1992 Gary Fisher
RS-1:
The RS-1 was one of the more successful early full
suspension bikes. Mert Lawwill designed the rear suspension and
the potential brake issues were solved by using a floating caliper
design. The extra wide bottom bracket and disc specific rear hub
were a couple of the unique parts that were needed to accommodate the
suspension design. Not sure what the series of birds in flight
decals represent but they are flying along the top tube (maybe it makes
you go faster?).
