Description

The 1992 GT Cirque is a chromoly crossover and dual-purpose road bike built around GT’s Triple Triangle frame design, constructed with Tange double-butted chromoly tubing and reinforced at the head tube and forged dropouts. The GT unicrown chromoly fork features adjustable offset dropouts with two eyelets, accommodating a range of setups.

Drivetrain duties fall to Shimano 500CX RapidFire STI shifters paired with 500CX derailleurs and a Shimano 400LX crankset running 50/40/30T chainrings. Araya PX-45 700C alloy rims laced to 32 holes carry 700x38C dual-purpose tires, while a mixed brake setup — front cantilever and rear U-brake — reflects the bike’s intended versatility across road and light off-road terrain.
