Retro Newbie
Hi everyone! This is my first post here. I need some help identifying this GT. I’m a road bike guy and like to restore and ride steel bikes. I found this bike for super cheap ($35) and was needing a new project, so thought I’d give it a try.
I’ve been doing some research and I can’t figure out what this thing is. The group set is Alivio, it’s got the rear cantilever brake guide but has V brakes installed, Tioga headset and Kore stem, Indy C fork. It doesn’t have the candy blue color and white decals like I’ve seen on the Rebound, it’s got the yellow and red multicolored decals like on the Karakoram. It’s got the exact shape and size residue from a “4130 custom butted” sticker, but it’s peeled off. The frame color is a darker blue, almost black or purple. It does have a sicker that says 20 inch frame, and another one that says Designed in USA, Built in Taiwan. Also it has an integrated seat post clamp.
Any help figuring out what this works s would be great. Thanks! Hope I can make some friends and learn a bunch here, and get this bike rolling again!
