what is a GT "A" Track bicycle?
So the search function requires words longer than GT A, lol.
I'm familiar with the GTB as well as the Pulse, but what exactly is the GT "A"? I heard about it at the track last week; the guy who explained it to me said it was a different "series" than the GTB?? 600 vs. 700?
I don't know exactly what that means, but i'd like to learn more about it.
any info would be awesome, thanks

weren't the GTB and the Pulse the same bike with different stock components? That's what I remember hearing, although I could've heard wrong...

GTB was Taiwanese made with less grade aluminum and a steel fork and the Pulse was American made with Easton tubing and a Kinesis Alu fork

why would you speculate on something you know nothing about? not one to nitpick, but of all the things newjacks do, guessing about what something is based on nothing substantial is the most annoying.
