Thank's for the head's up! Looking for good chrome though..And those cable guides are horrible!I've had the bike for 25 yrs, so if it sports the GT forks for awhile longer..that's OK! :wink:

Look on the left rear dropout for the serial. If there's also a small symbol that looks like a baseball, it was made in Japan, which is good. If the serial is under the bottom bracket and starts w an F=that means made in Taiwan. Which is less desirable.

Also that bike wouldn't have come w a gyro. It's a race bike, not freestyle.

Thanks! Its on the rear dropout. I might redo the rear brake and lose the front.
Duke: thats how I got it...
