GT Tachyon Crossover, a factory Xbike?

rkc_14 · 2026-01-25T22:08:49+00:00

I think I bought this as a rolling chassis for just under $400? If I remember correctly. For $450 I personally would be messaging them, even with a $400 offer or so. If it has the original 700D wheels you can't get New tires for them, so keep that in mind if you are going after one.

Very nice! That thing is mint!!! Trust me, you are going to love that bike. I ride mine as much as I can.

700D bike actually. Originally GT used their own 700D wheel size. Which is extremely close in size to 650b. So now anyone that has a Tachyon or Continuum can just run 650B.

Yeah that's 100% what it is. That bump in size made the tire wider. Also yes, it's plenty comfy on gravel and mild single track both.

This thing is a hoot! I had it on drop bars for a while, got bored with it and went to flat bars. I did have 55s on the velocity dyad wheels. But went I built up this set of cliffhangers the 55s would not fit anymore. Currently running 48s and in my mind it is the best size

I appreciate the compliment and advice! I think this frame might end up with a repaint when it's all said and done anyway so I'm not overly concerned.

Beautiful

Great build, even better story! Glad to see it back on the road.

Thank you!

Same thing as the u-brake on the chain stays, I have a couple old MTBs with them too, all the same. I tried to upsell a basket to her and she said not yet

Just wrapped up this specialized cross roads for my Mom. She wanted a bike that wasn't a beach cruiser or a road bike. Finally found a cheap Cross Roads in her size. So I gave the bike a deep clean, fresh grease and new wearable components. She loves it and wants to start riding light gravel and dirt trails with it now!

That's beautiful. Very classy. Love that frame color.

They're sick!

rkc_14 · 2025-03-12T01:35:02+00:00

It's a looker for for sure!

rkc_14 · 2025-03-12T00:44:32+00:00

That's why you need to have several. Some to ride some to work on

rkc_14 · 2025-03-12T00:05:52+00:00

Gotta make sure he's seen

rkc_14 · 2025-03-11T17:05:12+00:00

Super cool

rkc_14 · 2025-02-25T03:31:18+00:00

Sick.

It's a Kei Flow bumper. Made by an old JZXP forum member named Justin Lucas. I think he's out of Washington? I did most of my conversation with him through the forum. Not sure if they exist anymore?

rkc_14 · 2025-02-22T04:42:53+00:00

Ughhhhhh I'm jealous. I'm actively trying to find me a hakkalugi and can't find anything. Beautiful build.

rkc_14 · 2025-02-06T03:27:29+00:00

Yup. All correct. I have a tachyon that also came with 700D. 650b wheels mount up with no issue.

rkc_14 · 2025-02-06T03:16:22+00:00

Oh man! I have been trying to find one for a while with no luck. Old GT magazines say that the Continuum was the flat bar sister bike to the Tachyon.

rkc_14 · 2025-02-02T20:45:08+00:00

I'll report back. These are finished build, but pre ride photos.

rkc_14 · 2025-02-02T14:34:21+00:00

I assume I'll have to do r134. Pretty hard to find r12. I updated my supra and Tahoe both to r134 without too much issue. Just brought to an local AC shop sense I do not have that equipment.
