Own a piece of mountain bike history with this newly-restored mid-80’s GT Backwoods cro-moly mountain bike.
This is a pre-Triple Triangle GT with carryover bmx heritage parts like the spring-loaded Epoch headset (pictured).
Mostly original except for new brake and shifter cables/housings, new grips and newer cruiser tires.
Recently serviced at a local bike shop.
It has its share of blemishes and scars from its long life including rust spots (treated with rust converter) and paint chips but it’s a solid, well-built cruiser that rides really well. Surprisingly light too for old steel.
Size 19 / medium
26” wheels
18 speed (3x6 drivetrain)
