We've been looking to buy a used tandem bike to ride on trails and back roads. We found this one out in Minnesota! First 8 photos are the sellers. The rest are mine, documenting arrival via UPS and reassembly. After looking thru the lists of componets on the MTB Timeline, I'm pretty sure the bike is a 1988. The Biopace chainrings were only offered in 85-88, so that narrows the search. Shimano Deore XT stuff was wide-spread, but the rear U brake with new "Shark Tooth anti-jam device" was also only offered in 88-89. But The rims - with the stickers "Super Hard Anodized" and "RM-20" were a help. The Araya RM-20 rims were offered 85-88, but the "Super Hard Anodized" were just for 1988. Plus the color scheme - red/yellow/black fade - was only listed for 87 & 88. So even tho the Fisher Specs web page doesn't list any tandems, I'm thinking that the Biopace cranks, fade paint job and the Araya RM-20 rims make it most likely a 1988 model. Sure is a beauty, especially for a 20 year old bike!.
