When did Trek bike buy Fisher bike company?

Gary Fisher and roommate Charlie Kelly started "MountainBikes", the first company to manufacture Mountain Bikes, in 1979. FYI: The frames were built by Tom Ritchey himself (who founded Ritchey Designs in 1983). In 1983, Fisher took over the company and changed the name to "Gary Fisher Mountain Bikes". In 1991, Fisher sold the brand to Anlen (a major manufacturer in Taiwan), but stayed on as President of the company. In 1993, after what Fisher calls "two excruciating years", Trek acquired Fisher from Anlen.
