As someone who's owned many GT bikes in the past and present, I am still hoping to own a nice chromoly steel frame from the early '90's like an Avalanche, Bravado or Karakoram.
So before I place a Wanted post in said section of this wonderful forum, I would like to gauge how much I can expect to pay for a frame or complete bike of that era.
My preference would be a 16" frame as all my GT's past and present are that size which suits me best as I am 5'10 with a short upper torso (I have shrunk about an inch due age and wear and tear in my upper spine).
I would be very happy to find any of the 3 mentioned bikes/frames in a good condition from between 1990 and 1993 and I have areal soft spot for the 1992 models as I owned a number of GT's from that year including my current Pantera AL and 2 Timberline's in both colours available at that time. I spent many hours looking at the GT catalogues and always fancied those aforementioned models.
So, like I said I am just gauging the price and likelihood of finding one in a good condition that I can restore and/or build up.
Anyway, to wrap this up I hope the lovely people here can give me some ideas what to expect and in anticipation of that I would like to thank you in advance for any advice or information offered!
