I love gt bmx I have a 1983 gt Nora cup pro which was my older brother s bike since I was only 3 years old when the came out he gave to me when I turned 10 that was in 1990 and I still have it to this day and I'm 43 years old ride every chance I get has the same parts on it as it did in 83 and ride s like a dream
River valley BMX Sumner Washington, also swan creek. Walt Ehnat. 1981 my hero Perry Ellis. First frame was a GT junior with European bottom bracket. Then switched to 81 Kuwahara and still have 82 cruiser. Clarence and Tony Perry rocked the dirt! Table tops live on! Pete's downhill, oakwood arena, mts, Bothell gravel track, Monroe nationals...
Man I had a Dyno VFR and a Robinson SST when I was a kid. Good memories and bad memories there hehe. On a side note, I STILL own my 1996 or 97 Haro Revo Mirra. My husband likes to ride it sometimes. Quick lesson for the uninitiated.... GT Cycles was the parent company in the late 1980s and 1990s. Robinson Powerlite Auburn Dyno Were all stand alone marks that were sold to GT but manufactured as independent products, they ran independent teams, and created their own designs and parts. My Robinson actually had the Powerlite 3 peice crank as it was the one of the best 3 piece cranks on the market in the 1990s!
i have a 2004 gt performer, it has massive axles and seems like the best of both worlds, its new enough to be modern and old enough to be built to last
@@clayvanalstyne7805 Sold my Dyno VFR and Robinson SST years ago but I still technically own a Haro Revo but my husband and nephew are the only ones who have rode it in years. Problem with getting old and having boobs is your boobs tend to get pretty beat up riding a bmx bike in your 40s haha.
@old man strength I think that’s a myth. I never actually tried it. I did but my mom was pretty furious when she found my rim the freezer and the food in the sink. 🤦🏼♂️
It's like I'm in front of the tv and after the commercial is over I would go to my mom and asked told her I want nothing else for the whole yr. I just want a GT bike. LOL!!!! Ahhh childhood.
LOL! Love the good o’l GT Commercials. Never owned a GT, but I had a Mongoose, SE BRONCO, & I loved it! My two favorite bikes, SE RACING, Mongoose & GT.
I had an se racing hauler got me a bunch of se gear at a nationals from their factory pro. It got stolen then got a cycle craft then a hawk. I still own both.
Auburn, Powerlite, Robinson, and Dyno were all their own brands. I have an Auburn frame but no parts. The Auburn and Powerlite frames and complete bikes are worth a good amount of money these days. I still own a Haro Revo. Sold my Robinson SST, Dyno VFR, and I had one of those stripped down S&M Challengers you could order from the back of BMX Plus in the ads for like 250.00 usd. Dunno what happened to that one though.
@Headless Man In A Garbage Can haha yep. I remember all those names! My earlier bikes before that expensive Auburn set up I had were a Mongoose and a GT Pro Performer. Had a Diamond Back for a short while. Keeping in mind every bike I had got upgraded or changed. Had more fun showing off my bikes than riding em
I had a GT dyno in the 90s loved that bmx had it over a year paid £100 and my bike for it... Chain snapped and bearings went a few times...but they were the days thing was everybody wanted one so they was always getting nicked
BIG E was the BEST! MONGOOSE???? REALLY !! ASK anyone from the 80's -90s what they wanted ? Trust me I know, My father was Richard Long, Co-Founder , RIP!
I remember hearing the sad news of his passing in '96. Can't believe it's been over 20 years now, he definitely lead the company in the right direction back then.
It's not a GT it's a Kuwahara Primo. Cro Mo indicates it was made of chromoly tubing and not steel. Probably early to mid 1980s. If it is complete and original as well as in good condition it's probably worth close to 1500$ in an easy sale too.
Mongoose better than GT ? I guess they are if you take away the quality weight advantage and handling you may want to take away the cranks frank and forks then and only then does mongoose come close

@@Cheeseburger.Launch.Sequence 🤣🤣. My problem is I grew old and my line of work desecrated my body.

Are GT BMX's still as good as they were back in the 90's?
Oh yeah they are still a go to brand
Grew up down the street from Gary I like that they used our local track in one of the commercials
River valley BMX. 1980-1986! Dad ran the starting gate. Oakwood arena was a dream also

Proud owner of a GT Auburn (with a few upgrades) I bought in 98. Spent $960 on it all together and now it just collects dust in the attic :/

The Lumberjack!
Best bike make ever lol Gary Toner for life lol
yo lo recuerdo al del lentes asé más de 25 años
I own a 99 gt pro performer
Gary got an A in Chemistry and decided to teach it in high school till he got lung cancer and.. well its a long story!
What he was never a teacher. He works down on the port of Tacoma. I forget the shop name but I've seen him there several times through the years.
I miss my 96 interceptor. First year with 1 and 1/8th headset. Some fucktards stole it not knowing what he got.
I have two of thoes
In the 80's I had a GT with mushroom handle and everything made in the US . it was made if anybody knows where to get let me know, No china crap
Gary Ellis is Walter white.
Whose the moose?
LOL the pizza one is so funny
i own a 90 Auburn
Anybody help me figure out what gt I have the badges are primo cro mo
It's not a GT it's a Kuwahara Primo. Cro Mo indicates it was made of chromoly tubing and not steel. Probably early to mid 1980s. If it is complete and original as well as in good condition it's probably worth close to 1500$ in an easy sale too.
I own Gary's personal race clothes including his world's jersey and his jersey with all his wins.
QUE LOCURA ...
Here in 20202
What is it like almost 19 thousand years in the future? lol
GT = Gammelt Tis
I love my two gt dyno)
Jajjajaja amasing comercial.
Mongoose better than GT ? I guess they are if you take away the quality weight advantage and handling you may want to take away the cranks frank and forks then and only then does mongoose come close
Orange Y!!!!
epic xD
Too bad they are made over seas now..what a shame
Gt box 3.0 was a heavy pos. The steal frame was lighter. Made no sense. No wonder why they fell off the wagon
mongoose was better.
siqbrah you are crazy or weren't there.
mongoose was great, in 1986.
Nope GT
Gt baby or nothing u got dat
83 expert was a beast
