Some people will queue outside a store in anticipation of being among the first to buy a latest release product. It may not often be a bicycle, but the want and need for the latest models does exist, some people just love the latest ……….of anything! The latest and greatest as the saying goes. Wanting next years model even before the current year model is available. Some people must have the latest “hot off the press” items. For some people, the only important factor is newness. But that is only some people, whereas Everyone loves a bargain! And if it happens to be last years model? Who cares! In many instances there is no great difference from one year to the next, except perhaps with regard to the price. As the prime sales season has ended the distributors of GT bikes have cut the price of any previous seasons stock to clear their warehouse for the coming season. At Ivanhoe Cycles we pass this saving on, helping GT to clear some stock and helping you to a bargain. In many cases these discounts see the purchaser walk away with a far higher quality bike than first anticipated, or with the bike of their dreams at a far cheaper price than expected.
The 2011 GTR Series 2 road bike shares the same great frame as the upper model Series 1, and is fitted with the renowned Shimano 105 groupset. With a nice blend of other mid range components, the Series 2 is a steal at only $1299, considering the regular price of $1799. We have a full range of sizes as of early November but as these sell out we will be unable to obtain replacement stock from GT so alternatives will have to be considered such as the
Wilier Lavaredo's at $600 off also $1299 or the Cube Attempt (Shimano 105) at $1399
