Description

In 1987, Hansjorg Rey bounced off boulders better than any other trials rider in the sport. The bike that earned him German and NORBA national trials championships was the GT Ricochet. Its chromoly frameset and 150mm GT Power Series cranks turn mountains into mole hills.

In 1988, you’ll find the Ricochet under backyard beginners and world-class experts alike. . . only our competition will be left in the balance.
