I said I'm almost afraid to ask because I've done a search and it does'nt seem like many of you talk about the Gary Fisher Sugar series. Anyways, I've been holding off on buy a 3+ because I wanted to see what they would do for 2003 (because of all the chain suck issues). So I rode one yesterday and I must say it felt good. The two biggest changes are the rear shock is now Fox Float R and the the fork is a new for 03 version of the RS Duke with U-turn travel adjust from 70mm to 108mm. The fork realy felt good, especially compared to the Blacks of the 02's.
Have any of you heard anything about the 03's? Please help me out. I have a friend that works at a shop and can get me 10-15% off the $1399 price of the 03 3+ or I can get an 02 4+ for $899 but I'll want to upgrade it. I'm so confused. Just so you all know I have tried a few others and just like the feel of the Sugar +. I would'nt mind a Kona Bear, but can't fork out the extra $400 and not sure I can justify it either.
Sorry for being wordy, just trying to make a decision by this friday!!
