Gary Fisher Pirahna - anyone know 'owt???

[Pickle]

Brought this in a moment of 'the wife is out, must buy stuff before she can say no'

Urm, its nice, its steel (fancied trying the stuff out), it was found under my 'Retro' search on ebay so its oldish.......

I guess I'm asking:
a) is it any good
b) can anyone date it

Yea, I looked at that and didnt think it was that one???? Fairly low spec if it is indeed that, as the more modern Pirahnas are middle/upper spec levels.

Hmmmm :?

Anyone else know anything???

From the decals I'd say about 1998, unfortunately the fact that it has double mounts on drop out and rack mounts on the seat stays doesn't say middle to top end to me nor does the fact that it's steel and it doesn't have Genesis layout. Think you've got yourself a cheap commuter rather than a race rig

Ah well, it'll do as a 'whoops' rash ebay purchase

Not amazing, not shockingly bad.......I'll build it as I when I can be bothered
