Re: 2006 Specialized Fuse 4
Noticed the Fuse IV and thought I would have a captain cook at it. I started to get back into BMX on a 2004 Fuse iV and did me proud. Bit quick steering but a solid bike. The S-Works is heavily based on this model and apart from some reworking in the chainstays that is basically the same that the pro's ride. FWIW, my Fuse is on this museum if you'd like to compare differences to which there is either little or none in the overall design of the frame. Love the Big Cities! Have fun - Scott.

G'day Scott. I'd actually seen your Fuse IV previously and it's one of the reasons I went for the chromies on mine! I agree, the Fuse IV's are great bike. Not that popular with the younger riders but who cares. I like your latest bike too. (You can never have too much chrome!) Cheers, David

Im 16 and i have a 2004 Fuse 4, all the other kids hate it so much but i LOVE it. They say its to heavy and ugly, but i can still 180, and 360 just like on any other bike.

Hi mate. Yeah, I saw yours on OZ. Nice score! Mine's currently on the market. Totally changed since these pics, now fitted with Odyssey wheels & Profile cranks. Don't want to sell but too many other projects...!
