GT pro with a twist of lemon.

Very nice Sam. The white/gold/yellow/blue combo looks really good. I especially like the close up shot of the headset/stem area

[McQUEEN]

I think the two colour gold / blue anodizing looks fantastic with the white - great choice and build

[rodriguez]

Cracking build, colour way works really   


I don't think an 890 will work   

Couple of options, easiest being porkchop for a repop

If you can get anno done and want to do something really different a Dia Compe or 750 Centre pull would be the ticket.

that would suit!    are they new, or old stock?

Sam, you want a DC or Wienman 730 on the rear, i've just put one on my JMC running 1 3/8s and it reaches perfectly - geometry/reach should be pretty similar to the GT

thanks chris....

Back for a second look.

Tidy Pro that Sam, top job.

Looks cool with the skinnies 

I had them on my motomag, makes a nice change from the norm

Is the rear wheel rammed between your arse cheeks or do you just save that treat for visitors to the loft? 

[steve69]

That looks refreshingly cool with the white frame set, Colour is King 

Nothing wrong with a Pro size bike running 20x1-3/8" wheelset, makes it look faster.
(bitd i ran 1-3/8" on my Changa Long for a while, and there was a noticeable difference in speed)

[hunterdubber]

GT so underrated these days ,
 yet back in their day they were rode by the best riders   


Winning colour combo Sammy ,, proper,proper nice

Um good question I reckon they are new as they just haven't stopped making them, maybe changed where they are made though, if you are after old ones you could restore a set of old weinmanns or maybe even pick a NOS set up, they'd have most likely used weinmanns BITD.

[steve69]

There's a possibility I have a small gold caliper in the spares box 

I'll let you know tomorrow Sam.

[meticulous]

thanks for the offer steve. 

this landed the other day,  fits perfect so all sorted now....
