Candy Blue GT Pro.
« on: May 01, 2010, 02:31 PM »
1983 GT Pro Nora Cup.
Finished this build nearly two months ago but as me and Glen (the gay pensioner) were building more or less the same bike I thought I would leave it a while before it's debut (gentleman's agreement and all that  ;D)
I love this bike and this is one of three GT Pro's that I own. This one has taken a little while to build, the bars in particular were hard to locate. Frame and Forks are in mint condition. This is one of my favourite builds so far, hope you like it as much as I do.

Big thanks to Dan for the awesome Candy Blue powder, Del for the decals and to Steve for the pads  :daumenhoch:

Seen this in the flesh and it's my personal favourite of your builds Nath , the colour is stunning in the flesh , awesome job SBD  ;)

Both yours and Glen's are great builds imo  , love them both  :smitten:

I will do a GT pro one of these days , probably in this colour , then there will be 3  :D
