Show

1998 GT Show. Lights, camera, action! It's time for the Show. Designed for the highest level of pro competition, the Show spares no expense in creating the ultimate flatland machine. Taking flatland back to the drawing board, GT designed the Show frame to incorporate a lower top tube, tighter rear triangle, built-in seatpost clamp and lower cable stops. The 100% 6061 aluminum frame features rear Pac-Man dropouts, a Super Thick CNC-cut 1-1/8" head tube and hand-crafted in-the-U.S.A. construction. This frame is lighter and offers more clearance and scuffing room than any flatland design ever. Ground-specific components including GT aluminum 165 mm cranks, GT CNC-cut 34-tooth sprocket (not shown), ACS 100 p.s.i. tires, Taska aluminum free coaster hub and GT Super nylon platform pedals with CrMo axles adorn the Show from top to bottom. With flatland riders demanding uncompromising quality, pro level equipment is mandatory. The Show is your ticket into the spotlight.

Like the head tube, the bottom bracket of the Show is 100 percent CNCd. The knurled surface adds traction for tricks when the bike is upside down, while the gusset adds strength to this critical area of the bike. The CNCd seatpost clamp is actually welded to the seat tube inside the top tube. Also take note of the CNCd brake bridge and unique bottom bracket area. The head tube of the Show frame starts as a billet chunk of solid aluminum, is put in the CNC machine and comes out as a work of art. The integrated cable stops are cut during the CNC process, not welded on. Towards the rear of the dropouts, the aluminum Pac Man dropouts get a slightly beefier look. Just like the steel versions, these dropouts will eliminate bent axles.
