Description

Baked to perfection

Brian Kachinsky’s bikes were the inspiration for the design of the GT BK. Not only is the ride supremely smooth, with chromoly tubing to provide the ultimate in durability and response, but it’s got the looks to match his signature laid-back style. For those who prefer grinding on the right, there are also two models in the lineup that offer a left hand drive.
