He is my latest ride, a GT cruiser. I have just cleaned it up changed a couple of bits that were knackered. It needs a few new parts that I will change as I go along (grips, seat, cranks etc). It rides like a dream. I am going to have to get myself down BAD BMX track and give it a spin.
I don't know what year it is, any help would be appreciated. Would it qualify for an old school race meet?

nice ride
are the bars tweaked or is that the camera angle?
-
I think that it is an early 90's model, not for old school races as it has cantilever/v brake mounts not caliper but a very, very sexy ride!
You could still race it though in regular cruiser class :daumenhoch:

Dem bars be bent :daumenhoch:
-
Race it in "RUN WHAT YER BRUNG" at the RADBMX MK Summer Meet :daumenhoch:

Im pretty sure that is a early to mid 90's GT Pro Series 24 - Ive just got hold of the exact same frame/fork but in 20" from the states - there's an ebay seller selling them and also interceptors and powerlite stuff for about £80 a frame/fork! Will post info soon!

The bars do have a bend on one side, someone must have had a pretty heavy landing on it to do that. It doesn't really notice when I ride it, and I will replace them soon. I saw the 20" version on the bay, and I am very tempted.
I will definitely bring it to MK and have a hack round the track. I haven't been on a track for about 16 years so it should be fun. i might even bring me burner to give you boys a bit of a laugh!!!!!!

Proper chrome on that frame!
