1988 Gary Fisher Hoo Koo E Koo. I've wanted one of these for about 25 years after I saw my mates.
I bought this off of
@Sundayjumper for a bargain price.
Nothing is seized, and it all works, I've ridden it locally three times now. It is a very sweet bike to ride, even my 20 yo son liked it.
I think I will be conserving this rather than a restoration, I want to use as much as I can. It's original apart from saddle and pedals.
The 1988 GF catalogue says it should have Deore hubs. Mombat say it should have Joytech hubs which it does, sealed bearing. This surprised me, usually Joytech are low end. The bearings are still smooth.
For me it needs toe clips, I couldn't ride any distance without. The saddle hurts my backside. So probably get a Pro or B17.

edit, it will only do green laning with me, nothing desperate.
