  • forms: The difference between the charge plug racer and fuji track is £150. I definately need a brake for the fuji. Would the extra £150 of the charge plug racer be a better deal or should I can go much further with the fuji track with the £150 upgrades (new wheels..etc)?

    Hey again. In my opinion, £150 wouldn't get you that far... You would have to buy a front brake (depending on how good you want this to be, i'd say £15 to £40 - unless second hand). You'd also probably want to buy a new sprocket (and maybe lockring).
    So for arguments sake, lets say you end up with £120 difference between the Fuji and Charge. There's no way you could get a new wheelset that will stand up against the charges for that (again unless you find a second hand bargain).

    All in all, the Charge is better for me, because everything is sealed, it's bomb-proof, and it's more 'fun' to ride. The Fuji is cheaper, lighter, and faster, but not as tough as the charge...
    It's a close call...
