Fuji 29ers

August 23rd, 2007 by Tim Grahl

Here at TwentyNineInches.com we’ve posted some grainy, out-of-focus and, generally, crappy photos. But this beats them all.

A shop owner sent me this scanned photo from a 2008 catalog of the three big wheeled offerings that will be available from Fuji.

Click the picture to see it bigger, but here’s the info on each one:

    Not bad looking. Heavy, but attractive.

    I think we’re entering the era when a mountain bike is simply a bike with knobbies. Not a 29er. Not a 26er. Not a 27′5er. Maybe?

    martini: “Entering” is the key word, I think. We’re not quite there yet, but we’re coming through that door, yes. :)

    Tim: Now I don’t feel so bad about my posted pics! (Hey! I’m a poorly paid shop rat, what can I say?)

    Is the crookedcog podcast site still active? It hasn’t had any new posts for a few months now so I was wondering if that site is now dead. Always liked listening.

    Wow what a presentation! Fuji really knows how to promote its bikes…

    Nice to have another brand out there anwering to deamnd, and increasing demand.

    MSRP’s seem a bit high for the spec? I THINK specialized even offers more bike for $900? Or do Fuji’s usually get discounted more than other brands?

    Interesting to see these. I had visited an LBS in my area that is a Fuji dealer and came home and saw this.

    I work at a Fuji shop and I would tend to say that Fuji’s do get discounted a bit more than others. Best discount though? Employee pricing…… %15 off wholesale plus $1. Guess who’s getting a Fuji 29er.
