Title: GT Pro, what year?
Post by: bmxbadger on July 16, 2007, 12:17 PM: Hi

Hopefully someone can help a newbie figure out what year this GT Pro is from by the serial number. The number is 7850090, I was told it was an 85 GT Pro (can't remember whether he said it was a Santa Ana version). Any help appreciated.

Cheers

What does the top tube look like blunt or slant behind the seat tube ?

does the back triangle have any holes and does the forks have a hole for a brake ?

Post by: bmxbadger on July 16, 2007, 03:11 PM: Hi Gashead, slanted end of the top tube which I know means it isn't very early 80s, will try and post some pics this evening, thanks for all the info.

Post by: boofy44 on July 16, 2007, 08:20 PM: the 85 GT pro,s had cutouts in the fork dropouts.cant see any pictures on this feckin work computer.
Title: Re: GT Pro, what year?
Post by: jT Racing on July 16, 2007, 11:00 PM: 85 gt pro, the 4 on the dropout indicates that it is a pro model. and it's from july 85 as someone stated. looking at the dropouts i think it used to belong to hulk hogan or somebody with a three foot spanner :shocked:
Title: Re: GT Pro, what year?
Post by: Bananaman on July 17, 2007, 09:11 AM: Mmm 85 Pro but them forks are not for that frame mate, should look more like Nick's on the Mach 1 with square cut outs and a brake hole :daumenhoch:
Title: Re: GT Pro, what year?
Post by: bmxbadger on July 17, 2007, 04:35 PM: Cheers for all the info guys, I assume the forks are from a later model then?
