$75.00 | | Purchased At: | frame only from sponsor | | Strengths: | verey good out of the gate. too many whole shots to count.
manuals deep in deep rhythems and doubles, and 15 inch chainstays gives good traction controll and good boost off lips if wanted. lifts over high lips well. corners strong and holds a line better with tires all the way filled. extremely cumffy in the air, verey stable. over all an awsome ride when set up for your size. | | Weaknesses: | the only problem ive ever had was when i ovalized one of my speed series frames head tubes. but that was my fault. | | Similar Products Used: | 1998 cheeta. | | Bike Setup: | 1.75 tires front and back filled all the way. gt 3.pc. crank with AC chain wheel. chain stays set to 15 inch. shimano xtr seat post. gt embroidered seat/spandura. dk bars, GT double butted chro-mo forks, piston stem. | | Bottom Line: | this is still my frame of choice. in my opinion according to your ridding stule. gt bicycles has made the perfect frame. ive ridden all box series frames from 1997"the first year made" to 1999. this frame is a piece of art, and will be the classic muscle frame of bmx. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

1 Year | | Strengths: |
Never had a problem. Strong frame | | Weaknesses: |
GT does not provide weghts for any of their products. This is very annoying. What does my 24 boxster frame weigh? Still dont know. | | Similar Products Used: |
Diamondback, Redline | | Bike Setup: |
GT box speed series 24 cruiser. | | Bottom Line: | I enjoy my GT cruiser. Its a bit on the pricey side of cruisers, but who cares. I am a 33 year old BMX racer and ride alot. I have had no problems with my bike. I like the feel of the aluminum frame. I have contacted GT on a few ocassions, for answers about products. They are unwilling to provide the weight of the frames. This is really stupid. Two chilli peppers for GT's willingness to answer questions, but five for the awesome bike itself. I wanna ultralight boxster now ; ) | | Overall Rating: |

Date Reviewed: February 8, 1999 | | Bottom Line: |
Very light with great acceleration. However the rear whell is a pain in the a$$
to remove and you'll wind up scratching the frame while doing this. All in all, a blast to ride. | | Overall Rating: |
