    I was just looking for some info on the Fuji Suncrest (mountain bike)
    to see if anyone had any personal experience with this model or if
    there is a "better equipped" m.b. for the money ($480. w/o tax).
    This would be my first m.b. and wanted somethig decent to ride without
    getting carried away but also not having to upgrade next year if I
    start getting "into" biking.
    
    Any comments/suggestions would be appreciated.
    
    					Thanks,
    					FJS, Jr.

|     I don't know what kinda equip' come with that bike but for about
    $500.00 you could get yourself a nice TREK MTN BIKE. I've had mine
    for about 1 year and I still can't kill it ( and its not for a lack
    of trying !! ). I have the shimano sti system (push button) and
    its OK but I think the SUNTOUR gruppo is much better but if I had
    it my my I'd have the good old thumb shifters turned under the 
    handle bar ... but thats just me

| 1493.2 | I love my FUJI SUNCREST | WOODRO::BERGERON | Sat May 05 1990 14:17 | 8 | |
|     I bought my Fuji Suncrest in Jun of 89. I am quite pleased with the
    bike. I use it mainly for street driving with an ocassional off road
    runs.  I have approxiamately 2K mile on it and no problems at all.
    I beleive the 90 model come with a Shimano speed shift system. Mine is 
    equiped with a shimano mountain LX system.  
    
    Good luck Bob
