Gary Fisher Bicycles by Serial Number: How to Find and Identify Your Bike Model and Year

If you contact Trek Bicycles, they may be able to give you info on the age of your bike based on the serial number, since they acquired the brand. If you want an estimate of the age from the cycling community, it would help to post pictures of the bicycle -- the entire bicycle and a close-up of the drivetrain (chain, sprockets, derailleurs), both from the right side of the bicycle.

That\u2019s why Fisher himself is upbeat about the development: it will put bikes influenced by his ideas into far more dealers.\n\u201cThis makes sense. I love this strategy,\u201d says Gary Fisher in a press release sent early this morning. \u201cI\u2019ve been working with Trek on the Fisher Brand since 1996, but this puts me right in the middle of the best team of bike people. I can now bring my ideas to Trek, number one bike brand in the world. Better bikes and more people on those bikes. I love it.\u201d\nLest anyone think that the brand will be killed entirely like those other bike brands, though, Trek looks to have invested a considerable amount of resources into further refining the line for 2011 with 29ers still occupying a prime spot on the Gary Fisher Collection stage.\u00a0 \nNew for 2011 is a fully revamped Superfly carbon hardtail frame with an integrated BB95 bottom bracket, tapered front end, direct mount front derailleur, and an expansion of the \u2018Fisher Control Column\u2019 oversized front hub and end-cap, all of which are expected to yield a stiffer and sharper handling bike than the original.\u00a0 The full-suspension Superfly 100 looks to be mostly unchanged with the main addition being a Carbon Armor plate beneath the down tube to protect the frame.\n\n Trek superfly elite: Trek Bicycles\nThe new Trek Superfly Elite, from the new Gary Fisher collection\nLast year\u2019s Rumblefish will continue to be the collection\u2019s 29\u2033 trail bike with 120mm of travel up front matched to 110mm out back controlled with the Trek-exclusive DRCV-equipped Fox Racing Shox air shock for a more linear-feeling travel than the Superfly 100.\u00a0 Added stiffness will come with thru-axles front and rear, including a new ABP Convert system using the 142x12mm standard.\nAn exciting new hardtail addition is the Sawyer, built around a retro-inspired steel frame with gracefully curved lines and twin top tubes.\u00a0 Versatility looks to be a main feature here with dropouts readily equipped for either geared or singlespeed use \u2013 and a split to accommodate a belt drive, too.\nChanges to the road range are mostly cosmetic \u2013 which is fine with us as they were quite good already last year \u2013 but new for 2011 is the carbon fiber Cronus CX.\u00a0 An offshoot of the road-going Cronus frame, the CX will use similarly bulbous frame tube proportions, Gary Fisher\u2019s FCC oversized front end concept, integrated full-coverage fender mounts, internal cable routing, and a crown-mounted front brake housing stop to eliminate fork shudder.\u00a0 \n\n The new trek gary fisher cronus cx carbon fibre cyclocross bike: Trek Bicycles\nTrek\u2019s new Gary Fisher Cronus CX is the brand\u2019s first carbon fibre cyclocross bike\nThe Gary Fisher Collection will also expand on Gary Fisher\u2019s utilitarian aims with the Transport cargo bike.\u00a0 Using a long wheelbase chassis, the Transport will include as standard equipment an enormous front rack and a versatile folding rear rack to accommodate a wide range of cargo, and there will also be an electric-assist version to give a helping hand when the bike is fully loaded.\n","image":"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/21\/2019\/03\/1276700445465-pip07euyv4u5-bea9beb.jpg?quality=90&resize=768,574","width":768,"height":574,"headline":"Trek Bicycle Corporation kills off Gary Fisher bicycles","author":["@type":"Person","name":"James Huang"],"publisher":"@type":"Organization","name":"BikeRadar","url":"https:\/\/www.bikeradar.com","logo":"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/21\/2019\/03\/cropped-White-Orange-da60b0b-04d8ff9.png?quality=90&resize=265,53","width":182,"height":60,"speakable":"@type":"SpeakableSpecification","xpath":["\/html\/head\/title","\/html\/head\/meta[@name='description']\/@content"],"url":"https:\/\/www.bikeradar.com\/news\/trek-bicycle-corporation-kills-off-gary-fisher-bicycles\/","datePublished":"2010-06-16T16:00:00+00:00","dateModified":"2019-03-28T12:14:19+00:00"}] Trek Bicycle Corporation kills off Gary Fisher bicycles Debuts new 'Gary Fisher Collection' under Trek brand name 2ff7e9595c
