Taking a cue from its big brother, the Pro Performer, the 1998 GT Performer has a completely new design and a striking new look. The new curved top tube and refined standing platform gives you more ways than ever to strut your stuff.
Complete with a GT Piston stem, Oryg cable detangler and your choice of 48-hole spoked wheels or new GT 3-spoke mag wheels, the Performer delivers the performance edge that made GT.
