2019 Pro Performer 26

Heritage, history, some of the coolest roots in all of BMX – GT has it all. To prove the point, GT have rolled out the new range of 2019 Pro Performer bikes – this here is the 26 inch version of the 1986 Performer, an absolutely legendary model – and this time, you can choose between vivid green, or neon pink (see inspiration for this particular bike, above, on an issue of Freestylin’ from back in the day – if you aped for this bike back then, now’s your chance). Toptube platform, curved downtube, pierced and capped toptube, layback post, 2pc Performer bars, Power Series polished cranks and hubs, GT LP5 tyres in tanwall, does it get ANY better than this? Nope.

UK RRP £699
