1996 GT Mach One - BMXmuseum.com

The Restore

Original Equipment on this very light American made early mid school includes frame, fork, stem, cranks and chain ring. Period correct components that came on the bike as I found it include vintage S&M Slam bars, Bullet Proof rear hub, Odyssey Triple Trap pedals, and Tektro V brakes. I added Kenda Comp III Tires, a NOS old school seat clamp that has been stripped and polished as well as new cables, housing and a NOS Tektro two finger lever. The cranks, bars and fork were in bad shape and needed to be completely soaked in vinegar for two days and then polished. Although they came back to life, they still suffer from some clouding in the chrome. However, they were just too nice to ignore and came out looking pretty good. This bike has been stripped, cleaned, reassembled, polished and is now a great ride.

This 1996 GT Mach One survivor features a 100% chromoly American made frame, fork, and crankset. It is spec'd with vintage S&M slam bars, GT stem, GT-Dyno drop nose saddle, a vintage polished seat clamp, Odyssey Triple Trap pedals, Kenda Comp III tires, a NOS blue anodized Origin Eight 44 tooth chain ring and Dk signature grips with Dyno Dinosaur Grip Donuts.
