Hi, Team model really came out in 1987 I understand hand brazed (either thinly or were really TIG) by Teesdale. That year there were 12 models and what I have not ever seen are the Indian Fire Trail and Coyote Ridge from that year. They may have not been exported that year. I attached a picture...

The Team and Team Titanium models first came out late 1987 and there was also a 1988 model. Attached is my 1987 Race Team's Team. The Team was either identical on frame minus some components. Interloc Seatpost, Salsa Moto bars and stem (replaced by me to a Turbo), Koski Duratrac fork

If someone is still needing information on this frame, I believe it's a 1989 Supergo Access Team Issue

Thanks, your bike was made between the 2nd and 3rd week of April in 1988. It's missing a letter in the front, all other bikes I've seen have a K which may indicate the factory, from 1984 to 1987 the bikes were made by Toyo in Japan. It is still possible your bike was made by Toyo but Toyo use...

Could you please share serial number information, as much as you can, I'm keeping record of model year changes. Also the purple fork is a Spinner not Tange (1989 dated) Cheers

It is customary to offer a beer next time the person that aids you is in your neighborhood... just kidding all the best!

I have what I believe is an early 1987 Fisher MountainBikes Montare. Can someone share a catalog scan or concrete information on its year. The frame was built by Toyo in May of 1986. I suspect the components are 1987 spec'd but I have never seen a 1987 Catalog to confirm this. Two components I...

Ok... so I went and bought one just to get your measurement ;). Mine is a 17" frame and it measures about 15.5" center of axle to base of crown race. I compared this to other Tange forks I have and these were as shown in attached pictures. I also measured my daughters 1987 Cannondale (15" frame)...

I think these are very standard, just need one for a 26" not a 24" or a 700"

Hi, as long as you know it is an '88 (I think '89 changed to evolution fork steerer tube of 1 1/4"), any 26" and 1" Tange Fork or similar, longer than your steerer and with a 1.5" to 2" rake will work. Just decide if you wan a more stable or shorter geometry. For '88 maybe also '87, Fisher used...

Re: Hi there, Several factors drive early MTB prices. 1. Rarity- As stated, Boutique (specially pre-1982) bike command top prices, try to find/buy one of the first 9 Breezers 2. Brand- some brands would have more followers than others 3. Hierarchy- top models with the best tubing, geometry...

Re: This might be another photo, but still not clear. Joe Murray 1987

Looking for a better picture of this 1987 Marin Team Comp

Re: Test the guide with this quiz bike, have fun.

Retrobikers, This is a guide to help you identify the frames of Marin MTB from 1986 to 1989. Thanks for the contributions and comments of hamster, gtturbo, Antstark, and doctor-bond. I/m missing the highlighted entries. I can’t comment on components or serials since I had no access to enough...

Transition year syndrome, do you kept its serial number to test this?

Re: Re: Most 89 came with both, U-brake I suspect, and makes sense, on early builds and Rear cantis on later builds

Beautiful bike!, I would call that an 1989 model year bike based on the lack of the forward facing chevron-shaped ST crown reinforcement lug.
