SOLD 1990 GT Outpost

I let my heart rule my head and bought this 1990 GT outpost with plans to fit a 1x 'ring, some Billy Bonkers tyres along with coloured cables and a Wald basket to make it a nice fun commuter, unfortunately, it's way too small for me.

Measurements are...

13" C to C ST
17" C to T ST
22" Eff TT

It's pretty unusual for a GT of this era, and I have not been able to find any information on the colourway or the frame design. As it's so small it negates the trademark triple triangle, has a seat tube that extends several inches above the top tube and is braced by a tube at the front and a plate gusset at the rear. The rear brake is a chainstay mounted U Brake. Groupset is 200GS, everything works perfectly. it is still fitted with the colour-coded high-rise GT branded quill stem. I have checked and the seatpost, BB and stem are all free and easily removable.

Bad bits - its got some chips and scratches, though it is 34 years old! Foam grips are hideous and spin on the 'bars, saddle has been stripped and fitted with a gel cover, seatpost seems to be undersized, although there is no damage/cracking to the slot at the back of the seat tube.

I am based in Norwich, but am happy to ship anywhere in the UK, I may need a day or two to find a box to pack and ship it in.

I'm asking for £150 including shipping, but am happy to listen to near offers.

Hey @RunRabbitRun,

Got a friend that might be interested in this. She’s 5’3”, I’m not familiar with mountain bike geometries but looks like it might fit her…? What height range would you say it suits?

Would need to be posted to London most likely if that works for you?

Hey. We think it'll fit, according to online size guides. My wife is 5'10 and she looks like she's stood next to a borrowers bike!

Posting is no problem.

Cool, cheers.
Just double checking she’s keen

No probs!

Hey, sorry for the slow reply. I’ve heard back from Emily, a family friend is giving her a bike.

GLWS!
