1987 GT Pro Freestyle Tour Team Model

1987 GT Pro Freestyle Tour Team Model

1987 Gt Pro Freestyle Tour Team Model signed by Eddie Fiola

GT Pro Freestyle Tour signed by Eddie Fiola at the 2007 OS BMX gathering at Elysian Park. Bike is newly powder coated original color was blue then whoever I purchased it from decided to spray paint it pink terrible job so I decided to go with the o.g.purple/lavender to match the purple gt font on the stem which was done accidentally cause they forgot to powder it black but it actually worked out perfect. Everything on this bike is from its era except for the gyro which is a gyro2, fork standers are not gt, mags are actually from an 88', and the only other thing wrong is the spindle bolt on the power series cranks are not the original and my placing of the sticker is a little to high but if Eddie Fiola checked it out and signed it then its all good to me. This was a dream bike growing up but could never afford it back in those days but here it is just too bad its only a showbike.  Finally made some changes to the bike added the tuff II's changed the forkstanders to GT, finally got the right rear upper brake cable added these awesome matching super rare gt pegs and fixed the sticker placement only thing left for me to do is change the gyro to 1st gen.  and still searchin for the correct spindle bolts so if anybody has a spare let me know thanks.

hey Speadfreak the show was in SoCA Elysian park I was stoked after I got that autographed. Thats funny cause the original color of this bike was baby blue then I powder coated the same hot pink you have on your other PFT but powder was rough lookin so decided to change the color to purple only thing is you got both colors I got one that was mixed together to make purple. You got some sweet bikes there.

Nice color combo.  BITD the only complete bikes with black parts were chrome and black.  They should have been like this in 87!!

Man, I hope I can get him to sign one of mine like he did yours. That would be so cool!! I love that color too. Looks just like the one he's carrying in the ad. Good job on the build!
