  I would need a new headset as well. please help. have really no more time to google and read. just hate the stem that came with the bike. need something shorter and simpler. quill stem would be better...thanx. How do I go to something like nitto. what would I have to buy?

  it does have retailers in germany. you can get their contacts through the official fuji website for germany. price is 400 euros though and they only carry the 2009 version (hate the paintjob).
  anyone tried to fit this nitto stem http://www.tokyofixedgear.com/productdetails.asp?productid=00461 to a fuji track. use nitto b201aa risers right now.

  update: evans offered me 50pounds in accesories and had no problem accepting:) also used their price promise offer and got them to lower the price to match biddlebikes. price from biddles plus shipping charges from evans = unbeatable price for ordering from germany;) biddles asked for 80 quid to ship to berlin!

  @propeller. its a track bike, tubing seems alright. rims will wear off pretty fast though.

  ps. noone seems to answer questions in here?

  yeah. they basically offered either to pick it up or to give me some compensation. dont know depends how much they offer. i d keep it for 50 pounds off. what do you think? worth the rust?

      hi all. received my fuji track yesterday and love it already. there are 3 small (a couple of sq. millimetres) paint chips however that got me worried. is this normal for bikes in this price range or should I return it before taking out for a spin? they dont really bother me but wouldn t want to get cheated out of my money and/or risk rust already. another thing is that under the bottom bracket where the serial numbers are, someone, presumably an evanscycles employee chipped the grey paint (which at the point seems like it has been made to be chipped in a perfect rectangle) to reveal the serial number but did it badly and scratched the black coating as well. do I make any sense? thanx for your time.
  

  ps. posted this in another thread too. hope I m not overdoing it.
