GT Performer F+F????
« on: June 25, 2010, 08:42 PM »
Is this genuine?, dont look it to me, no drilled holes in rear dropout and the upper chainstay tube looks like it joins the dropout too far back.

Yes I would say 87/88 Performer, but I'm sure these had 990 mounts under the chainstays, maybe they have been removed  ???

It looks like a standard '88 performer but the correct forks also came with undrilled dropouts (with a stamped GT logo) to match the rear so it's an '88 frame with '87 (or earlier) forks IMO.  I had one a while back and it was pretty sweet - mine came with black 6 spoke OGK/GT mags fitted.  8)

Pretty much what Pickle said ,really.  :)

There is a pic of the complete bike in the '88 GT catalogue which can be viewed here.  On page 6, I think.

More GT, Haro and other catalogues can be viewed (or downloaded) there too.
