1991 GT Pro Performer

1991 GT Pro Performer

A '91 frame painted and stickered as an '87.

I bought this frame off a fellow Museum member to use as my old school daily rider. He had built an entire '87 from this frame (presumably because '87 Pro Performer frames tend to be expensive). I added the following parts:
Fork: 1987 Performer fork with OG paint
Wheels: Skyway sealed bearing Tuff II's in lavender (Redline anodized purple drop savers on the rear)
Tires: NOS Kenda K55 (Panaracer freestyle tread) gumwalls
Brakes: NOS Lee Chi's in lavender
Seat clamp: NOS DK 2-piece in anodized purple
Seat post: chromoly micro-adjust
Seat: NOS white Velo race seat
Pedals: NOS VP-747's in anodized purple
Crank: Poverty 180mm one piece, 100% chromoly
Bottom Bracket: YST "sealed mechanism" loose bearing w/ NOS ODI bearing cup cover in lavender
Chain: Lime green KMC Z410
Chainring: NOS Tioga CD in white (44T)
Power disc: NOS Odyssey Torque Converter
Freewheel: Dicta 16T, chrome plated
Stem: Unknown (started like as blue anodized - stripped and polished)
Headset: NOS Neco chrome plated
Handlebars: Odyssey Civilian Svelte new school bars in limited edition lavender
Grips: Lime green A'ME Tri's
Donuts: Unknown lavender grid design
Upcoming mods: Just got the 1st generation Odyssey gyro back from the powdercoaters (it's now white) - will be adding it with NOS upper and lower 1st generation Odyssey gyro cables in a few weeks when I find the time.

Why do people keep overpaying for lower white 1st gen gyro cables? I've got 'em all day long for $11.99 http://www.porkchopbmx.com/NOS-Odyssey- … DB1261.htm

I try not to keep more than 2 or 3 bikes around... all the room is taken up with parts for sale smile

This one is my daily rider - I should post new pics... done a bit more with it recently... 1st gen gyro with NOS cables, Tech 6 levers, 883 adjusters front and rear - if I can ever get spindles made it'll be running CPI cranks.
