Post by: hotdog on June 23, 2011, 04:45 PM: Nope.... I wouldn't ride it for exactly the same reasons that I wouldn't ride a Big Ripper. It'll be interesting to see whether all this 'retro bmx cruiser' trend catches on,though.

Post by: ron burgundy on June 26, 2011, 06:34 PM: That's class, it's miles better than any of that 80's tat they used to cobble together. Well done to the design team, top work.

Post by: WizardWeb on June 26, 2011, 11:45 PM: If the detailing was right, then it'd be cool. But the mid-90's rear drop-outs and the way the bend in the downtube isn't parallel with the top tube shows it's a bad and rushed design. The Knight Performer was spot on, so it's a shame GT only seem to have given their taiwanese suppliers a grainy picture to work from...
