Strengths: weight, components, carbon forkWeaknesses: noneBottom Line: After road riding with a 27lb Giant ATX for 7 years, i'm shocked and mesmorized at the speed, power and weight of this hardware. I've seen the light on road bikes, and this one is very bright.
Favorite Ride: behind the fastest car

Strengths: Price. Weight. Components.Weaknesses: Customer service for repairs. Water bottle bosses. Paint does chip easy.Bottom Line: This is a good bike for a good price. After 3 months, I had some problems with the bike which soured me a little. The bottle cage bosses came loose so I could not use the cages then the rear wheel broke some spokes. The bike sat for 1 month while trying to get parts and tools. Both problems were fixed under warranty but still not good for a brand new bike. The bike is working fine now and no other problems.

Strengths: the stiff frame puts the power right to the road when i sprint. carbon seat stays make every road surface plush. 61cm with componets wights just under 17 lbs. climbs very wellWeaknesses: noneBottom Line: the Fuji Team Issue is the best bike i could have purschased! The scandium tubing gives it great stiffness in the sprints, and the carbon seat stays smooth out the bumps in the road. replaceable derailer hangers

Strengths: price-equiptment-weight-performance-fork-tubingWeaknesses: paint- fuji name-mostly mail order- nothing elseBottom Line: excellent excellent performer. stiff-responsive-light-priced almost a thousand less than anything comparible. easton tubing-ultegra components -ritchey wheels- carbon 1/1-8 fork- aero bladed spokes-sub 18 lbs. the bike handls and is a s light as anything out there. it does'nt have the fancy name like the colnago etc etc, but it literally cost 1/3rd their price. if you are a real person with real bills and a family with responsibilities, but need a road bike this is the way to go. the only down side seems to be the poor or easily chipping paint, but my KESTREL also did this. get this bike and go on the road and blow the fancy bikes away.

from Portland, OregonDate Reviewed: August 2, 2001
Strengths: Very good deal for the price. Can't find a lighter more race-ready bike for the moneyWeaknesses: I've broke the frame at the drive-side drop-out, right through the derailer hanger screws. Colorado Cyclist took it back no questions asked because it's been a common problem.
Also, the paint was chipping off just from touching it,
the ride was a bit jarring and the seat was uncomfortable.Bottom Line: If it wasn't prone to structural failure and chipping, it'd be a good racing bike. It'd probably suit a recreational rider better as I don't get the feeling they are made with much attention to detail.
Favorite Ride: West Hills

Bike Setup: It came fully equipt, with a great American Classic seat post and Reynolds carbon fork, but heavy Ritchey wheels.
