The 1992 Gary Fisher Mt. Tam is a unicorn. It did not appear in the ‘92 catalog (nor did the Aquila) and was the only other model besides the top of the line RS-1 to feature the new RockShox II fork.

Unlike the 1991 model I found, this one was ridden hard for many years and left outside to rot in the elements. I decided to have the original fork rebuilt and tucked it away rather than subject it to 220lbs of abuse. The addition of a 2002 RockShox SID resulted in a very rideable, full XT, Japanese-made quad butted Fisher masterpiece, with a little extra (and much needed) stopping power up front in the form of an Avid BB7 disc brake.
