Got bored, built another bike, here it is.
« on: August 23, 2005, 11:13 PM »
OK, had a bit of time on my hands, fancied building a chrome machine and always loved the GT PFTs after seeing a sneeky preview of Craig Campbells one in M-Zone one Saturday afternoon many moons ago. Like most of the bikes I cobble together, many of the parts were just sat around waiting to be made into something, others were sourced from fellow Radders and evilbay etc. Already enjoying throwing this thing around without the worry of chipping any paintwork. The frame was quite a mess when I received it but I simply handed it to my 3 year old daughter with a tube of Peek and some steel wool and it came up a treat. Enthusiastic kids taking an interest in dad's hobby, priceless!!





Spec is as follows -

'90 frame/forks with '87 model stickers (coz they're my favourite)
NOS 4 piece Dyno 'pretzel' handlebars
Peregrine HP48 SuperPros rebuilt with NOS Peregrine hubs and stainless spokes
NOS Tioga comp pool tyres
NOS Radkaps
4x GT axlepegs
GT Power Series cranks
Tioga cd powerdisc
NOS Suntour chainring
NOS Suntour freewheel
NOS Dia Compe Nippon calipers
Dia Compe tech 7's
NOS Hutch donut clamp
Tioga beartrap 4 headset
NOS GT block stem
Jive handle grips
Elina layback
GT seat
GT forkstanders
Victor DX copies (need some nice shiny Shimano's, anyone hepl?)
SST Gyro
Nickel Izumi chain

Top build.

It just needs somebody doing a can-can on it about 8 foot out at Southsea.
