Bikes: 2007 Gary Fisher Piranha & ~ 1984 Ross Mt Whitney

Hi,Just got a Trek too last night.
Sort of anyway, a Gary Fisher Piranah.
My Current bike is a 23 year old chro-moly framed chrome finish Ross Mt Whitney, same price as the bike I just bought!
They're ordering a stem with a 25 degree rise instead of the stock 10 & the fender for the front since I'll be commuting to work some. Appearently SKS has a different fender for use with Manitou forks.
Also towards that end I picked up a rack. Discovered that I was about 1/4 inch short on clearance for the disc brake I emailed the manufacturer late last night. They said they were working on racks to go with them, but of course would not be available for a while. I packed the rack back up and was going to take it back, but will try to make a pair of brackets to move it foward a bit. (Really like the rack).

Anyway, Happy Treking
Bob
