Details
Gary Fisher's Paragon combines Fisher's cutting-edge design with an awesome parts package. The lightweight Platinum Series aluminum frame features Fisher’s G2 Geometry, giving you the best riding position for fast climbs, rock-steady descents and accurate steering. And, with its 29-inch wheels the Paragon rides more smoothly and efficiently over obstacles than bikes with traditional-size wheels. The competition-ready parts package includes a super-smooth Fox F80 RL 29er fork, a sweet-shifting SRAM X-9 drivetrain, stellar Bontrager Rhythm wheels with grippy Bontrager tires, and Avid's powerful Juicy 5 discs.

| Fisher's G2 Geometry (version 2 of Fisher's Genesis Geometry) delivers the ultimate ride for every trail. Genesis earned rave reviews for awesome handling on climbs and descents thanks to a long top tube paired with a short stem that moves the front wheel forward for top-notch confidence and control, while short chainstays add phenomenal traction. Fisher's G2 Geometry takes these handling traits to the next level by boosting control on tight singletrack and technical climbs, too. This is accomplished by increasing the amount of fork offset (reducing trail), which makes G2 bikes steer more quickly, and by shortening the reach, which puts more weight on the front wheel for even better control and confidence. The two animations above showcase how Fisher's G2 Geometry provides the perfect ride. |
Because they are less likely to drop into ruts and holes, 29-inch wheels roll smoother and faster, and stay afloat better on mud and sand than 26-inch wheels.
