Hi for sale is my gt rts 3, i have had it about 18 months, always wanted one but could never afford it, but its just in the garage doing nothing as i prefer to use a hardtail my alpine stars. I have changed a few parts its got shimano v brakes, rockshox forks, alloy bars, alloy stem. i have got...

its just a bit of fun really, some people might take it a bit too seriously, it may have been done before, but so what, i am just interested in other peoples bikes especially the more interesting designs which we may have not seen or heard of.

thought i would throw this one out there, i personally like different frame designs from the usaual triangle designs, i have a astars cromega which i have had from new 92, and have recently bought a gt rts both are great bikes i think, and importantly just look great. would like other peoples...

hi i have a set of of rst 171 forks, taken from my gt rts 3, cosmetically they are pretty good, they are a bit soft for me, may need a service, i have changed to rockshox judy so dont need them, they are yellow and not disc compatiable. open to offers, but i know p&p will be around £10 as thats...

hi i am looking for the rear triangle for a gt rts 3 in polished aluminium, mine is cracked beyond repair. thanks

i would find an engineering workshop and get their input, my gt rts cracked around the steer tube, my local engineering firm is going weld the cracks and they seem to think there wont be any future problems. I wanted to replace the steer tube with a new tube, but no one was interested, so had to...

Hi are the man 5 still for sale, is it threaded as well[/u][/code]

hi does anyone have any info on servicing these forks, and if i can get spare elastomers, my forks seem a bit spongy, i would be grateful for any assistance, also are these forks any good, i get the feeling they are on the low budget side, but i could be wrong, i am only keeping them as they...

Thanks all for the input,I have no intention of selling it, but if the tube is replaced and the weld is very good not sure if that would have any effect on the value of the bike, plus I doubt if it would be noticed, but like I said. have no plans to sell anyway

Hi Posted about a week ago about an rts 3 I bought off eBay, thought I had a bargin, but while cleaning it I found that the steer tube has 2 cracks, I was a bit gutted but has spoken to a few engineering firms and they seem to think its not that big a deal, they have said it can sorted for...

hi these started manufacture in 91/92, remember seeing them in the brochure when i bought my cromega lx which is the exact same colour scheme as this bike, but not sure what they are called, i will try to find out, i think they were called the T series, but not 100%, they did several versions...

Thanks very much

Hi I have a GT rts 3, I am thinking about a front and rear disc conversion,does anyone know of a rear disc mount that bolts straight on,or do I need to weld one on. Also if you could tell me where I can buy the item and any pics would be useful.

Hi I am looking for either a pair of rock shox qudras, mags or even a pair of marzocchi forks, I am replacing a few parts on my GT rts3, and I don't think the original rts forks are up to the job. Also would prefer them in yellow.
