1999 GT Performer

1999 GT Performer

This is my son's old bike that he used to ride. I ended up buying this off of an old high school buddy who bought it because he always wanted one when he was a kid (sound familiar). Anyway, I bought it for my son for his birthday one year. I think I was more excited than my son ever was. It is all original except for the U-Brake on the front. It used to have a Bulldog. I think I'll put the Bulldog back on to keep all original. It now sit's beside the "Black Knight" down at the shop. It was made in the USA in Santa Ana, California right before GT hit financial difficulties and was sold.

Thanks, I like the chrome frame.  It shines real nice when all polished up.

Re: 1999 GT Performer

why are some 99 performers having threaded fork and others with threadless.  I have a 98, and a 99 GT performer, both have threaded fork.

Re: 1999 GT Performer

These were made in Santa Ana? Really? GT moved to Huntington Beach, CA in 1986. Did they at some point move back to Santa Ana and start making their lower-end bikes in the USA again? Just wondering, I've never heard this before. I want more info on this... I guess I don't know much about GT after about '86-'87.
