===Origins===
===Origins 1972-1979===
GT bicycles began in 1972 when professional drag racer and experienced welder Gary Turner makes a frame for his son in his [[Fullerton, California]] garage to race at the BMX track. His frames were made from 4130 chromoly tubing, the same tubing used in building chassis for dragsters which is stronger and lighter than regular carbon steel. Gary’s son’s bike gets noticed at the BMX track and Gary starts making frames for other kids.
GT was co-founded in 1979 by bike shop owner Richard Long along with welding engineer and custom bike maker Gary Turner, in Turner's [[Fullerton, California]] garage &mdash; at first manufacturing for the youth motocross sport, BMX bicycle racing.<ref name="long01">{{cite web

Things happen fast and soon Richard and Gary invested in a shop dedicated to making top quality Cro-moly BMX frames in [[Santa Ana, California]]. In 1979 they incorporated into GT Bicycles, Inc. GT standing for the initials of its founder, Gary Turner. Richard sold his bike shop and began selling frames as fast as possible to bicycle distributors across the USA and into Europe. Richard heads the business and marketing aspects of the company while Gary is the engineer and production head.

===GT Bicycles Inc.===

In 1980 GT releases it first bike the “GT Pro” and begins to sponsor BMX racers such as Lee Medlin and Denny Davidow. GT’s first magazine ad appears in Bicycle Motocross Action (BMX Action) in the January 1980 issue.

For the 1981 season GT releases the Junior, Expert, 24, 26 and Pro models. The models stay this way until 1984 when they introduce their first freestyle bike the Pro Performer. Designed by Bob Morales and Eddie Fiola the Pro Performer is the only other dedicated freestyle bike besides the Haro. The unique bent down tube was a design and marketing game changer as no other bike looked like and became a trademark design for GT.


In 1985 GT bought BMX accessories and apparel company [[DYNO]]. [[Bob Morales]] said "GT Bicycles made an offer to buy Dyno. I accepted their offer because Dyno was severely undercapitalized and in need of investment. I negotiated a contract with GT to design bicycle frames and components and to consult on a marketing strategy for them." Morales developed a line of DYNO frames and bicycles for GT. DYNO also produced a line of clothing apparel and shoes under the DYNO brand.

Under the new agreement, all GT team athletes will use Nike shoes and after-race apparel. This new sponsorship agreement represented an expansion of Nike's current sponsorship as the official shoe of the GT mountain bike team by the then CEO Michael Haynes. GT Bicycles had the first and the only mountain bike and BMX teams that are sponsored by Nike. GT had a total of 57 athletes on various teams in 1997, including nine mountain bike racers, 32 BMX racers and 16 freestyle/GT Bicycle Air Show performers.{{citation needed|date=March 2018}} A week before GT's debut at the 1996 Summer Olympic, GT co-founder Richard Long was killed in a motorcycle accident on his [[Honda Valkyrie]] en route to a national championship series race for the National Off-Road Bicycle Association at [[Big Bear Lake, California|Big Bear Lake]] in the San Bernardino mountains.<ref name="longnyt"/> At the time of Long's death, GT maintained an office at the factory in Santa Ana as well as a factory in Huntington Beach<ref name="long01"/> &mdash; and manufactured 600,000 bicycles annually under the GT, Powerlite, Robinson and Dyno brands, distributed bikes, parts and accessories via its Riteway network and had annual revenues of $150 million.<ref name="longnyt"/> Less than two years after Long's death, in 1998, Bain Capital sold GT to another investment group, Questor Partners, which at the time also owned Schwinn, for $175million. Questor would file for bankruptcy on June 27, 2001, five years to the day that Richard Long had died. ==Teams== {{more citations needed|date=September 2014}} As well as the manufacturing of bicycles, GT Bikes sponsored several teams<ref>[http://www.gtbicycles.com/gbr/eng/riders GT Bikes Team home page]</ref> competing in [[BMX]], [[Mountain biking|mountain]] and [[Road bicycle racing|road]] competitions. ===GT Factory BMX Racing Team=== There are six riders on the BMX Race Team: [[Riley O'Neall|Riley O'Neil]], [[Luke Madill]], [[Joey Bradford]], [[Eric Rupe]] and [[Arielle Martin|Arielle Martin (Verhaaren)]], which compete in competitions held globally. ===GT BMX Freestyle Team (GT Air Show)=== BMX Freestyle and GT BMX have a well documented history on video and in magazine coverage from publications like Freestylin/Go, BMX Plus, and Ride which all fostered young talent like Eddie Fiola, Spike Jonze, Eddie Roman, and Mark Eaton and helped an entire generation of riders define themselves and their sport. From the mid-eighties onward, Team GT's Pro Freestyle riders were some of the biggest and most recognizable names in BMX. The GT BMX brand and team riders appear in the 'HellTrack' starting lineup scene in the BMX cult-classic film Rad. Famous names from the ranks of Teams past include X-Games Champions Dave Mirra, Jay Miron, Jamie Bestwick, Eddie Fiola, aka King of the Skateparks, Brian Scura 'Rad Dad' inventor of the Gyro, aka SST Oryg, Trevor Meyer, Joey (Phenom) Phee, Martin 'the Chairman' Aparijo, Josh White, Dino DeLuca, Dave Voelker, Brett Hernandez, Kevin Jones, Mark Eaton, Gary Pollak, Kevin the 'Gute' Gutierrez, Ruben Castillo, Robert Castillo, Jason Geoffery, Bill Neuman, Goro Tamai, Krys Dauchy, and Adam Jung. Along with Team Haro, Team GT helped shape the future of BMX Freestyle and helped pioneer a sport once deemed nothing more than a fad. GT produced some of the first Freestyle specific bikes in their early Performer and World Tour models. Later highly successful models were the Pro Freestyle Tour, which saw the first use of mountain bike style brake mounts for use of Dia-Compe 990, Dyno Pro Compe - one of the most ridden flatland frames of the early Nineties. GT was also there for the birth of street riding in the late Eighties with the GT Aggressor (Designed in California, but frames made in Taiwan) and Dyno Slammer bashguard models. GT also designed and sold the first flatland specific bike in the USA: the GT Show. GT Bike's current Freestyle Team includes the riders: Dave Dillewaard, Rob Wise, Eric Bahlman, Justin Coble, Bobby Kanode, Calvin Krey, and Brian Kachinsky. ===Mountain Team=== Eight riders in the Mountain Team, compete in global competitions including [[Downhill cycling|downhill]], [[four-cross]], [[Mountain bike trials|trials]], [[freeride]] and [[dirt jumping]]. The riders in the team are: Marc Beaumont, [[Hans Rey]], [[Eric Carter]], Roger Rinderknecht, Kevin Aiello, and Tyler McCaul. In 2012, GT added Kyle Strait, Dan Atherton, Gee Atherton, and Rachel Atherton to the team. [[Hans Rey]] has been sponsored by GT since 1987. ===Road Team=== GT Bikes briefly served as team sponsors and bike supplier for Jelly Belly professional cycling team. After the 2009 season, the team ended their relationship with GT and began riding [[Focus Bikes|Focus bikes]]. Lotto pro cycling team (now [[Lotto-Belisol]]) at one time had Easton aluminium tubing GT frames. The team now rides on [[Ridley (bicycles)|Ridley]] carbon frames. ===Co – Factory Team=== The Co – Factory Team was founded in 2008.<ref>[http://www.gtbicycles.com/gbr/eng/co-factory-team GT Bikes co-factory team page.]</ref> The team is composed of riders from across the US riding for local dealer teams that represent GT Bicycles. ===Notable past Factory team members=== [[Gary Ellis]], [[Greg A. Hill|Greg Hill]], Rick Webb, Trevor Meyer, Geoff Scofield, [[Tommy Brackens]], [[Mike King (BMX rider)|Mike King]], Gabe Weed, [[Lee Medlin]], [[Andy Patterson]], "Chicken" George Seevers, Dave Voelker, Alexis Vergara, [[Terry Tenette]], [[Randy Stumpfhauser]], [[Thomas Allier]], Mike Luna, In Hee Lee, Dave Brumlow, David Milham, Tom Haugen, [[Eddie Livingston]], [[Danny Nelson]], [[Josh White (BMX rider)|Josh White]], [[Eddie Fiola]], and [[Bob Morales]]. Past mountain bike team riders include Eric Carter, and Brian Lopes. ===Dyno Girls=== In the Questor Partners era 1998-2001, GT Bicycles published a Kustom Kruisers Katalog, featuring the Dyno [[Cruiser bicycle|Kustom Kruisers]] and “The Loveley and Talented Dyno Girls” (from the Brand Model and Talent Agency, of Santa Ana, California). The team of Dyno Girls consisted of: Amy (not Weber), Brooke, Mikyla and Theresa in 1999; Brooke (shake w/ fries), Gabrielle, Linda, Mikyla and Tiffany (T-bucket) in 2000; [[Amy Weber]], Denise, Jill and Kelly in 2001. ==Models== [[File:New GT Palomar MTB.jpg|thumb|New series (2012) hi-tensile steel GT Palomar MTB]] [[File:Gt avalanche 1.0 2008.jpg|thumb|GT Avalanche 1.0 (2008)]] Beach Cruisers * Dyno Glide * Dyno Deluxe (springer fork) * Moto Glide (purple, multi-speed) * Ultra Glide (tank) * Glide Seven (derailer) * Dyno Deuce (red or black, with flames) * Moon Eyes® (yellow/black; promotional) * [[Von Franco]] (orange) * Taboo Tiki (green) * Dyno Roadster (stretch) BMX * Santa Ana Nora Cup * Interceptor * Mach One * Mach Two * Pro Series * Pro Series (Team Model) * Speed Series * GT Zone DIRT JUMPING/TRAILS * Fueler * Bump * Fly Freestyle * Vertigos * Performer * Pro Performer * Pro Freestyle Tour (Older models were called the Pro World Tour) * Pro Freestyle Tour (Team Model) * Show * Zone * Fly * La Chiva * Cage * Tour * Voelker * outpost Road and Mountain * Aggressor (Polished aluminum hardtail) * Aggressor 20 and 24 (Boys version of the hardtail adult bike) * Arrowhead (Aluminum hardtail) * Avalanche (All Mountain hardtail) * Backwoods (Aluminum hardtail) * Borrego (Steel hardtail) * Bravado (True Temper chromoly steel hardtail - higher spec compared to Karakoram) * Bullet * CHUCKER (Aluminum dirt jumper) * Chucker (Freeride/dirt jump hardtail) * Course (Very rare road, Reynolds 853) * DHi (Downhill bikes) * Distortion (Dual suspension slopestyle and 4X bike) * Edge (Road Series) * Force * Fury (Unique full carbon downhill frame) * Grade (Gravel bike line) * GTR Series 2.0 (Road, comfort,carbon fiber, Ultegra) * Helion (Full suspension cross country) * iT-1 (Downhill/freeride dual suspension) * Karakoram (Steel hardtail) * La Bomba (4X hardtail) * Laguna 20 and 24 (Girls version of the Aggressor 20 and 24) * Lightning * Lightning (Titanium hardtail) * LTS (Full suspension) * Marathon * Outpost (Mountain hardtail) * Palomar * Pantera (All mountain hardtail) * Psyclone (Fillet brazed steel hardtail) * Psyclone (Hardtail - hand made steel frame from GT Tech Shop, True Temper and Reynolds 853) * RAGE * RAVE * Rebound (Hardtail - steel, and then later aluminum) * Richter 8 (Steel hardtail) * Ricochet * RTS (Full suspension) * Ruckus (Freeride hardtail and Duallys also Dirtbikes) * Saddleback Mountain (Hardtail) * Sanction * Sensor * Slipstream (Comfort) * STS (Carbonbikes) * Talera (Mountain hardtail) * Tempest * Tequesta (Steel hardtail) * Timberline/Nomad (Comfort) * Transeo (Crossover) * Vengeance * Xizang (Hand polished titanium hardtail) * Zaskar (Hardtail - aluminum and recently carbon fibre) * ZR Series road bikes with a numerical designation, the lowest being the best spec'd bike (i.e., a ZR 1.0 was a better quality bike than a ZR 4.0) * ZRX (Cyclocross) GT also manufactured a series of highly regarded Track bikes * GTB (General Track Bike) * GT Pulse * Jamie Skinner ==See also== *[[GT Factory Racing]], aka Atherton Racing ==References== {{Reflist}} ==External links== {{Commons category|GT bicycles}} *[http://www.gtbicycles.com Company website] *[http://www.fundinguniverse.com/company-histories/GT-Bicycles-Company-History.html GT Bicycles History] *[http://classiccycleus.com/home/superbike/ The 1996 GT Olympic Superbike] *[http://www.gtbicycles.cz Czech official website] {{American bicycle manufacturers}} {{Dorel Industries}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Gt Bicycles}} [[Category:Mountain bike manufacturers]] [[Category:Cycle manufacturers of the United States]] [[Category:American companies established in 1979]] [[Category:Vehicle manufacturing companies established in 1979]]'

Questor would file for bankruptcy on June 27, 2001, five years to the day that Richard Long had died. ==Teams== {{more citations needed|date=September 2014}} As well as the manufacturing of bicycles, GT Bikes sponsored several teams<ref>[http://www.gtbicycles.com/gbr/eng/riders GT Bikes Team home page]</ref> competing in [[BMX]], [[Mountain biking|mountain]] and [[Road bicycle racing|road]] competitions. ===GT Factory BMX Racing Team=== There are six riders on the BMX Race Team: [[Riley O'Neall|Riley O'Neil]], [[Luke Madill]], [[Joey Bradford]], [[Eric Rupe]] and [[Arielle Martin|Arielle Martin (Verhaaren)]], which compete in competitions held globally. ===GT BMX Freestyle Team (GT Air Show)=== BMX Freestyle and GT BMX have a well documented history on video and in magazine coverage from publications like Freestylin/Go, BMX Plus, and Ride which all fostered young talent like Eddie Fiola, Spike Jonze, Eddie Roman, and Mark Eaton and helped an entire generation of riders define themselves and their sport. From the mid-eighties onward, Team GT's Pro Freestyle riders were some of the biggest and most recognizable names in BMX. The GT BMX brand and team riders appear in the 'HellTrack' starting lineup scene in the BMX cult-classic film Rad. Famous names from the ranks of Teams past include X-Games Champions Dave Mirra, Jay Miron, Jamie Bestwick, Eddie Fiola, aka King of the Skateparks, Brian Scura 'Rad Dad' inventor of the Gyro, aka SST Oryg, Trevor Meyer, Joey (Phenom) Phee, Martin 'the Chairman' Aparijo, Josh White, Dino DeLuca, Dave Voelker, Brett Hernandez, Kevin Jones, Mark Eaton, Gary Pollak, Kevin the 'Gute' Gutierrez, Ruben Castillo, Robert Castillo, Jason Geoffery, Bill Neuman, Goro Tamai, Krys Dauchy, and Adam Jung. Along with Team Haro, Team GT helped shape the future of BMX Freestyle and helped pioneer a sport once deemed nothing more than a fad. GT produced some of the first Freestyle specific bikes in their early Performer and World Tour models. Later highly successful models were the Pro Freestyle Tour, which saw the first use of mountain bike style brake mounts for use of Dia-Compe 990, Dyno Pro Compe - one of the most ridden flatland frames of the early Nineties. GT was also there for the birth of street riding in the late Eighties with the GT Aggressor (Designed in California, but frames made in Taiwan) and Dyno Slammer bashguard models. GT also designed and sold the first flatland specific bike in the USA: the GT Show. GT Bike's current Freestyle Team includes the riders: Dave Dillewaard, Rob Wise, Eric Bahlman, Justin Coble, Bobby Kanode, Calvin Krey, and Brian Kachinsky. ===Mountain Team=== Eight riders in the Mountain Team, compete in global competitions including [[Downhill cycling|downhill]], [[four-cross]], [[Mountain bike trials|trials]], [[freeride]] and [[dirt jumping]]. The riders in the team are: Marc Beaumont, [[Hans Rey]], [[Eric Carter]], Roger Rinderknecht, Kevin Aiello, and Tyler McCaul. In 2012, GT added Kyle Strait, Dan Atherton, Gee Atherton, and Rachel Atherton to the team. [[Hans Rey]] has been sponsored by GT since 1987. ===Road Team=== GT Bikes briefly served as team sponsors and bike supplier for Jelly Belly professional cycling team. After the 2009 season, the team ended their relationship with GT and began riding [[Focus Bikes|Focus bikes]]. Lotto pro cycling team (now [[Lotto-Belisol]]) at one time had Easton aluminium tubing GT frames. The team now rides on [[Ridley (bicycles)|Ridley]] carbon frames. ===Co – Factory Team=== The Co – Factory Team was founded in 2008.<ref>[http://www.gtbicycles.com/gbr/eng/co-factory-team GT Bikes co-factory team page.]</ref> The team is composed of riders from across the US riding for local dealer teams that represent GT Bicycles. ===Notable past Factory team members=== [[Gary Ellis]], [[Greg A. Hill|Greg Hill]], Rick Webb, Trevor Meyer, Geoff Scofield, [[Tommy Brackens]], [[Mike King (BMX rider)|Mike King]], Gabe Weed, [[Lee Medlin]], [[Andy Patterson]], "Chicken" George Seevers, Dave Voelker, Alexis Vergara, [[Terry Tenette]], [[Randy Stumpfhauser]], [[Thomas Allier]], Mike Luna, In Hee Lee, Dave Brumlow, David Milham, Tom Haugen, [[Eddie Livingston]], [[Danny Nelson]], [[Josh White (BMX rider)|Josh White]], [[Eddie Fiola]], and [[Bob Morales]]. Past mountain bike team riders include Eric Carter, and Brian Lopes. ===Dyno Girls=== In the Questor Partners era 1998-2001, GT Bicycles published a Kustom Kruisers Katalog, featuring the Dyno [[Cruiser bicycle|Kustom Kruisers]] and “The Loveley and Talented Dyno Girls” (from the Brand Model and Talent Agency, of Santa Ana, California). The team of Dyno Girls consisted of: Amy (not Weber), Brooke, Mikyla and Theresa in 1999; Brooke (shake w/ fries), Gabrielle, Linda, Mikyla and Tiffany (T-bucket) in 2000; [[Amy Weber]], Denise, Jill and Kelly in 2001. ==Models== [[File:New GT Palomar MTB.jpg|thumb|New series (2012) hi-tensile steel GT Palomar MTB]] [[File:Gt avalanche 1.0 2008.jpg|thumb|GT Avalanche 1.0 (2008)]] Beach Cruisers * Dyno Glide * Dyno Deluxe (springer fork) * Moto Glide (purple, multi-speed) * Ultra Glide (tank) * Glide Seven (derailer) * Dyno Deuce (red or black, with flames) * Moon Eyes® (yellow/black; promotional) * [[Von Franco]] (orange) * Taboo Tiki (green) * Dyno Roadster (stretch) BMX * Santa Ana Nora Cup * Interceptor * Mach One * Mach Two * Pro Series * Pro Series (Team Model) * Speed Series * GT Zone DIRT JUMPING/TRAILS * Fueler * Bump * Fly Freestyle * Vertigos * Performer * Pro Performer * Pro Freestyle Tour (Older models were called the Pro World Tour) * Pro Freestyle Tour (Team Model) * Show * Zone * Fly * La Chiva * Cage * Tour * Voelker * outpost Road and Mountain * Aggressor (Polished aluminum hardtail) * Aggressor 20 and 24 (Boys version of the hardtail adult bike) * Arrowhead (Aluminum hardtail) * Avalanche (All Mountain hardtail) * Backwoods (Aluminum hardtail) * Borrego (Steel hardtail) * Bravado (True Temper chromoly steel hardtail - higher spec compared to Karakoram) * Bullet * CHUCKER (Aluminum dirt jumper) * Chucker (Freeride/dirt jump hardtail) * Course (Very rare road, Reynolds 853) * DHi (Downhill bikes) * Distortion (Dual suspension slopestyle and 4X bike) * Edge (Road Series) * Force * Fury (Unique full carbon downhill frame) * Grade (Gravel bike line) * GTR Series 2.0 (Road, comfort,carbon fiber, Ultegra) * Helion (Full suspension cross country) * iT-1 (Downhill/freeride dual suspension) * Karakoram (Steel hardtail) * La Bomba (4X hardtail) * Laguna 20 and 24 (Girls version of the Aggressor 20 and 24) * Lightning * Lightning (Titanium hardtail) * LTS (Full suspension) * Marathon * Outpost (Mountain hardtail) * Palomar * Pantera (All mountain hardtail) * Psyclone (Fillet brazed steel hardtail) * Psyclone (Hardtail - hand made steel frame from GT Tech Shop, True Temper and Reynolds 853) * RAGE * RAVE * Rebound (Hardtail - steel, and then later aluminum) * Richter 8 (Steel hardtail) * Ricochet * RTS (Full suspension) * Ruckus (Freeride hardtail and Duallys also Dirtbikes) * Saddleback Mountain (Hardtail) * Sanction * Sensor * Slipstream (Comfort) * STS (Carbonbikes) * Talera (Mountain hardtail) * Tempest * Tequesta (Steel hardtail) * Timberline/Nomad (Comfort) * Transeo (Crossover) * Vengeance * Xizang (Hand polished titanium hardtail) * Zaskar (Hardtail - aluminum and recently carbon fibre) * ZR Series road bikes with a numerical designation, the lowest being the best spec'd bike (i.e., a ZR 1.0 was a better quality bike than a ZR 4.0) * ZRX (Cyclocross) GT also manufactured a series of highly regarded Track bikes * GTB (General Track Bike) * GT Pulse * Jamie Skinner ==See also== *[[GT Factory Racing]], aka Atherton Racing ==References== {{Reflist}} ==External links== {{Commons category|GT bicycles}} *[http://www.gtbicycles.com Company website] *[http://www.fundinguniverse.com/company-histories/GT-Bicycles-Company-History.html GT Bicycles History] *[http://classiccycleus.com/home/superbike/ The 1996 GT Olympic Superbike] *[http://www.gtbicycles.cz Czech official website] {{American bicycle manufacturers}} {{Dorel Industries}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Gt Bicycles}} [[Category:Mountain bike manufacturers]] [[Category:Cycle manufacturers of the United States]] [[Category:American companies established in 1979]] [[Category:Vehicle manufacturing companies established in 1979]]'

[[Bob Morales]] said "GT Bicycles made an offer to buy Dyno. I accepted their offer because Dyno was severely undercapitalized and in need of investment. I negotiated a contract with GT to design bicycle frames and components and to consult on a marketing strategy for them." Morales developed a line of DYNO frames and bicycles for GT. DYNO also produced a line of clothing apparel and shoes under the DYNO brand. '
