The front derailleur mount on my GT Edge Aero has been damaged beyond the point where the derailleur will correctly align. The mounting face is indented from the clamp and the slot distorted due to abuse over the years, so I think the mount needs to be removed and re-welded. Any ideas if this is...

I've got a pair of Judy XLC's on my GT LTS which are the spring and cartridge variety (type 3?). They're long since past their best before date and I was wondering if I can rejuvenate them by installing the internals from a 1999-2002 era Hydracoil service kit. Does anyone know if this is...

how interchangeable are the cones for a shimano rear axle? I've got an M755 rear axle that's about given up the ghost (bearings and cones are pitted), however, the availability of spare cones seems pretty scarce now. Is it feasable to use a more readily available (more modern) cone with the...

me and a few mates have been toying with the idea of a camping expedition on the bikes (nothing too extreme). We planned to carry tents, sleeping bags, etc on the bike, but my GT hardtail does not have the fixings to allow the fitting of a sturdy rear rack for panniers. I seen a few variants...

I have a friend who has a Raleigh Dynatech 605ti that has a Suntour SL groupset. He has managed to snap one of the chain links, so is now after a new chain. I know nothing about Suntour stuff, but would imagine that it would be compatible with a Shimano chain. Would this be a fair assumption?

I've got a Wrench Force track pump with an auto-select head that allows you to switch between schrader and presta valves.... in theory. The selection gubbins inside the head seems to have packed in, so it now only pumps up one type of valve. My question is can this type of head be serviced / can...

Way back in January, I picked up an LTS1000 frame & most of the groupset off Gumtree for 80 quid. The frame was encrusted with muck, mould and god knows what. It was a lurvely shade of orange and the decals had started to flake off. However, the paintwork was in pretty good nick, but the plan...

Being a bit a of a GT fan, I've often wondered about getting a more modern i-drive bike. My problem is that my GT knowledge doesn't really extend beyond the 90's (other things took over my interests - like most people). I've had a look for info on the history of the i-drive model range, but I...

I've recently finished building a GT LTS 1000, to which I've fitted a pair of Rock Shox Judy Xl forks. I got them of ebay, so I stripped and re-greased them before fitting. The damper cartridge worked OK and all the other internals seemed to be there (although I'm not sure what should be inside...

I've finally tracked down an annoying rattle to loose water bottle mounts (after suspecting front mech / bottom bracket/ cranks, etc.) The frame is an alu GT LTS 1000, so I'm guessing the mounts are swaged in rather than brazed in. I've stripped the paint of the frame so now there is probably a...

I thought I'd share a couple of pictures of my new project - a 1998 GT LTS 1000. I think it was a bit of a bargain - £70 for the frame, XTR rear mech, XT front mech, cranks and brakes / shifters. The frame was covered in moss and caked on grease when I got it, but a bit of work with the Fenwicks...

its got disc brakes as well :) pick up only from Motherwell

Does anyone know the difference between the LTS 1000 DS and XC models? I've found what I believe is an XC frame (not sure it is as most of the decals are missing) for sale. It has an XTR rear mech and XT front mech and brakes. Looking at Bikepedia the kit on it looks pretty similar to a DS, but...

just noticed a nice looking GT Lobo, seems to new on here... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Gt-lobo-dh-bike-/ ... 014wt_1125
