  1. Hello,

    I just bought my first decent mountain bike. I have purchased a used Gay
    Fisher X-Caliber, with fire rapid shifter, seems to be all decked out, and
    in great shape. It is about 5 or 6 years old, paid $200.00. Did I get a good
    deal, or did I get the shaft? Any feedback either positive or negative would
    be highly appreciated. Thanks in Advance.

    Scott,

    Sounds to me like you got the shaft! But what else would you expect with a
    *Gay* Fisher. What exactly is that anyway, a bike with an "ergonomic"
    seatpost?

    Well, if it's *gay* you probably did get the shaft.

    We know. Just ride it. If the frame is not cracked and it works for
    you, then enjoy it.

    Not that there's anything wrong with that.

    If you ride it and have fun, you got a screamin' deal. ($200 for a nice
    hardtail is a bargain, assuming it fits of course.)

    Ride the bike. Get it dirty. Spend money on it. Repeat as needed.
