1987 Milestones:
1987 was the first year for the double bend “S” frame for the Pro Performer and Pro Freestyle Tour.

It was the first year for the GT bubble font logo on the chain used on the PFT and PFTTM.

The first year for the Odyssey Gyro.

The first and only year for the Viscount 2123 seat.

The first and only year for the GT seat clamp that came in two sizes (std and XL).

The first year for the GT Superlace hubs (not coaster brake).

The first year for the GT Power Series 3 pc cranks for the Team Models.

The first year for the Team Model!

The first year for the u-brake mounts under the chain stays and use of the Dia Compe 990.

The second year for OGK mags and the last year available.

Also the first year for the GT LP2 freestyle tires.

It was the last year for the GT mallet stem on production bikes.

Fun fact! All Pro Performer, Pro Freestyle Tour and Pro Freestyle Tour Team Models used a Pro Performer decal on the handlebars.

Second fun fact! There are two style or decals in 1987. One version with a white border around the Pro and Tour words and another version without the white border. Both are correct.
