Distinguishing features
It was a black 1998 Gary Fisher Paragon with yellow writing and worn paint. It had a red Rockshox Sid Hyrda Air XCsuspension fork, Shimano XTR shifters and brakes, black Maxxis wheels with black treadless tires, fenders on both the front and back wheels, sliver clipless pedals, light fixtures on the handles bars and seat post and was decorated with multiple stickers. It should also still have a sticker saying it was purchased at Discover Bikes, Hood River. The bike was a hand-me-down from my older brother; it was his first race bike. Never got a chance to write down the serial number since it's been around for a while.
