81/82 GT Pro
« on: September 08, 2012, 02:33 PM »
Markyp's lovely GT Pro made me go up to the loft and drag this down. I acquired the f/f in a trade with Denzil for my air zone (cheers mate  :daumenhoch: ). A lot of the parts were just changed over - it's built to be my new roll about towner. Quite chuffed with how it came out  :)

Cheers to denzil for the f/f, bars and post, Meticulous for the grips, Stu for the crud plugs, Pete Quad for the peggles, the captain for the stem and anyone else I can't remember who I've had parts off  :4_17_5:

Quick rundown:

GT Pro 81/82 frame (funny serial) with undrilled forks, survivor chrome
GT Pro bars, unknurled, unstamped
GT Seat post
NOS Blue Kashi aero
DC Seat clamp
DC MX1000 caliper w/ DC Tech 3 lever
DK square edged stem
Tange 320 headset w/ Tange loose proof locknut
Oakley 2 grips w/ Oakley crud plugs
Ukai speedlines on Suntour sealed hubs
NOS Cheng Shin comp 3's, fat/ thin
Sugino OPC, Sugino Spider, Sugino bolts, Sugino chainring
MKS BM7 pedals
