1997 GT LTS 4

1997 · LTS

We refined and improved our critically acclaimed elastomer-based LTS system to include easier adjustability and even better function. The new, redesigned frame features custom link forgings for a stiffer and more precise feel. You’ll be blown away by the awesome performance of the LTS-4. The LTS-4 also features a Rock Shox Indy C front fork, which perfectly matches the super performance and low maintenance of our elastomer rear shock. Components include the all-new, race-ready 24-speed STX RC drivetrain, the new LX V-Brake system, and a super Mavic wheelset.
