Why redesign an 80's era bike, this is 2012. I bought an Avalanche Expert, new in 2010 and am glad I did because the 2011 model had a color scheme from the 80's. Not very cool.

@MrRocker989 yeah it's also half the cost of the next rig using fox that's anywhere near comparable...

How many times can you say " and umm uh ?'' while talking about bikes ! Does this dude really work for GT ? If so .. C'mon Man !

[MrRocker989]

for the fury they marzocchi instead of fox for the rear shock :(

Guys, don't bag on GT until you see the entire line.....There are alot of folks that have been with the brand since the beginning that are still working for the company, regardless of who owns them. So there is no mistake on recreating the past (i.e. Performer).... Also, there are some really unbelievable bikes that are coming...Zixang Ti.....Yeah, it's in there.... Rather than focusing on the past, let's focus on the future and how GT is working hard to regain.

@Jeffgothro I absolutely agree. I know what happened; they sold the company to Pacific Cycles, and sub company of Dorel Industries who builds home furniture, not bicycles. They buried GT even deeper after the bankruptcy in '98. I was a GT guy as well in the 90's, not anymore. Most of their product today is low quality foreign junk that deserves no better than to be sold in the nearest Kmart or Target department store. It's not the same company at all anymore, just a name plate.

BMX is dead. G.T. is dead. instead of bringing back dead 1980's bmx bikes, how bout bring back the old early 90's comp series framesets like the Psyclone and Xiang...and even the Richters and Bravados. I have a 09 Peace 9R, I love it, but imho everything you have made since is junk...what happen G.T., you used to make such killer bikes...sad.
