Once and not that long ago prior to GT bikes period, we witnessed "the bicycle scramble" a fun game which allowed pedal cycle riders the same pleasure as motorcycle riders.
In the very early moments, scrambling was done on special road bikes. Lots of deterioration on the bicycle.
As the game developed it became mandatory that there had to be changes and therefore BMX appeared. BMX - or Bicycle Motocross presents the same adventure as spills and the 'engine' type. Generally there must have been a bicycle created to carry the hefty items.
1979:, Gary Turner, a welding engineer, with cycle garage businessman, Richard Long established a company, going by the name GT Bicycles, delved into the manufacture of only BMX bikes. Everything happened since in the early 70s, Gary's son started to become mixed up in the rather new sport of BMX. Being an engineer, Gary had an interest in the plan as well as toughness of the frames and observed them weighty and to be frail. This motivated him to design frames for his son. He made use of his familiarity of the drag racing and altered it to making the piping in the BMX's bicycle design. This served the younger Turner and in a short time Gary's BMX frames were being looked for as a result, he commenced manufacturing other BMX riders frames.
In 1974, Richard Long, who had the bike shop took an interest in Gary's frames' admiration and spoke to him with the view to being a dealer for his frames. In 1979, they set up a alliance as one.
In spite of some hurdles, the business sprouted to turn into one of the world's enormous producers of not only BMX bicycles, but mountain and leisure bikes as well, and as the company expanded so did the types of bikes.
GT bikes can be identifiable by the logo, a GT stamp and the purposely made bikes are not only sure to please BMX fans but individuals who hit the roads, trails and mountains.
Not long ago we observed "the bike scramble" an amusement game where pedal cycle riders were allowed similar fun as motorcycle riders.
In the early days, people scrambled on tailored road bikes. Lots of wear and tear on the machine.
As the sport progressed it was inevitable that there had to be changes and in consequence the birth of BMX. BMX - or Bicycle Motocross gives similar delight just like spills or the 'engine' kind. Generally there had to be a bicycle created to haul the weighty things.
1979:, Gary Turner, a welding engineer, along with cycle garage owner, Richard Long began a company, going by the name GT Bicycles, went into making of only BMX bicycles. All this happened because in early 70s, Gary's son started getting involved in the moderately new race of BMX. As an engineer, Gary took an appeal in the design as well as hardiness of the structures and noticed them to be frail and weighty. This urged him to fabricate his son's frames. He made use of his familiarity of the drag racing industry and adapted it to make the piping in the design of the BMX bicycles. This served the younger Turner and it was not long before Gary's BMX frames were being sought after and therefore, he began manufacturing the frames for other BMX riders.
1974:, the bicycle shop owner Richard Long took an interest in Gary's frames' admiration and spoke to him with the view to becoming a retailer for his products. Thus it was in 79, they established a alliance mutually.
In spite of a number of hindrances, the alliance developed to be among the world's enormous maker of not only BMX bikes, but mountain and leisure bicycles too, and while the establishment expanded so did the array of bicycles.
GT bikes can be discernible by the company logo, a GT stamp and the specially designed bicycles are not only sure to delight BMX devotees but those who take to the roads, the trails and the mountains.
