Guys,

My brother very kindly sold my 87 ish Robinson Pro F+F while i was in Australia  :idiot2:  Still that was back in 1992 so i guess i should get over it!  Anyway last weekend  i got myself on e bay and got a bike to play with (looked like a GT mini, skinny tyres uni mini turbo and low rise new style bars)

now i have the bike it seems the frame is pretty good and should clean up pretty well.  Only downside being the seat tube has been damaged through someone cramming a metal shim in there for the uni seat, with a deep seat clamp you wont see it though.  It's not a mini though, American BB.  Stamped under bottom bracket G284818, reading previous threads i'm thinking an 84 Junior? but seems reasonably long at 18-181/2 top tube wheelbase is 36" Forks are non GT, aero shape, maybe Tange.  The new school bars dont fit in the rounded DK stem correctly, the 11/8 comp3's are on 1.5 -1.75 rims!nice Suntour sealed hubs though. 140mm opc ( i didnt know they made them  that small) with powerdisc and sugino chain ring. Mongoose DX type pedals

If its a Junior not a pro i may as well break it for bits, i dont imagine theirs much call for a Junior sized old school?

Cheers

I was winning this with about 5 seconds to go.  :LolLolLolLol:

It went for a good price in my opinion.

As to technology embracing me, we'll reserve judgement.

Any GT fans out there have pro frame measurements to hand?

As for ebay, Have a look at AuctionSniper, i used my final free 'Snipe' to win it!

Help, anyone?

Does anyone know the dimensions of a GT Pro or Expert/Junior?
