1984 Fisher Everest

[mrkawasaki]

Fascinating - is there any Fisher branding on the bike at all? Any references to tubing either? I wonder why a show bike of all things would have no branding on it??

Fisher MountainBikes catalogue from 1984 here: http://www.retrobike.co.uk/gallery2/d/9 ... fISHER.pdf

- in the range shown the Everest 84 would appear to sit one below the Competition (addendum - in weight terms).

There is no Fisher branding on the bike. I would not say that the Everest is below the Competition. The two bikes were designed for different riders. We did a lot of mtb touring back then and someone who wanted a bike for touring would want the Everest while someone who wanted a bike for racing would want the Comp. I think that I saw a 84 Fisher price list online somewhere, but I can't find it now. I thnk that the Everest may have been more expensive than the Comp.

Who made these?

Tom Teasdale, or so the description says.

Eric's Ritchey from Keyesville last year has the the same paint job:

^ Might that mean it was prepared for the same show?

The interweb shows this 'unclassified' 1984 Fisher Everest as though it may be Ritchey-made:

Serial is 0 0 8 0. What is the numbering on this Everest?
