Anyone had any expereince of them? Bit concerned by the "I have never seen a Gary fisher frame in this colour or style"
Any info gratefully recieved 🙂
In the last 24 hours I have learned that Gary Fisher is a nice bloke but his frames snap and he doesn't return emails. HTH
don't ask Phil fergawdsake.. he'll not understand
getting on a bit but bikeradar liked it;

it's got the stickers on so not had a respray - they did start using that Orange on GF frames for a while - my Ferrous was the same colour.

Just came across that post.
Looks a similar design as my rig that snapped yesterday. Make sure you check the seat/top tube weld thoroughly!
Vintage was 2005/2006. That frame has been resprayed though, but looks like a professional job. Make sure it was not powder coated, as the heat needed may have weakened the carbon bonding areas where the stays plug into the alloy
GF is indeed a nice chap......;)
I stand corrected!
putting the frame number sticker back on was thorough!
I have a 2002 Gary Fisher Big Sur, owned it from new and it is still going strong, no problems with the frame at all . . .
Obviously a few components have been replaced, and the fork serviced, but it has been and still is a great xc hardtail. I use it as a winter bike now, fitted with mud tyres.
