Would a Fuji Classic Junior track bike (43cm) for a woman 5ft tall be too small? Any advice would be greatly appreciated
thanks

my classic in yellow (silver was sold out)
the front forks are fooking shocking the welds are terrible.
can anyone recommend a different fork setup ,preferably with a really tight clearance. -

Yellow and blue ones look a little bit cheap, does enybody have real life pictures of the 2011 silver one ?

I have one and I'm 5'2" and it's not too small. Really like the 650c wheels for a fixed gear as there's absolutely no chance of toe overlap. Also seems to accelerate better and go up hills more smoothly due to the smaller wheels.
Only tires/tubes are a bit of a pain to come by but Continental and Michelin do some good ones.

Know this is a bit old, but I have to add that I have a fuji classic track with both brakes. They're tight but they're fine.

actually my fuji classic track came with both brakes. Ok i had to mount them (promax brakes), but I had no problems at all doing it. And they're normal (cheap) brakes. I was used to hydraulic brakes (I always rode mountainbikes...).....then I can't really understand if this is the feeling of classic cable brakes, or if it's the brakes on my bike that are such shit. It's like squeezing pudding.

can anyone recommend a front brake for fuji 2010 frame.

@roger...it's the feeling of cable brakes combined with drop lever's. I can see why you're finding them annoying if you're used to hydraulic, but they're very good.

Do you need 1" or 1 1/8"?
^ this'll depend on the year of the bike.
