If not for Gary Fisher, you would not be here, looking for a "mountain bike." That's because Gary coined the term, when he and Charlie Kelly started a business in Northern California in the late 70s. Gary and his crew realized that if you modified the design of 1950s klunker bikes by adding gears and more durable parts, you could ride off-road and away from the "cops, cars, and concrete." Today, Gary is still innovating, still blending art and science into the ultimate off-road machines now called "Mountain Bikes."
Wow. The finest-handling trail bike on the market just became the lightest trail bike on the market. Introducing the HiFi Pro Carbon . At 23.3 lbs (medium size), we have yet to find a lighter trail bike with 120mm front and rear travel. And not only is it light, it has a 40% greater stiffness-to-weight ratio than our renowned aluminum HiFi platform.
How. The best-in-class handling comes from Fisher’s exclusive G2 Geometry, focused around a custom 46mm offset Fox F-Series fork. G2 Geometry combines the stability of a longer wheelbase with the sharp, precise handling of a custom-offset, shorter-trail fork. The amazingly light weight is thanks to a made-in-USA OCLV 110gsm Carbon main frame, with co-molded link mounts. Co-molding saves weight and increases strength over traditional bonded link mounts.
Are we surprised HiFi won the Mountain Bike Action Trailbike Shootout? No. Are we stoked? You bet. After all, it’s one thing to beat out the big boys in head-to-head competition on the trails. It’s another to have the whole thing documented by Mountain Bike Action.
Introducing the all new HiFi XC Series. A bike dialed for cross country riders. Lightweight, efficient suspension, improved handling, and a refined XC geometry, all designed to keep you moving ahead. Quickly.
