Fisher CR7

[24pouces]

this summer bike. Bought as a frameset since a long time, that bike is riden again !
The paint job is not in good shape but I prefered to keep it with all its scuffs and… history.
Very stiff and inconfortable… but funny to ride




pressed BB Bearings and very thick aluminum tube set

little bolt for sticking the rear Chromoly (Tange Prestige) triangle

1"1/4 headset


Dia Compe brake lever and very narrow handlebar

Re:

Wow, in a proper size as well! Can't be that many CR7s in that size.

Great build as always!

Re:

Great to see a another CR7 in a normal size.
I really should get my one built.

Re:

Proper size?!

Cool bike, even if too small for most humans.

Scuffs are very good.

What purpose do the two threaded holes in the bottom bracket shell serve?

That's so you can get to the bolts that hold the rear end on!

Re:

Awesome!

These are really great bikes. If you haven't tried one give it a go. Great value and definitly in the way underrated catagory.

That's what I would answer
The bike was designed by Richard Cunnigham with the same steel/aluminum bolt design as Mantis.
I was looking for that bike in small size since a long time. But the geometry is stange : very short (aroung 50cm top tube) and high (16" seat tube). I think that Gary Fisher with his quite 2m tall, never understood small sized bikers. My 16" RS1 is quite big for a small size.
:roll:

Perhaps a ride tomorrow

Wasn't Richard Cunningham in Happy Days? :?

I love a nice Fisher Thick aluminium isn't not for me though, well my back to be precise!
Do they make them in grown up size?

Only joking, glad you are enjoying it

I will build finally mine up one day, unfortunately the frame is 12,000 miles away. Pretty much my dream bike when I started out. Still never ridden one.

Re:

Mine was far for a long time too : bought in Canada quite 2 years ago, the saler posted it to a father's friend who lives in Quebec. That friend who lives in Somerville had to bring it the day he visited his father. After he putted the frameset in a big box he shipped to Mojo Ti. And Mojo Ti posted it to me :facepalm: :mrgreen:

First ride yesterday (didn't got time before). The bike is a dragster !
But top tube and handle bar are very short (both around 50cm) and the bike is strange to handle.
I need some adjust it…
