Re: GT Agressor score today. Whats the history?

I had one of those, it looks stock apart from the back wheel.  I can't really remember what brakes they came with.  I rode my skateboard from Venice to Culver city and bought one from the bike shop there back in Jan 1990.  Pretty much destroyed/ground through the bash guard and the sidewalls of over dozens of (now nice collectable expensive) tyres on the ledges at Venice and along to Santa Monica in about 2 months.

So it's a 90 model.  It is sort of the second generation agressor, gt did rush to have a bash guard bike out asap back then and made a botched attempt with the first gen frame, I think they all cracked and it was never really in the catalouges or advertised.  Short lived model, I think in 91 it went to being a removable bolt on bash guard.

That one looks in great condition, can't really tell but the bash plate looks good, can't see underneath it.  Mine had the fork ends trashed as well as the chain stays ground up completely.

Looking at yours now, are they odyssey brake levers?  Maybe they came with odyssey calipers?  I ended up with the combo of pitbull rear and BOA front, which was very common then.

Nice bike.  Brings back some good memories.

Re: GT Agressor score today. Whats the history?

NICE early 90 aggressor.. first year they came complete from gt I believe.. your looks pretty good too. the rear wheel may be a tough find but brakes, seat and grips are pretty common..  hell, even decals are easy to find for that model...

Re: GT Agressor score today. Whats the history?

Heres a early 89 model, these were know to crack that's why they changed it to how yours is. GT rushed to get this out cause haro came out with the bash guard master. http://i1054.photobucket.com/albums/s491/johncobra1/4f2b1605.jpg

Re: GT Agressor score today. Whats the history?

Nice grab, I had one and gave it away around 1998 to a guy who's kid didn't have a bike, I hated the way that thing rode, one of the most awkward bikes I ever rode. Being a collector now I would love to have one but back then I thought it was complete garbage.

Yeah I don't remember them being very popular. Kinda like the vertigo compared to a performer. Now they are a big deal because they are more rare. I know I would have liked to score that!

Re: GT Agressor score today. Whats the history?

nice aggressor, this one has the earlier type forks, cool! it seems stock, it only needs the rear wheel, it's sun mistral rim with loose ball gt hub. the rear brake was a pitbull and the front changed between a boa, an odyssey 2001 and a nippon depending on availability. and yes, the geometry was awkward, the frame was strong for the era, though.

Re: GT Agressor score today. Whats the history?

Brian65, Hey you said stickers are easy to find for that model? I am looking for that exact set. I purchased it new and still have the owners manual and receipt for it, One day it was stolen out of the garage and I seen a kid riding it, then chased him in my car and for obvious reasons he got away, next day all the stickers were scratched off but seen a kid riding it, yanked him off of it and after police got involved as someone called cause poor kid lost it in the middle of the road, I got my bike back. So went to dealer a few years later and they never heard of bike, lol, I showed them papers that I got it there. So none the less I called GT and they sent me stickers for it, but they were not the right ones and said they did not make them anymore. I would love to get this bike back together and either give it to the kids or get rid of it eventually.
