Gary Fisher mountain bikes were created a couple of decades ago. Gary is a mountain biking legend in fact he is seen as one of the people instrumental in creating the sport of mountain biking. He is a passionate rider and a fanatical advocate of cycling. Gary Fisher bikes are high quality mountain bikes which can carry you to the top of mountain biking.

Gary created his own mountain biking company several years ago, which he later sold to Trek. Trek now sells his bikes under the "Gary Fisher Collection" label.

When it comes to mountain bikes the best equipment is always related to what you want to do with it. In my opinion there is very little point to owning a top level Gary Fisher mountain bike if you are only using it for an occasional bike ride at your local park unless of course you just have to look really good.

On the other hand if you are an avid cyclist and wanting a great mountain bike to get you down and over rough trials and need something reliable you should seriously consider a Gary Fisher bike.

Trek's Gary Fisher Superfly is is just such a bike. It is the epitome of speed, period. There are actually five models of Superfly 100 at the present. There are two with aluminum frames and three with carbon fiber frames.

The Superfly 100 Elite is second from top as far as quality and price goes. It has great handling and good specs. It has a full carbon frame and really sets the standard as far as race bikes are concerned. Its frame is super light yet extremely stiff and utilizes Gary Fisher's proven geometry. Its custom suspension by Fox adds superior handling control and a lot of comfort. It has X0 components and brakes not only giving it its get up and go but its stopping power as well. With this bike you will get a view from the front of the pack which is a whole lot better. The Superfly has been proven to be superior in races and on the trail.

Mountain bikes sure have come a long way in the last number of years with these higher end lighter models which are a lot more specific in their off road task. But if you want a bike that will allow you to ride those forest trails and yet be also comfortable and efficient on roads for general or fitness rides then these new 29ers are what you should be looking at.

If you’ve never heard of Gary Fisher bikes before don’t kick yourself to hard. This is one of the reasons Trek has created the Gary Fisher Collection so this great line of bikes gets the exposure they deserve. One thing you should be assured of is they are top quality bikes. And that is why Trek had no problem making them a part of the lineup of bikes. They are well worth your time to investigate and your money to invest in. Don’t hesitate to make one of this legends bikes your next bike to ride.
