenance to keep working smoothly. If you don't ride off road you may not need the advantages of a shock, consider a comfort bike. The best way to tell what bike is right for you is to test ride several and see which feels right.
Fuji Mountain Bikes - Don't let yours get away!
Mountain bikes mean knobby tires. Mountain bikes are made to go off the beaten path. Knobby tires are great for this but on pavement, they are extra slow, noisy and wear out quickly. If you plan to ride frequently on the road consider semi knobbies, road tires or even slicks. These are faster, quieter and last much longer on pavement. These tires are OK for dirt roads and rail trails but don't offer much traction when the going gets rough off pavement. Many MTB riders rarely if ever leave pavement. If you plan to ride mostly on pavement I would suggest you test ride a comfort or hybrid type bike instead of a mountain bike. If you really plan to ride both on and off road consider getting a second pair of wheels, one with knobby tires, one with road tires. If the wheels have the same rims and hubs it will be easy to switch back and forth without the hassle of re-adjusting the gears and brakes.
If you are too far from Alfred Station NY for you to visit us for a test ride - please find a Fuji dealer in your area.
Because we cannot ship new Fuji bikes to US customers we will not respond to emails asking us to ship a new Fuji bikes to a US customer; it would be a waste of your time - and ours.
