Have one for the collection:
GT Outpost 1994/1995 (repainted):
SY5L000026
I say 1994/1995 as I am a bit torn on the year. The serial number would seem to indicate 1995, but the bike features mostly line up with the 1994 model (Araya rims, Shimano Alivio canti brakes), while both the fork and the stem are clearly marked '94. Of course, it could just be that the components were swapped at some point over the last 28 years.
The frame was already repainted red when I bought it, but when sanding it for a better repaint, I uncovered what I assume was the original color:
I couldn't figure out if this is Cobalt Blue (1994 model) or Bright Blue Marble (1995 model).
Given that the last 4 digits of the serial number are pretty low (000026), could it be that this frame was made in early 95 for a 94 model bike?
Any additional info is appreciated!
