1. 2090 here
2. I'm still doing downhill trails on a 90's fully rigid mountain bike and i don't fall off that much, i cant imagine what it must be like with such slack geometry....!
3. MBUK
4. круто
5. I dont think this was such a huge machine even by the time it came out...I mean, there was the TOMAC magnum 204, the INTENSE uzzi DH, the SPECIALIZED FSR (that whole team was awesome with palmer, voreis, and saiz) , lets also not forget those 4 chained monster cannondale had around winning everything, and many others.....actually gt wasnt even one of the strongest dh teams around by that time..... nice bike tho
6. This Lobo is owned by me and is one of the many awesome bikes featured on the forum www.therustychainring.co.uk
7. Back in 1992 Team GT was on the downhill tracks on GT Xizang titanium bikes and those golden colored Rock Shox Mag 20 oil suspention forks. A few years later I bought my 98' GT Xizang with Rock Shox SID WC Ti and full XTR M950 components. Those were the days ;)
   
   BTW: Does anybody remember those white Onza Porcupine downhill tires? ;)
8. Wtf are those suits they wear looks like diving equipment and they do nothing so special everibody can ride on road
9. old school is a sexy ass bike!
10. gt lts or gt i drive 5 ? any sugestions?
11. Does anyone know what Green Pedal is on the New GT
12. I bought this actual GT Lobo from Dave Mackison a couple of years ago. It's still in immaculate condition and rides like a dream. Love this bike so much and will never part with it. It sits proudly in my collection next to my GT Team RTS and GT STS-1...... Happy days.
13. thumbs down cuz my balls itch
14. When it comes to sport, I really think that if fashion precedes functon then the sport is turning into a marketing gimmick rather than a sport.
    Seriously, if you are riding a bike, especially in a race, wear what makes you faster and screw these fashion sissies. If someone is mocking the clothes I wear then I would turn around and say that impressing your style ego isn't really my priority when riding. 
    Maybe you look like a fucking bum in anything less than a Hugo Boss suit. I mean, if we are taking the "appearances" thing so seriously then why not? Where do you draw the line. I am actually defending the body suit. It really doesn't look all that stupid in this context. Clearly it works with DH skiing.
15. @gabigowriel I dont agree ... If youre trying it alone it was maybe boring... I mean it is not really nice to ride alone. Climbing is nice too, but downhill isnt a idiotic activity ... You must have really much skills for it. Its very difficult. Yea, climbing too. ( And Downhill is FCKN expensive -__- ) But i dont really agree with you ... The only bad thing at it is that its really expensive. The rest of it is awesome ^^ 
16. I so wanted one of these old GT's back in the day but i thought these were made of a thing called Thermoplastic not Carbon Fibre
17. the winner is specialized.
18. What's the song around 1:50?
19. We are the first and only GT LTS, STS, RTS and XCR owners club. If you own or are a fan of this iconic mountain bike, then dont hesitate to join up! You do not need to own an LTS era bike to join, and membership is always free!
