G2 Geometry



Get Adobe Flash player

G2 Geometry started out as a project to improve the slow-speed handling of Fisher bikes. Fisher's existing Genesis Geometry already excelled in climbing, descending and handling at speed. The one area we wanted to improve its handling was in tight singletrack and technical climbs.

G2 accomplished this by increasing the amount of fork offset. This reduced the amount of trail to make it steer quicker without changing the rest of its handling characteristics. While increasing the offset, we reduced the reach to the handlebar to allow the rider to weight the front wheel more accurately.

Wheelbase remains the same for high speed stability; Amount of Trail is reduced for more neutral handling at slow speed; Cockpit was shortened to allow the rider to weight the front wheel more effectively.
