hey Guys,

Here is my new 1994 GT RTS. Here is a story I made up for it...

It was a left over tech shop frame. A guy build it up in 1995 pretty as you see it, and then never really used it. All I had to do was give it a light polish, and change the pedals and seatpost so I could ride it. It is missing the 910 XTR rear indicator but other that that its pretty much perfect!

here are the specs!

Re:

guys.. I know. it is the largest rts made. the post is a 400 and has a lot of incersion. the Judy steerer was never cut.

it looks goofy but what can I do.. maybe take up basketball?
 
Blimey, that's huge.

Lovely spec. Similar on the route I'm going down, but frame size wise, completely the other end of the range :)

You've done a great job with it.

cheers
Chris
 
Looks to be in fantastic shape!

6'7" :shock: I guess us shorties had to subsidise the metal in your frames when we were buying our 15" and 16" ones :LOL:
