1990 GT Xizang (20" frame)

mtbdave · Sep 29, 2016

Finally got around to building this up, still needs a good polish and finishing touches (Xt flat pedal's with GT toe clips/straps)

Not sure about decals as I haven't seen any designs from 90.

All comments welcome (good or bad)

Re:

Loving that Dave

Are you leaving her naked decal wise or are you sticking with the 1990 black decals?

Indeed it is retro Roy a TTN frame (note no "made in USA stamping)

As for decals, I will get some black ones made up and see what they look like, I will have to give her a good old polish first !!

Thanks for the comments so far,
am gonna weigh it tomorrow (bathroom scales) just out of interest as it's a 20" frame and has standard equipment on it (no titainium) it feels light, but we will see just how light a titanium "gate" can be!!

Re:

Great to see another lovely Xizang complete.
Trying to decide if I should have black or silver post/stem/bars on mine so your pics have helped.
Looking good!!
