GT TALERA Triple-triangle
My bike was bought for 200 pounds in 1997. since then, every moving component(except front forks) have been replaced to a value of 500 pounds+ not including the frame. At the moment i am running a camel 1.35 rear tyre and hutchison 1.2 slick front tyre. i cycle mainly on roads so slicks are the better option however the wheels will take mountain bike tyres again if needed in winter!! running deore side pull breaks, shimano 8 spoke wheels deore rear mech and shifter. also CRUD'tm guards fitted for mud guards in winter.
