Big homie fab’d that mini-cheese grader!!!! Much Respect.

Thats got to be the best 98 performer ive ever seen, pegs flush with fork awesome work and build

That miniature chain wheel is sick!

Bike looks AMAZING! I'm also digging your video style which made this interesting and fun to watch. Can't wait to see the update and how you resolved the issues you ran into and also more resto's. Keep up the great work!

Great job man! That Performer is looking SWEEEEET!!!! 😃👍

I know Im late.. but .. dayummmmm.. this restomod turned out waaaaay too flippin nice.. love It..

So cool. My friend had this bike. I always wanted one.

Every man thinks HIS own GT performer is the coolest bike on the planet… And they’re all right 🤙🏻 (Small size cheese grater, you brilliant m’f’r you…classy touch)

The dice valve caps were a must for my bike. Since my GT has a little pink in its colorway, my dice are pink.

Dude the process was so cool to see very nice bike!

Dam bro that brought me merriers when I was doing mines in the 90s lol🥰

searchin for 99 performer info I stumbled upon your vid great work and well put together video.

Incredible project! Stunning

Amazing! Absolutely love the Retro look on the early/ mid school frame! This frame caught my eye about a week ago and your vid just sealed the deal, IM GONNA FIND ONE! Thanks for sharing!

Awesome resto with some modern touches, looks great thanks for sharing.

Absolutely Beautiful work!!

Coolest new bike with old school vibe iv seen yet. Great job!

*Wow amazing job. Looks brand new.*

We need more bikes my friend

I want a oldschool Bmx so bad, awesome rebuild 💯👍😎

Wow man. 🏆 Awesome transformation. I STILL have my '98 Performer in the original Black Rainbow. Straight laced with whitewalls and chrome and white accents. I been through a lot but never let me bike go. It stays inside my house. I always thought of doing a retro reStyle to it. Bravo

That thing is sick! Love it!

Phenomenal job

Love it mate!! Absolutely gorgeous!!! I now know what to do with my 1998 vertigo build,and definitely want to see more builds from you!

Fantasy job! Your bike came out beautiful

Hell Yeah ! 🤘🏼 looking good 😍 You got all the tools !

so sick, gives me lots of inspiration on what I want to do with my gt performer. ive had since 4th grade

Sick man looks awesome 😎 brother

Nice and clean

You improved the looks and value by miles...well done!!

8:50 that is indeed close xd

The only thing I would change is the black rubber brake pads. They will leave a black streak on the rims. You got to find the white rubber ones.

SWEET!

Excelente trabalho.

badass

Great job man! That Playboy blue looks fresh! Definitely more videos of builds!

Absolutely awesome job deserves more views

Ive Wondered if you could sand blast chrome. Thats awesome. So beautiful ❤️❤️❤️

Back to the roots with this midd school bike, awesome job man, respect ✊

That is super slick!

Dude man awesome pro performer, and yes please more bike restos 😊

This week I've been desiring to have one of my childhood bikes. This bike looks incredible!

Sweet build - It's almost too pretty to ride now!

SkyWay always had the best lookin mags

Super well done!

When I was in the 6th or 7th grade my Pops bought me the most expensive freestyle bike our local shop had. It was a Haro Master that was absolutely SICK! He said the owner asked how old I was, and replied, “This is too much bike, and far too expensive for a kid his age”. Pops said, I think that’s a decision I need to make Sir, I want that bike. If you won’t sell it to me, I’ll go elsewhere. He sold him the bike, and I remember everyone around was insanely jealous over that bike. I rode it for a few years and put it in our shop, so I could keep it and one day do something like this. Well, Unfortunately it was stolen, and we never found it… It was around a 91-92 model I believe. I would LOVE to still have that bike, and pay you to restore it! You did a Helluva Job Sir, and Earned my Sub! Thanks for bringing us along. #Nostalgia 💯

Nice build the bike looks GT asf!!!!

That's Dope Bro

AWESOME!

Hey man I was on he trip with that class. That came and thanks for that but also love ur vids bro and one last thing Jesus ur setup. Is godly

Needs white brake levers, white chain, and white/clear brake pads.. looks so nice awesome job

I've had the Odyssey Springfield brakes and the concept of not having to adjust them is pretty cool. A few weeks ago I decided after a couple of years to change them for the Odyssey Evo 2.5 and it has been a giant change in terms of being able to choose the hardness of the braking. If you can choose to buy the Evo you will not be disappointed, if it is for exhibition and not used aggressively, the Springfield will be perfect for you.

gorgeous !!!

Amazing bro

Great build brother! I am building up a similar tribute Diamond Back for a 84 Viper look using a Mid-School 2000 Viper. Great video! Cheers!

very nicely done.

I have the same 98 catalog i found on ebay and used it to restore a 24” pro series. I made it just like the pic in the catalog. Your GT came out mint!!

AWESOME 👌

Dope video

the special sadle Dominator 👍👍👍

Killed it💯💯

My dream bike!

Nice one! I have a lime green 98 gt performer with the mag wheels. Can just get a small glimpse of it in your catalogue

Dope!

súper súper exelente como quisiera conseguir una GT como la tuya 😢 felicitaciones 🚲 saludos desde Bogotá Colombia 🇨🇴

just ordered parts to do the same. recreate my oll bmx. couldn t find the exact brand it was. the bike shop near by had done a beautiful custom job, close to a raleigh super burner mk1 , so gold and black is the theme. looking forward to have fun by doing it, great video

Saludos amigo la neta se ve rajamadres,y con esas llantas azules y remate en rojo ,WOW👍👋🇲🇽

Lovely bike, my Redline prostyler ended up the same colour but with black skyways and white tyres

The Original GT Mallet Stem would have been a nicer touch. It has the logo engraved and is a much better stem that the one in the video. As well as the 4 piece handlebar.

Cool video

You have all machine 👍👍

Nicely

I would love to have one of those 25t Cheesegrater sprockets

Love it I would love to see you do a modern take on an 87 dyno pro compe

It looks incredible, you have access to some pretty advanced equipment in this machine shop or whatever here…I mean, I’m a retired professional motocross racer & as a _grown up_ I’m an MIT Educated Electrical Engineer & I have access to barely any of this stuff…if it were me, I’d move the 990 mounts to under the seat stays, I mean, if you’re not into that because you think it could affect the 1980s throwback look, it’s got a threadless 1-1/8” fork, and a 1980s GT Pro Performer’d have a 1” Threaded fork with GT Mallet stem, plus 990 brakes at all (?) I can’t back that up for sure, I’m around the same age as you are _(I was in 7th Grade from Fall 1997-Summer 1998)_ I still have my 1996 Dyno Air (Dyno’s embodiment of the GT Performer), and that didn’t have 990’s on it at all, and my buddy from up the street had a same year GT Performer, and that didn’t have 990’s either, so I always thought of 990’s to be newer technology or something, but I don’t know if they for sure weren’t around in the 1980s

Looks great Joey! 😊 Could you make some kind of polymer chain guide to keep the chain off the brakes, like a timing chain guide?

Those look like Day Smith Hoffman pegs.

yo. thing is dope as fuck. excellent work

Absolute nutcase for not wanting to keep the og paint literally any other color & I’d be ok with a repaint

Black brake pads on the white Tuffs is making me cry.

😍😍😍

Rad!

Looks awesome, great work. Hope you get the sprocket figured out soon enough I wonder if a 28 or 20 tooth would work? I’m running a 28-9 on my bike so it might take it up a little bit from not hitting the brake ?

😎👌

Awesome! But... Black brake pads on white Skyway's is a no no.

Wow

Awesome build and turned out great!!! I see you're using the "Bike Have" work stand. I'm in the market for my first bike stand and was wondering how you like it and would you buy it again? Thank you!

I have a GT PRO performer still.

👍❤💪

What BB are you using for that crank set 19mm spindle ?

I recently got a ( 1997 GT Performer ) I noticed the GT logo stamp on the rear of the frame behind the seat post Is different than what I remember. The G is on top of the T just like the bike frame in this video. When and in what bikes did GT change the logo stamp on the back of the frame ?

Nice build. Were you able to get the Panaracer tires to sit evenly on the mag wheels. Reason I ask is I have a Skyway bmx with the Tuff wheels and cannot seem to get the tires to mount evenly around. Tried soapy water, massaging the tire at low psi, but there is still a slight wobble. Nice tires but they dont seem to go work too wheel with mag wheels due to lack of a clincher/lip.

Rad.

That bike is sick! Do the mag wheels bend easily? I don’t do tricks or anything. Just ride 1 hour a day for exercise ✌🏼

How much for one of those replica cheese grater sprockets in 28 tooth? Would love to put that on my 2021 Pro Performer.

Awesome restoration but I don’t see the link to eBay for the decals I’ve been looking all over for decals for my GT please help thanks

About the brake issue: would it be possible to Relocate the brake mounts to the underside of the seat stay tubes? I know you'd have to re-powder, but worth it to remedy the rubbing issue? AND KEEP THAT SICK 'ONE OFF' CHEESE GRADER SPROCKET?!?!

Nice dude..... But how far can you wheelie it?

What color blue did you use? RAL 5012?

Brother great job other then the rusty stem bolts ,for a few dollars get new ones or atleast remove the rust.
