How much would a reasonable price be nowadays for a GT LTS Thermoplast? I am thinking about selling mine.

Mines a 1997 GT STS-1 version and when I bought it everything apart from the saddle, tyres and stem were original and in very good little used order. I paid £450 posted but think I got a bargain.

Been 3/4 on eBay not selling at 350/400/450 from std to custom spec

I'd say you'd get more by splitting it as you have some desirable parts there. I adore my STS, I am lucky to own some great bikes and have sold some great ones also, could not part with my STS though as it can easily be ridden alongside my mates modern bikes for all but the biggest stuff.

I'd be interested if you decide to sell!

Not sure if I ever added mine to the thread, but after some updates, I think it's about time I did, as I am done, and pleased with the final result (a long time in the making and many changes along the way).

The 1st Gen are defo worth more with the early 96 serial number and the TI Linkage. Also if it has all the original decals with LTS not STS. I had two mint ones. I parted with the 18" which is Now part of GM's collection. Looks Amazing BTW...

+1 !

Not less than 800€, and possibly more enought, depend on components.

Price would not decrease for these bike..

Hi All

I'm building up an old STS that was completely stripped, including the inner brake and gear cables and I'm having a nightmare trying to feed the new ones through.
Reading a few threads, it seems that it's not just me being a klutz!
Could anyone give me some tips?? Is the frame open inside or are there internal routings???
