I've experienced a sudden attack of fork envy. ;)

Sweet bike.

In addition, it's just cool to see a major manufacterer use steel in an higher tier frame -- and build it in the U.S. I'm sure there are probably others, though off the top of my head I can't think of any others outside this one.

Looking at your photo, due to the angle, the seat stay looks curvy. But now I am looking at the Gary Fisher website and it does have a slight bow to it. Very sexy!
Nice bike! :cool:

Thanks! The seatstays bend downward at the last 4+/- inches before the dropout. I haven't had a chance to get a good ride on it yet, just up and down the street. The Holidays are really more work than regular work, running to different houses, ect. Maybe I will try and get a night ride in on it this evening. Review to follow ride. I was wondering if anyone knew who welded these frames? Were they sourced out to a contractor to be built or built at the Gary fisher factory?

My favorite part of the frame is the badge on the back of the seat tube.

Nice ride! I've been lucky enough to see a few in person at my usual stomping grounds. Love the paint and the whole look of the frame. Enjoy it for us!:D

Wow ! One year too late. So it goes. I'm very happy with the Monocog but would havee liked to buy from he shop down the street.

EBB or Hub ?
