That was a craigslist score?  How cool.  I saw that bike in 95 at a local shop and wanted it so bad, but the shop would not budge on the price, nearly $800.  They sold it to another shop, I tracked it down, and bought it in late 96 for just under $800.  Beautiful bike, I went on to get the cruiser version, too.  Lucky you, finding it on the cheap.

Nice bike, currently restoring one just like it. I would say yours is about 95% accurate, because the bike originally came with center pull rear brakes. Not the side pulls like the ones in your pic and i believe they were black in color. Brakes and a matching front tire and it would be 100%. Great Craigslist find though.



this is what the original brakes should look like. This is a pic of the GT speed series team XL i bought back in 1996 or end of 95, i cant really remember, it has a 1995 serial number on it though.
