New Issue Gt Performer 26inch

So kids, its here....available maybe, but GT is showing it on there website as a bike they're producing

2012 GT Performer 26"



Relive your days of BMX on a bike that wont make you feel like a bear riding a tricycle.....I have a 26"BMX bike in my stable and love it. they are snappy handling and make tired trails feel fun again.
This is the second time around for GT with the 26" Performer, here's an image of the 80's version of this fun factory:

vintage GT 26" found on vintagebmx.com

truthfully the older version has better parts than its newer counter part.....of course to have the equivalent parts the new performer would cost thousands of dollars, and its a harder sell for what would not be a daily rider. of course there are other companies make super high end versions of the 26" BMX
