From our Southern California beginnings in 1972 to today, we continue to remain true to our BMX and mountain bike heritage. GT mixes performance with serious fun to deliver good times everywhere our bikes are ridden. Because after all, Fun is Serious Business.
GT Bicycles inspires a passion for riding by celebrating the brand’s roots in dirt and street culture. Since building GTs first BMX bike in 1972, GT has remained true to sharing the stoke on two wheels which the brand was founded on because, after all, you can’t have Good Times without ‘GT’!
BMX frames of the era just weren’t durable enough. At least not according to Gary Turner. And so, using skills acquired from welding drag racing cars, he created the first GT frame in 1972 for his kid to use on the BMX SoCal race circuit. The frame was a hit.
GT Bicycles was born with a simple vision: to help riders push the envelope of what’s possible on two wheels by creating the most reliable, innovative frames in the business. It was a vision immediately proven in the BMX community, with an overnight cult following on the BMX race circuit.
GT bikes became synonymous with durability and winning, bringing home more BMX race wins and clout than any other bike brand of the era. GT success was not solely found at the track, however, as riders like Bob Morales, Dave Voelker, Josh White, Eddie Fiola, Martin Aparijo, and Dino Deluca began to invent and perfect tricks that progressed the sport on the ground and in the air. As Freestyle evolved so did the bikes, like the iconic Pro Performer.
As BMX freestyle reached the peak of mainstream popularity, GT expanded into the emerging sport of mountain biking. Hans Rey, Juli Furtado, Nicolas Vouilloz, Rishi Grewal and Gerhard Zadrobilek validated GT’s approach with multiple world cup titles and national championships aboard bikes featuring GT’s iconic Triple Triangle®. This nontraditional frame design became a symbol for GT and was recognized as the industry’s most advanced frame design.
Committed to developing the best bikes on the mountain, GT pioneered the development of full-suspension mountain bikes. With frame designs like the RTS and LTS leading a new wave of technological advancements in the industry.
GT Bicycles inspires a passion for riding by celebrating the brand’s roots in dirt and street culture. Since building GTs first BMX bike in 1972, GT has remained true to sharing the stoke on two wheels which the brand was founded on because, after all, you can’t have Good Times without ‘GT’!"

I'm 42 and I grew up an absolute bmx freak! I was always waaay more into the dirt track/racing/backwoods trail style ... but seeing that I've been GT BMX to-the-end, Eddie Fiola and the gt freestyle crew were, are, absolute legends. A great treat to witness live, from day 1

Great time to grow up. I was 12 in 1985 and GT Bikes were the coolest with the pastel colors, white mags, handle bars and seat posts. I never learned all of these flatland tricks but it sure was fun back then riding and trying to learn them.

dham629 yup, I'm more of a dirt track fan even to this day. I'm tryna find either a yellow, or the baby blue (er, should I call it SKY blue haha) GT PRO SERIES. The gt colors were off the charts back i our day. In 1985, I was 10 yrs old, a GT bmx freak, a gi Joe and transformers maniac, and I was outside all day ripping around my forest 'hood, and wow into town, in pennsylvania/jersey, cruisin' the streets on my GT MACH ONE, wit my bro I grew up with , him on his Mongoose 'Californian'. If only I still saw that dude around, and of only we still had those old skool bikes! Mine was stolen in like 1990 grrr. I'm eyeing up a pro series on eBay as we speak. Anyone out there tryna sell a 1980's GT bmx, hit me up!

omg, this brings back ol memories...my 1st bmx video back in 85.. which is sooo rare those days.. we use to make copies after copies on vhs ...hahaha...
I'm 39 and this was my dream as a kid, ridin Team GT with Martin Aparijio, Josh White and my man Eddie Fiola. oh the 80s, how I miss them so.d:^P
When the old stuff was the new stuff.
Freestyle has advance so much because of the legends.🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Old school free styling.
Pure joy, and happy life.
I did watch this video everyday. It was as close to a GT as I could ever get!! ha. Had it on VHS, wore my VCR out with it.
Praise bmx for everything
I'm 40 years old and I still have my 1986 redline RL20a freestyler from my flatland years. The funny thing is that I probably still could do all these tricks.

Haha..brings back my sweet 80's memories.. back then we worship Eddie Fiola, Martin Aparijo, Richie Anderson and others.. watching RAD movie every weeks. Falling in love with Lori Loughlin n Nicole Kidman in BMX Bandits. BMX goes more extreme these days but 80's started it all.. just like Cannibal Corpse with their extreme music but Slayer is still the undisputed king of metal.

GT was bad ass. Still is
Gustavo that's a Vanderoll invented by Dave Vanderpeck of Curb Dogs early freestyle pioneer
I used to fuck myself up doing this shit! The hospital bills between this and learning how to breakdance! So many stitches!! Draining the knees and fat lips......Never again!
Doing a handstand on a skateboard is impressive but doing it almost horizontally on a bike is hunder times more impressive.

whats that move called when they hop on their front tire
Best time to grow up. Always had something to do and some where you wanted to be. Always looking to imitate a hero we saw growing up. If it was from a professional BMX rider, skater, weight lifter who did that and movies, Kung Fu, boxer in Philly, a jet fighter or all star athlete in highschool, we had lots to pick from and try to be. Know days, what or who, guy in you tube making some dumbass videos, playing Gary's mod, where did all the fun and hereos go? Thank God I was fortunate enough to have been a part of the best generation there was.
I got a Dyno Compe 20 coming from Ebay
saw a gut lever
Next time I run into the Chairman, I'm going to bring up this video!
3:13 does anyone know what this is called i know a friend who rides on his frame like that but he calls it surfing but thats something else
Bmx way more technical now but it was more enjoyable to watch back then. Anybody know the name of this song or who the hot blonde is in the video?😅
