$40.00 | | Purchased At: | Craigslist.org | | Strengths: | Strong, light weight, great price for just the frame. | | Weaknesses: | no front stock shoxs | | Bike Setup: | I bought the frame and rebuit from scratch, couple used parts, couple new. | | Bottom Line: | I bought the frame for 40 bucks. I bought a used front rock shox forks. I bought new handle bars and stem cheap at a local bike shop. Stock the bike is threaded. i updated and changed to thread less. The bike total was 130 bucks which includes the parts. Great bike, i have always wanted a gary fisher and never knew it could be this easy and cheap to make my own with brand new parts. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

Y2K Fisher pargon (my bike) | | Bike Setup: |
Y2K Fisher paragon(my bike) | | Bottom Line: | This is my friends retro bike. It rode well on the smooth stuff, but when the trail got extreme it bailed out. Also, love the ride quality of steel. Thinking of buying it and putting new parts and forks on it. Mabye bombers w/ 4 inches of travel, lx/xt parts, the fenders. Sweet beater bike. | Overall Rating: |
