Gary Fisher Sugar Team Issue

This is a classic -- certainly considered one of the best pure XC bikes of all time (up there with the Epic, Truth, and Blur during the early 2000's).  This is a Team Issue -- actual Team Subaru -- Gary Fisher Sugar.  It's nearly (so close) all original, with the exception of the handlebar and rear wheel.  The condition is about what you'd expect from a 20-year-old cross-country mountain bike -- but no dents, no cracks, and mechanically it's still doing it's thing: both the front Float and rear Float are still both locking-out (in case you forgot, back in the day, rear lock-out was actually 100% LOCKED out, and this still does it).  Is this museum quality?  No, absolutely not.  But is this a rare gem and still functioning?  Yes, it is.
