my brand-"new" GT Sanction 2.0 (2012.., actually 2015)
Parts
General Info
I have purchased it in September last year, from a bike-shop's unsold stock, paying for it around 1400 USD. I have ride it all autumn(until November) and then, in January, decided to strip it to the bare metal and build it again with brand new parts thinking that, "if it rides that good with the average/medium quality and performance parts, then it should be pretty good with "high"-performance parts.
easier said then done:
I have sold to a friend all the parts from it, got around 500 USD for them and then, started a long process of buying new parts. I'm still working my way to the suspension settings but the bike feels almost perfect. I should say that a brand new shock with piggy-back is in order but, I'm waiting for the off-season sales.
It took 7 months but, now my little red beast is ready to blast every trail I can offer to it! :D
