GT Tequesta rescued for hack bike

[northerndave]

Been scouring gumtree for cheap as chips hack bikes, just don't fancy taking the FAT down the shops/pub!.. Picked this up tonight for the price of a decent round, all pretty much original albeit looking like something out of Indian Jones what with the cobwebs.

Now to strip and rebuild, pray for a sunny Saturday...

And there we go, all done and ready to go. Girlfriend said that I'd end up with a hack bike I didn't want to hack and I think she was right.....

Never owned a GT, but think they look awesome... and for 40 sheets we've got a winner.

525 is seriously strong stuff. Favoured by 'ard tourists. For 40 squid a proper bargain!

Result, thats mint for the money especially!
Its true, hack bikes are not easy to do if you care about bikes.

If those were welded onza bar-ends that came on it and you don't want them shoot me a price.

nice bike and as you say maybe to good for a hack bike?

If I ever want to buy a bike then it will always be to good for a hack :roll:

re:

been offered one for around 50, but it's also an 18" they are seriously the biggest 18" around. My gt is a 16" and would love to find an 16" bravado or tequesta sometime...
