Description

The 1994 GT Bravado LE is a chromoly mountain bike built around GT’s Triple Triangle frame design, constructed from a combination of Tange Prestige Concept and True Temper GTX III double-butted heat-treated tubing. The fork pairs a GT “Bologna Lite” chromoly unit featuring triple-butted 27mm tapered blades with a Rock Shox MAG21 suspension option and a 1-1/8″ oversize steer tube.

Drivetrain duties fall to a full Shimano Deore XT groupset, including 24-speed Rapid-Fire Plus shifting, a 42/32/22 HyperDrive-C crankset, and XT cantilever brakes. Mavic M230 silver-anodized rims wrapped in Panaracer Kevlar-bead tires and a Vetta TT saddle with magnesium rails round out a spec sheet aimed at serious trail riding.
