As some of our customers are already aware, Freewheel Cycle was victim to a break & enter in mid-July.  Stolen during the incident were almost $20k worth of bikes – a new Santa Cruz Tallboy, Gary Fisher Superfly, a used Scott Ransom LTD belonging to a staffer, and an Opus Orpheo demo/rental.  Over the past month we’ve been working with local law enforcement officers, as well as many helpful individuals in the cycling community who spread the word about the missing bicycles, and ultimately supplied us with the tips that helped us make progress on the case. more…

If you weren’t aware, Gary Fisher (bikes) and Trek have come out of the closet.  For 17 years Fisher has been partnered with Trek.  Some cynical “in-the-know” folks had claimed over the years that Fishers were just rebranded Trek bicycles.  This wasn’t the case then, and now that there are some big Trek decals on the bikes, this is of course still not the case.  The new Gary Fisher Collection, Fisher dreamed, Trek unleashed, campaign gets to the heart of the matter.   Though Fisher bicycles now very prominently say Trek on them, they remain innovative, and aggressive; and retain their unique technology and geometry.

The Freewheel Crew with Gary Fisher.

So why?  This move makes sense for Fisher, since Trek will be able to deliver these excellent bikes to a broader audience via Trek’s much larger dealer network.  A surprisingly large number of Trek dealers were not Fisher dealers, and vice versa.  Yet, all Trek dealers were clamoring for 29ers, and it made no sense for Trek to develop a new 29er platform; especially when the sister brand – Gary Fisher – was already the industry leader in 29er development.
