HI All,
I've just finished this rebuild. I've owned this since '98, bought as a custom build from Leisure Lakes in the UK. Mostly original, new:
Bushings
Shock (steal from eBay in 2010)
Bomber crown
Top link pivot (the dumbbell shaped one, cracked and had to have a stainless one made)
Rear mech (c200
I've just moved to Vancouver and needless to say the riding here is amazing. This is my only ride although I am saving for something special! She rides beautifully though after setting up as per the GT instructional videos. I spent a while putting 3M film on the frame as I had replaced decals many times before. Slow but not too bad with my wife's hairdryer, time and beer.
I'm very pleased with the result. I'm also pleased to introduce myself, there are some great bikes on here, kudos to you all.
