1987 GT Performer
1987 GT Performer
::My girls Pink Panther::
Here my most recent build for my fiancee. Since i had a few bikes already built, she asked me to build her one of her own.(most of you guys know what i mean). It took me a few months to get all the parts together, but it was worth it. Not all the parts are GT correct, since it was a custom build. I added the CW pedals since i really like them. She really likes this bike and so does everyone that lays eyes on it. Lou did the awesome paint job on this build..have to give him props for this one.. I will add the GT seat post decal later. Let me know what you guys think!
Here is a part breakdown:
F/F, GT mallet, GT wing logo sprocket restored (lou)
GT bars, seatpost: restored
AME Grips Rounds: New
Odyssey 2000 brake set:NOS
Odyssey levers: restored (lou)
Panaracer Freestyle tires in pink: NOS
Odyssey first gen. Gyro in pink: NOS
Tioga Beartrap headset: new
GT mags: restored
KMC Pink chain: NOS
Dominator Pink seat: NOS
GT Perormer Decals: re-pop
CW Pedals: restored
Odyssey seat clamp: NOS

Man, you guys and with your sweet bikes and the bright sun, right by the ocean none the less, are killing me.
The bike looks beautiful man. The combo of parts go very well together. You just can't go wrong with GT and CW......and the Pacific Ocean for that matter ![]()

Nothing wrong with riding a pink bike, especially a hot one like this. Just remember all of the girls that came over to see it when I took the pink CW out, ![]()
