Hey Rob, Brain is right, it isn't a highly sought after bike, but on that note you can find them at great prices. Last year Lou Deeter turned me on to an auction for a Fuso Lux at the last minutes of the auction. Got the whole bike shipped for $400. It had a replacement carbon fork and Campagnolo Ergo 8 speed both of which aren't period correct. After quickly building the bike up and taking it for a spin it became a keeper. I put modern stuff on it for the mountains that I ride around here and it has become one of my favorite two riders. In fact I just sent Lou an e-mail the other day thanking him again for sending the link to the auction after doing a ride up the backside of the mountain here. The bike was packed in the box poorly and suffered a dent in the top tube and there were many scratches on the paint. I thought about having it painted, but then thougth why bother, it is going to be a rider that I'll keep for a long time. What you have is a frame built by a builder with a history of building for some of the top riders in the sport. A Dave Moulton bike has a predigree. So he didn't spend 100 hours filing the lugs, that doesn't enhance the ride, build it and I think you will find you have one of the finest riding bikes in your stable if it is straight. Here is a link to my photo page in which you can check my Fuso Lux out in the Fuso folder of course.
Mark Poore, just came in off of a ride on my other favorite rider, a Rauler in Slatyfork, WV
