Me and my mountain bike a G.T. avalanche 2.0

[s8kruz]

Dude, I have ridden all those tracks. Some of the tracks are a bit of a precious memory considering they are gone now after all the logging on the Tantragee saddle, so this video is extra sepcially cool. Nice work.

[rc8rsracer]

nic e i got the 3.0 disc

[GalacticGod666]

JefferyT...I hear ya! I had a GT Pro Performer as a kid, and just last month my wife and I went out and bought GT mountain bikes! I got a 2010 Avalanche 1.0 and she got a 2010 Avalanche 3.0 Disc.

[g1deonian]

I've got the exact same bike but tricked it up a little by upgrading the stem, bars and saddle. I also found that the OEM brake pads are shite and that the brakes are fine with good quality pads. I also changed to Panaracer FireXCPro tyres which are brill.

The GT Avalanche 2.0 Disc is a fine bike.!

Next upgrades in order are.. forks, wheels and sram gearing.

[HIYA67]

@g1deonian get some hydraulic brakes you wont regret it lol and for fork i would say get a nice epicon its not that expensive and its nice and wheel set XTR but its expensive as hell lol

[auntyvicki]

I have the same brake issues with the disks

but the rest of the bike is very good for the money

($525 Canadian)

I crashed it badly this summer and broke 2 ribs and my shoulder blade

The bike was fine ,barely a

scratch!!

Can't wait for the snow to melt

[ChrisBerty33]

I have the same exact bike with the disc brakes

[Hedged001]

lekker!

[unlimitedshit]

i've got gt 2.0 2009

well, i'm lucky to own one, but

i figured some problems with its disk brakes

and speed swither

[bikedrifter339]

[LiLLinz28]

[LiLLinz28]

first of all you dont lead a boring life, i would kill for that life style, nice bike i also love biking too. check out my gt i-drive 4.0 video.

[taivox]

GT avalanche 2.0 disc or Cube analog disc? What should I choose...?

[m6i6k6e]

love the bike

[jrh767]

i have that bike, and also upgraded the forks, but the chain has snapped on me, and the front calliper leaked oil from the hydrolics so I had to get a new one.

[boje2007]

ive got the gt avalanche 2.0 09 model its great

[Sn0wFreak]

lol in joking its kool man

[kawikx85bigwheel]

[SnyperNerf]

nixontankgirl im very happy to see that a wonderful sport like this took you off your bad habits keep up the good work.

[slyflydc]

dont get the 09 version get the 08 everythink is the same, but the 09 is much more expensive

[allamericannews]

hey im looking for a mountain bike that i can use for like normal use like on the street and can jump on ramps and stuff any one got any suggestions

[MtbJoy213]

is the GT avalanche disc 1.0 2009 a good mtb for street?

[UnSaintLike]

Just get slicks on it. Shoudl do the job

[MtbJoy213]

are the standard wheels good though?

[UnSaintLike]

Yeah, standard wheels will do. You can get lighter ones though

[MtbJoy213]

so the gt avalanche 1.0 2009 could ride like bmx style riding cause thats what I wanna do

[UnSaintLike]

what i meant is that 2009 GT Ava 1.0 with slicks would be a good commuting bike ( street ). If you are going to freeride and do flatland tricks, get a freeride or bmx bike

[brandonparsons123]

stephen

[killboy397]

[1992GingerDan]

[45sf5]

Real nice video is there any bike you recommend for a novice like me, thanks.

[zomo7]

i want more of a street bike should i get a jump bike?

[djrockdogg]

I got a GT Avalanche my self and i put it through all kinds of beating....Nice solid bike, love riding it...

[JefferyT]

Who sings the first song? I was mountain biking way back when Julie Furtado was all the rage. I miss it and will buy a trustey GT to get me back in the spin of things.

[nixontankgirl]

Its 'Incubus' from the 'morning view' album.... and get back into it dude, it's still awesome...

[slodeth5]

Finally, a sane mountain bike video. I'd love to ride that trail.

[ABCD241093]

Hi i have just bought a gt avalnche 2.0 2008 model is it ok to be doing jumps on it. thanks.

[nixontankgirl]

My old bike was a Jamis and I killed it at the 4X track....when I got my GT the dude said if I did the same thing's then i should get a more expensive bike...but I not have enough cash....so I gonna try not to kill it...it's a good bike but not top of the range....ya know??

[HIYA67]

@ABCD241093 GT is known for the tripple triangle design so it very sturdy.. i dont do jump but just a heads up the frame is nice and sturdy

[dannyboy3546]

@HIYA67 agreed i have one that i converted to bmx with shocks it works really good!

[tuktukskagal]

I have a trek bike;and i love it;the video made me want to join you;looks like fun;big-time....and healthy too;my bike is perfect for me.

[sookster54]

I got an Avalanche 2.0 as well (blue/grey), love the bike and is bigger and 5x better than my old bike, I just got it last month when needing a new bike was long overdue. So far it's damn reliable but I've been hearing things about the front & rear derailleurs but that might be on the older models. Sooner or later I'll be upgrading pedals and brakes (perhaps to BB7) and maybe throw on XT derailleurs, it already came with the XCR fork and it's quite nice.

[nixontankgirl]

This is pissing me off......you might aswell tell a street skater to go to a half pipe, or a free diver to get into scuba...every body has their own style dude...this is what i do.....

[YouthGuitar]

i realize that man, all im not saying its bad, and just saying you know. i like doing what you do, just going to have fun on a bike trail, and maybe some jumps at the park, but you know i like your style

[sookster54]

That bike is a x-country model, it isn't designed for extreme downhill or racing or anything, I ride mine alot through tight and loose trails and around the city.

[YouthGuitar]

ok, i see now, i ride this really old gt bmx cruiser,in which is meant to jump and go down hills and race...

[cheerupper]

That is not so extreme!

I`m 14 and I dive so fails fster and fster!

[nixontankgirl]

Whatever. I never said it was extreme. If ya read the info it even says it is not extreme. smart arse. When ya 40 I bet ya a lazy fat fucker that cant even ride a bike.

[dylan741852963]

wooow that's extreme i have the same bike

[mcrae200008]

dude u should find some better tracks with jumps this bike is a very good bike i have it it is good for jumps. Mate if your in Australia Brisbane go to mt Cottha or Blue nurses at brookfield goodgoing mate!!

[thejudgeofall]

...Looks like an awesome place for MTB.FTW.

[vikingfotball]

i love this bike!!

i have a weak vid, but it was the first time i went mtbking

[helmetless]

I agree on the list with the Outpost 2008 of my bro... upgraded with deore comps and a Suntour XCR as fork ;)

[Johnnyf232]

That was extreme!!! (not lieing)

[vikingfotball]

im just getting into this sport, and i decided against the trek 4300 disc, and get a 2.0 this thursday, they order it tomorrow morning, my g/f is thinking about gettin the 2.0 as well, hope its good! if i like it ill upgrade in a year or so to a zaskar or marathon

[COOLoutSON]

IM just getting in too, but an expensive bike isnt really in the budget , and ive broken around 4 cheap bikes $150 ones going moutain biking. Any suggestions on cheap durable mountain bikes?

[WilsonPL]

TRIPLE TRIANGLE FTW !!!!

[minerovich]

[gnffg]

[ediff2001]

[ediff2001]

go as far as your budget will allow, if its the avalanche your after go for the 1.0 dick, comes with hydraulics! wirth the extra me thinks,

Cool runnin man!

[gustavobelo]

yo tengo esa misma!!!! un caño de bike

[v3rsu5]

ok but specialized all the way

[goodman111]

My GT Avalanch 2.0 rocks but parts are bit easy to brake so cant hammer it about too much... And need to oil it monthly. But anyway wicked first time bike...

[jamnoopers]

looks fun!

i'm about to get a gt avalanche 3.0 disc

[dagga45]

i ame from norway and having the same bike

GT AVELANCE 2.0 gt i the best bike ever

[ompmartin]

er det myke dempegafler på disse?

[dagga45]

ja da

[ompmartin]

FLOTT... har bestilt meg en gt chucker 2.0 som jeg trolig får i februar...hvist ikke jeg tar den, kjøper jeg en avalanche..

[dagga45]

chucker er en veldig god sykkel

:D

[ompmartin]

ja visst,,kompis av meg har en,.

[aaa111kkk999]

how much are these

[nixontankgirl]

I bought it in new zealand from R+R sports in nelson for nz$999. cost more than my car! love it!

[LGfan1122]

are the gt bikes better then the konas

[nixontankgirl]

i think the gt is way better. better design and better gear. the only thing i did not like with the 2.0 is the suntour forks. i had them changed for the forks from the 1.0 at no extra cost.

[markocarrr]

i have gt avalanche 3.0
