The GT Owners Thread

gt-arrowhead

Im a big fan of GTs, and there are other "owners threads" so i thought why not start a GT one?

Post up your GTs! Heres my Arrowhead:

bikaholic

Technically not the owner, but I did build it from the frame up.

gt-arrowhead

That looks nice, thanks for sharing.

I like your choice of saddle, goes perfectly with the sidewalls of the tyres. Im kinda stuck with Retro and frankly not so good GTs. Heres another, which is kind of the opposite to yours. My dad built this but now he said i could have it since he got a Marin which he much prefers.



Ive also got a Chucker build...been trying to get it together for a while now, making progress on collecting parts bit by bit.

I'd best take some new pictures of my Avalanche, then. Since the ones in my sig were taken it's covered more than 2,000 miles. In that time I've had to replaced the cassette, chain and chainrings (now double-and-bash); I have new wheels; and best of all I am enjoying some rather fine Rebas which make a huge difference to the ride (a big thank you to BrindleScoops for them).

supersonic

I don't have any... ;-). Lol, coming soon!

gt-arrowhead

Sounds good, 2000 miles! Would like to see it

If i werent building the chucker, i would have got some Judys for my Arrowhead. I saw a pair for £30 on eBay locally. But i dont even have a fork for the chucker, so the Arrowhead is staying rigid.

Haha, cheers supersonic.

Thanks, was 20 miles in from a nice 90 mile ride. 3 off road sections aswell

matt@theforce

The best GT I've ever owned






Not bad for 22 years old & still used for 40+ mile off road routes 8) , only changes are Tyres/chain/brake blocks, otherwise all original

gt-arrowhead

Nice GTs guys. Your right supersonic, zaskars are sexy. Especially yours, love the colours. The next bike i buy will most likely be a Zaskar. I want a retro one.

Its nice to see someone else rocking an old GT. Yours is mint!! And that paint is pretty awesome. Nice one!

Some really nice bikes on this thread so far guys.. keep them coming, would love to see more!

gt-arrowhead

5 GTs, wow, very nice! Are you related to Supersonic? They look great, especially your Fury.

Since you posted up your BMX, ill post up mine. This is an old school one that i rebuilt last christmas. I just wanted a BMX so badly at the time. Done it on the cheap too. Im gonna sell it this weekend, just needs a new rear wire and ill throw some crappy v brakes on it. If you look at my Arrowhead, youll notice i kinda nicked the brakes from it

Thanks 'Arrowhead! Nope, no relation to supersonic (that I'm aware of)!! Kinda fond of my Fury too.. awesome bike!

And I'm liking the look of this.. maybe my next addition to the fleet, if there's a UK release?!!

Oh yeah, that bikes like winning almost everything apparently with the factory GT team. I dont follow competitions, but i see it from a page ive liked on facebook. It looks amazing. Its not even carbon, its aluminium, and it still wins! Dont know if its getting released in the UK or not, but id imagine it probably is.

Here is my only GT. It's a 2010 Power Series 24

That Sensor looks nice, i love those rotors!

AJ, remember how i said your Orange and your Nukeproof looked amazing? Your GT just blew them away! That looks so good! :shock: Isnt that a rare frame aswell?
