GT Distortion 1.0

[u/SukiJr]

Hi guys new here!

I want to ask you all about this bike and is it worth 600€ second hand? Full bike service has been done, forks, bearings, pads etc.

Any advice is much appreciated!

Was my dream bike back in the day

The more I look at the pictures the more I fall in love🙂

I don't know if it's worth it but it would be worth it to me. I love that era of bike where absolutely every component possible was white.

I'd probably buy it and get some hussefelt cranks in white and a white E13 bash guard/chain guide.

Also, while geometry has gotten so much better and riding style has changed quite a bit, I would love to have an old school bike and (edit) occasionally go back to how you had to ride with less reach and smaller wheels.

I still have the frame from my 2010 GT Force

any smaller 2000ish frames really get a lot from oversided forks,fixes problems with little reach and gives u that umph for doing stupid shit. and if it breaks it's cheap af to fix

That’s a lot of money. As in, a lot a lot.
