New: Take Part in the May Giveaway for a Change to Win the Thruster 27.5 Retrograde BMX Cruiser Bike


1995 Gary Fisher Grateful Dead Edition HooKoo E Koo
#1
Time to get this puppy rolling. Been in storage for years. Never thought it came out with a higher end groupo that a $1000 bicycle in 1995 deserved. With that said, I am taking it up a couple notches on the Shimano food chain, with all Nos crankset, 8spd shifter/lever combo and canti's, all DeoreLx, The nos wheelset will be of era Bontrager. Probably will do a custom anodized bolt kit to add some extra needed color and shave off a gram or two along the way. The original gummies have long been dry rotted so a more casual street stlye fatty will be replacing them. Some nice Platform pedals to round it out to a nice retro mod.
