This year Cycling Sports Group will be launching the new range of 2018 bikes from GT Bicycles at the Cycle Show at the NEC, from September 21st to the 24th.
The new line of mountain bikes includes the World Cup winning GT Fury line, the award-winning Zaskars, the Avalanche and the entry-level aluminium hardtails, the Aggressor and Palomar. Upgrades in spec and frame quality, alongside new retail price points feature across the range. In addition, the GT Zaskar range now features new high-end carbon 29ers.
Hans Rey commented: “The Zaskar is truly an iconic bike. Since 1991 I’ve not only ridden Zaskars to countless victories, but being such a versatile bike, it has literally taken me around the world on amazing adventures.”
The new carbon Zaskars now top out at £2,199, with alloy siblings at lower price points.
A wider range of BMX bikes are also being launched at the show from GT, with new Team Series freestyle bikes from Jason Phelan and Brian Kachinsky, alongside new entry-level price-point bikes with the Performer line and now available in new 16” and 18” wheel sizes.
