Hi, I've got a GT Outpost Trail, frame is fairly scratched and has little patches of surface rust, eg where there are little chips and where the cables rubbed, but seems to be solid.
The only problem is the massive seatpost is completely stuck in the frame, I have even tried opening the seat clamp area up with a screw driver and spraying WD40 down the gap every day for a week but it won't budge. As a result of this there are little 'rips' on either side, but I don't think it affects the integrity of the frame (besides, the seatpost isn't going ANYWHERE.) Plus it comes with a brilliant gaffer-taped seat, you will truly be the envy of all your friends!
I have worked out that it's basically worthless to me as the seatpost is just too tall for me, so if you can swap me something lying around that YOU don't need, e.g. I could do with a chain whip or some brake pads, that would be awesome
Also there is the handlebars with those cool Shimano trigger shifters and brake levers in one unit from the 90's, I way prefer these to grip shifts. The handlebars, brakes, original grips and GT branded stem can be yours for £10
I will post pics on friday (think I posted a pic of this green machine a little while ago somewhere on here),
I would prefer pick up from Fulham or can meet you near some tube station, I don't think it'd be worth posting this anywhere but if you really want me to I'll have a look at prices
