1985 GT Pro Performer

My first REAL bike

My parents bought me this bike back in 1985 and its been with me ever since, though it hasn't been ridden in probably 20 years or so.  I just recently pulled it out of storage and cleaned it up a bit.  It looks pretty much how it looked when I first got it.  The only thing I've changed are the tires (originally had blue compIII's) and the brakes (don't remember what kind, but they were blue anodized).

Re: 1985 GT Pro Performer

That an interesting looking frame for an 85... the rear drops look like the late 85's to 86 but the seat stays go into the middle the top tube like the 84's and the seat looks like an 84....either way cool bike...Look great with the mags....

Re: 1985 GT Pro Performer

Sweet bike, awesome that you held onto it!  Good choice ditching the blue tires.:D
