I remember when GT used built in America and assembled in America but they were MADE in Taiwan. Sleight of hand was a very snake move that ticked a lot of the brand.
Yep. 1996 was a classic year for that. Only the top 4 bikes I think were actually made in USA the rest only built in the USA. But they used the built in the USA logo on all of them. Definitely an attempt to deceive buyers.
I never had a GT BMX. Best i ever had was a late 80's Norco XXL chrome 4130 frame with all in red anodized hubs,brakes,stem,chain ring,and seat post clamp.
I didn’t as kid either. I only ever got my mates hand-me-down shitty brand frames. My mum bought me a Moto-X style bike for Christmas in ‘78, but I wanted was a BMX. 😟
@@re-rides that is exactley what happened to me. that bmx I bought in my 20's.In 1978 I had a red fake tank single speed hippo bike too. It was great if you did not have to pedal,lol.
It’s crazy I’ve been watching this video just for research & now I own a pro series & a performer 96!!
Haha. It’s easy to do.
96 performer with mags weels most beautifull bike I ever ride,súper tecnique vídeo, greetings from Uruguay 🇺🇾
Certainly a great bike. Thanks for watching.
I still have the physical version GT catalogues of 1996 and 1997. As well as my 1997 Dyno Air i bought brand new that year.
Nice. Keep hold of them.
Man to be a kid again. I love chrome on anything, especially a bmx bike
Chrome is awesome.
I brought the Performer in 96, and the bash guard to go with it, still have it and it still looks Mint! 💯
Nice one. Got to keep that til the grave.
GT was the best big brand cycle back in that time.
Ive been a GT fan since the early 80s. Best bikes back then too.
Still have my cruiser stamped 95 with profile 3 piece ❤️thanks for the video 🔥
Thanks for watching. Always wanted a 92-95 cruiser. Closest I got to it is. Set of 93 forks.
I had that pro series 24 new in 96 i was 16… that thing was quick 3-4 pedals ur at full speed and the performer and a 78 mcs spyder
Nice.
I have a 1997 GT speed series XL and would love to see a video on 97 stuff.
I’ll see what I can dig out. I’m just about to build a 98 Mongoose. I can do a GT after that one.
Miss race bikes

Can't wait for the gt bikes of 1997

I’ve got a 1997 GT Pro Freestyle in titanium. Very rare leftover.

Can you tell me who the rider that was trying to jump over the backyard fence in the 1997 GT Dead Sailor video and what bike they had?
Sorry I can’t help.
I miss my black Mach 1. Dang
A great colour that one.
I’ve been buying every 98 pro performer I can find.
Sounds like a plan.
I have a 96 gt vertigo very nice light bike. Also have a 96 Dyno air also a very nice ride as the vertigo.
Nice

I just picked up a pro series with the serial number YC96100357 stamped back GT with a lil R can anyone give me some info if it’s a made in USA
The YC serials indicate Taiwan made I believe.
@@re-rides thank you
The dropouts have some purpose .yeah well built
Absolutely.
I heard the 95 GT Speed Series was banned from all competition because it was made too good.
Makes a great story.
You're missing some bikes. What about the VFR. The NSX and NSX2. The Nitro???
Hey mate, saving those for the Dyno History Vid.
