yeah, i've got a Fisher Cobia 29er and it's one of the most comfortable and controllable mountain bikes i've ever ridden, on or off road. i swapped the short factory stem for an adjustable that's about the same length but adjusted a few degrees higher... was commuting on it for a while and found that was alleviated hand pressure better when spending an hour dodging LA traffic.
echoing comments made about short stems and light ends though, when riding on dirt it's a bit light but still tractive. though on streets, when starting up from traffic lights i have to watch my gearing or i pop a wheelie :) -andrew On Apr 6, 2010, at 6:54 PM, Richard wrote: > If Gary Fisher's bikes are an indicator of something (?), many years > ago Gary Fisher designed his mountain bikes with what I believe was > called "Genesis" geometery.
