Product Description
Mountain Bike Magazine, April 2006 - "Tomorrow's drivetrain today"
EVO (UK), Jan '06 - "If you fancy throwing yourself down a mountain on a bike, then this is the one to do it on. Never before seen on a production bike, the eight-speed gearbox is fitted inside the frame to keep it clean and clear of rocks, etc. The adjustable Fox 40 RC2 forks have up to nine inches of travel and the hydraulic disc brakes would put most BMWs to shame. Rider must provide own insanity."
All Mountain Bike (Australia), Dec 05/Jan 06 - "GT must be commended for its commitment to developing the iT1. The sooner other manufacturers embrace internal gearing, the better. If you live bikes and love to sit at the forefront of technical innovation, look no further. Undoubtedly, GT has brought us one step closer to the future of the sport."
Mountain Bike Action, Sep '05 - "A gravity fiend couldn't ask for a better component spec and the internal transmission,m although unconventional, performed flawlessly."
decline, Aug '05 - "The internal transmission separates the drivetrain from the suspension, relieving the drivetrain from inefficiencies caused by the rear suspension movement and allowing for a different wheel path to better the suspension."
Popular Science, Aug '05 - "...the first iteration fo what looks to be the future of dual-suspension designs."
Velo Tout Terrain (France), July/Aug '05 - "If you have the means, reserve one now, you will not be disappointed."
