what year & model GT?

[showtime]

hi guys
went to look at a GT that a friend is selling earlier & don't rally recognise which model it is as there are some subtle differences 

had a quick squizz round the net & found this pic which looks most similar 



any pointers on age/model?

serial number is under BB & its wearing a bolt on bashguard at the mo!

Either a Pro Freestyle Tour or a later Performer. Get the serial # and i'll be able to tell you.
Most likely a Performer if the serial is under the BB.

twin bend down tube performer came out later dunno year had stopped by then

serial number is YC4H3617 & its written around the edge of the BB shell on the non drive side

You'll have to get a grown up to figure it out from the serial number as i have never understood them but from the picture I would say 1990 - 1993.
Does the one you are looking at have the cable holder in the same place? Higher spec Performer if it does or lower spec Performer or Vertigo if its on the top tube.

^^^ Yeah i'd have to agree. A '90s Performer/Vertigo.
P.F.T.s had the serial on the rear drop-out and were proceeded by the letter 'FS'. The serial #s also had a different format with the month/year in it.

pretty sure the cable guides on the toptube on the one i was offered, i was thinking performer or vertigo 92-93ish based on what i found having a browse


don't the Pro Freestyle tour bikes also have bent chainstays too as well 

i don't think its for me anyway, i'll post a link up to it when he puts it on ebay

Drop outs look like they are about to get out of hand, but it's still got the top bend in the down tube, so I'd say 94 or 95.
