    I have just acquired a red 1992 GT Pantera AL, my favourite colour for this bike in the same size as what I had back in 1993, it felt like winning a lottery. It does need a little work but I am happy to have found one again. It came up in my FB Marketplace feed on my Birthday last Monday, got in touch with the seller and arranged for it to be delivered.!

    I can't believe how some people criticize your work, I guess they are new on your channel or they just like spread negative vibes around there, I would recommend them to look your other builds, such as your beautiful Scott, or just go to watch different channels like oldshovel’s one if they want a full paint work. Anyway, I love GT bikes from all ages and that Pantera looks sweeet! Thanks for reviving it and please keep with your amazing content! Cheers!

    Those bars were off a 94/95 Univega. Concept was their own brand. The Sugino cranks were also circa 94 and found as oe on KHS and Jamis and others.

    I did own a red version of this bike, medium frame, kitted out with Tioga slick tyres for commuting, cut down the handlebars to fit through a gate near work back in 1992/1993 then unfortunately the bike got stolen! I then built up a GT Zaskar with the same Pace RC 35 forks!

    I always loved the Pantera AL. I have the same 1992 GT Pantera AL (silver version) in my collection. Mine comes with an 20" frame. The frame was actually a bit to large for me, but I bought it even though because of the near mint condition of the frame and fork.

    Hi,
    I have received an old "randoneur" style bike which looks to be around 1960ties, it has BREV CAMPAGNOLO drop outs on the (chromed) fork and on the frame. Could I ask for some help identifying what it is? How to make contact?

  • @MrThearijal

      The crank puller should be a tool grade steel no? The crank, aluminium. It’s fine. I’ve removed cranksets since. Sacrifice is a bit dramatic 😂
