I just acquired a 91 GT vertigo bashguard HOT LAVA would like to sell it it 95% original has different seat and rear tire from my knowledge any interest
Very clean build, the only thing I would change about it is to use Haro Sata rims to match the polished frame,black dice on the valve stems, and finally some black w/ aluminum bear claw pedals.
When I was a kid I cut down the top part of the drainpipe seatposts so I could run my seat lower and still have the look, also i ran that sprocket in 36t on my Mirra 540
One thing I made sure I added to my GT was the pink dice valve caps. Once I order a sick 4 piece handlebar this Tuesday, I'm gonna find some dope hand grips and bar ends to make them pop.
I had an 89/90 vertigo, I loved it, I always went with shit no one else had, even though it was the same thing as a performer, didn't matter to me I was changing up the parts anyway
I just picked up a 1990 Vertigo completely OG, and a 89 performer everything but the wheels. I was wondering where to pick up them 48s? And do they have knock off cranks like these? I’m not too worried about original on a few of the bike I’m building any insight on places to get a lot of these knock off parts would be cool 😎
So what’s the big differences in the gt vertigo vs the performers? When I was younger I didn’t look at anything if it wasn’t a performer but have grown to appreciate both. I know the performer is more desirable but frame material, features and build
Thank uu so so so much😭iv been trying to figure out how to change my crank arms from the old ones to the 3 pieces arm set 👌thankz alot wow every day I learn something new from uu guys thankz alot 😢❤️
A few Q’s: 1.) Do you have a video showing the tools you use to build a bike like this? 2.) What too are you using to install the headset (it has blue rubber handles.) 3.) What solution did you use to soak the bile. I have a chrome 93 Vertigo. And want to clean it up. Thanks.
I’ve got one of these coming in the mail that I’ll be working on as a project. What are the instructions for restoring chrome like you did in the beginning?
I did get my eldest son a Mirraco b4 he passed that is very kool and just recently got my youngest son a lil hutch I think a 16" and I have a beautiful Mongoose I believe 9os I know it's a mongoose Expert but i don't know what to do from here so u have any ideas
THIS CHANNEL KICKS ASS, yo local L.A dude here, what you know about Dennison Schwinn Cyclery on whittier blvd. Classic, binge watching these ill vids. I have a babied all chrome 2000 GT pro performer, and an super super clean green jay miron hydramatic. my babies.
What consisted of the "bath" you soaked the frame and forks in? I have a 1996 Vertigo I'm getting ready to rebuild and would like to soak mine as you did yours.
Does anyone know if Joytech high flange hubs are any good? I can't seem to find anything other than the GT Super/Race Lace hub set for sale. I only need a high flange front hub because my rear will be an Odyssey V2. Having an extra hub that I won't ever use is a waste of money and space. Adding a high flange front hub to my bike is a must. The large flanged hub will compliment the hell out of a chrome Hazard Lite rim's design and large decal 😎👍! If anyone has knowledge of the Joytech hub, your reply would be appreciated.
Question. My Brand new Performer has this Funky film Cloud like shit on a tiny part of the Bike. Would that Polish you used on the bike in this Video work on what I described?
I think you may be talking about the same transparent light brown film I have in my tripple tree/seat post clamp area. It's a very minor issue, but I'd love to know what that's about. I have the 2018 Pro P.
You possibly can find someone who's selling one online. You may find that these retro bikes can sometimes go for over a grand. Some sellers will have them fully restored to the same exact bike you took home from your local bike shop as a kid.

My brother fixed up this bike and gave it to me on my birthday when I was delivering papers. What a bro
Gotta love the early 90’s GT’s.
The 90s 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

If it wasn't for this built I would have never known my GT bike was a Vertigo. I thank you, and more GT bike builds please!
GTs r hands down the best bikes ever created
Bling!!! I had a all white 91 GT performer i restored back in 2009. Currently have my dream GT, 87 Pro Freestyle Tour Team in dayglo yellow.
Love those rear stands that mount to the frame and rear axle!! Love gt bikes!!
I love it I've had a few man it brings back memories of the good ol days b4 having 4 kids lol
Starting a rebuild on a 93 Vertigo - same frame design, so this is a huge help!
how did it turn out?
i realize I'm pretty randomly asking but do anyone know a good place to watch new series online?
@Kristopher Joaquin Lately I have been using FlixZone. Just google for it =)
@Willie Zayn yup, I have been using FlixZone for since april myself =)
@Willie Zayn thanks, signed up and it seems like a nice service =) Appreciate it !!
Wow,just wow.It's so clean.And when you put that dirty old seat on it just says,"I'm a rebel".You rock,BMX GOD!!
I’m restoring my 1991 GT Vertigo from when I was a kid. Almost love riding it now more than when I was a kid.
Dope! I had the same 1991 GT Vertigo but in white with black splash paint and a GT Bash Guard at the bottom!
Man this makes me want to restore my 96 vertigo. Been sitting in the garage for 15years
Robinson sst dyno vfr take me back to my childhood like nothing else.
those handlebars bring back memories
Takes me back to my early days when i had 1 and rode it all the time
I had that GT back 1996 in DomRep all Chrome
It's compulsory to wear some t-shirt from the 90s when doing a 90s build. I'm glad you know the rules.
Very clean build, the only thing I would change about it is to use Haro Sata rims to match the polished frame,black dice on the valve stems, and finally some black w/ aluminum bear claw pedals.
I have to sacrifice the stickers on my 94 gt Dyno vfr for the paint job luckily the stickers on the chrome parts will be preserved
When I was a kid I cut down the top part of the drainpipe seatposts so I could run my seat lower and still have the look, also i ran that sprocket in 36t on my Mirra 540
A true 1991er good job😀
One thing I made sure I added to my GT was the pink dice valve caps. Once I order a sick 4 piece handlebar this Tuesday, I'm gonna find some dope hand grips and bar ends to make them pop.
I was wondering how you got pegs on those forks with such little room. Genius! I just need a larger axle
This is dope. I have a 93 vertigo I’m rebuilding.
I had an 89/90 vertigo, I loved it, I always went with shit no one else had, even though it was the same thing as a performer, didn't matter to me I was changing up the parts anyway
That's nice, GT so cool.👍
Nice " Call me " remix
Not really into old school bmx biked but I would ride that any day 😍

Gen 01 Lee definitely interested in the answer about the tires also.... thanks!
This bike is dope

I’m trying to cheap out and make a performer out of a vertigo if anyone can pick up what I’m getting at lol.
That Sprocket is mean 🔥

Hey hit me up on Instagram
Been watching a bunch of these builds for the past couple of days. I love what you're doing, and you have definitely earned my subscription.
I know I agree they're doing a great job these GT performers were the best rides on a BMX bike did you ever have the honor of owning a GT Performer
I’ve got one of these coming in the mail that I’ll be working on as a project. What are the instructions for restoring chrome like you did in the beginning?

What consisted of the "bath" you soaked the frame and forks in? I have a 1996 Vertigo I'm getting ready to rebuild and would like to soak mine as you did yours.
Looked like clr
Great video. To do the calcium bath , is it just the power mixed with water ?
Beatiful
I have watched this video like 100 times nice gt. I see that glue on the seat. You must have ripped the padding off the gt seat
Qual produto você deixa o quadro dentro pra tirar a ferrugem
It looks Gorgeous tho 👌😍❤️
I have that bike !
I had a gt I think it was a 1992. It had thin tires with presta tube.
Nice video footage, dude !!!

Beautiful bike, but that frame deserves genuine GT parts…I’d say you know better than that because I love your work BUT it’s an old video 🤙🏻
I have a 1991 gt vertigo, the black with the red splatter paint
Do you guys sell any of these GT or Haro's you build?
Where do you order the parts from?
Where do you get the knock off Joytech wheels?
Like if you liked the 90’s
Question. My Brand new Performer has this Funky film Cloud like shit on a tiny part of the Bike. Would that Polish you used on the bike in this Video work on what I described?

Where can I find out what year my GT Dyno is? KG (I OR 1) H8758
Hola desde México se puede comprar y mandarlo a México saludos
Where do order the parts from
there’s a lot of american bmx brands made in china without boxes
What's all the crap on the seat?
Chidota
I have a old GT vertigo how do I find out what year it is. I’ve had it since the early 90’s.
go to www.bmxmuseum.com and ask there. They can tell from the serial number of your frame
Pegs and standers? Kinda redundant wouldn't you say
How do I buy one of these if I wanted to ?

I'm not too fond of braless bikes, but I could slap some very long handgrips on that bad boy and leave it like that😏!
Its Rad.
Those bars are pegs are FUGLY. Ruins the bike. Everything else is dope.
