Where's the dang engine???
For us old folk, with bad knees, we need engine!! Yours truly IS the engine....which means it ain't going far....or fast

Its a good bike Gary Fisher has a lot in common with the treks. The drivetrain is pretty decent and you can upgrade as you break it. I would take off the reflectors or you will be looked at funny. The tires are good. The Suntour front fork may be alittle squishy but may work great for you. For $180 thats a good price. The fact that I can lock it out on the road though was a biggie. Not exactly a common feature on sub-$200 bikes.

Owned a GF. It was my first MTB. Great bike from one of the pioneers in the sport. Gomer and RH. There is a movie on netflix or amazon called Klunkers. It is about how MTBing all got started. Pretty cool.

They had one for sale as I walked in Bass pro today. Only 4,000 something. I had to look twice to make sure the price was right You sure that wasn't one of those Quiet Cat electric bikes? I dont think BP really gets into high end bikes but those in particular are marketed to hunters.
