Lovely lovely frame here! Lucky lad! Is it a smouldering build then? With gradual move to GTesque parts then E.g Kore Stem and Bars? Black seatpost?
I never liked the look of the Judy SL yellow forks on GT's, think Black or original Mags look better. The Bright yellow seems to detract from the frames stunning looks. Whats with the low seat post too?

 

[Faghetaboutit]

Aye seatpost is canny low but that's how I roll just comes from years of riding bmx plus I don't tend to do many all day rides now so its mainy for a quick singletrack bash as and when. I think I may change a few bit around. I don't think kore is the way forward tho as they didn't really happen until later in the gt history so maybe syncros? As for the mag 21 sl ti's I just prefered the judys cos I know how to sevice them and don't have a knowledge on the 21's
