1983 GT Pro Nora Cup
« on: July 01, 2010, 11:45 AM »
This is number 3 of 4 GT's that I currently own. First got the idea for this build when I saw a GT Pro that had been build by an Australian guy in the first Classic BMX Mag that the Rad shop sells. After weeks of staring at the pics and reading about it I though I would build one up to a similar spec and colour scheme so that I would have more than just a few pages to look at and admire. The pics really don't do this bike justice - hope you like it as much as I do  :)

Yep love it mate... top drawer!!

I'd maybe go for pedals with blue anno cages though... Suntour MP1000's would look pretty trick  :daumenhoch:
