Title: GT Mach 1
Post by: gmac on January 08, 2006, 08:52 AM
What's the deal with these ? The last 2 I've seen on U.S ebay went for $53 and $75 for f/f. They look real nice to me, but don't seem to make the money. I would have bought the last one, cos it was BIN, but he woouldn't ship to UK.


Cheers

They are good bikes. I bought one from the USA a couple of years ago. My 1st full resto, re-using all the bits. A good bike, decent quality frame & bits. Go for it if you get the chance.

How come they are so cheap then, or did I just miss out on a couple of serious bargains ?

they always seem reasonably cheap. If I am correct they are all cromo frames, just not considered up there with the GT Pro. I paid $50 plus shipping and mine was a buy it now as well.

Weston, I think we are talking old school here. The Mach 1 didn't make it over here in numbers BITD.
