GT comes with a new edition of the Ruckus in 2010

With the new edition of the Ruckus, the GT stand at Eurobike had a real eye-catcher on display. The prototype impressed with its appealing design. With the matt black and the green anodized components, GT has hit the nerve. The bright green matches the equally bright colors of the coming fashion year. As the GT employees only got to see the bike themselves at Eurobike, it was not possible to elicit much information from them.

The "Ruckus" will have 180 millimetres of suspension travel and will most likely be equipped with a Hammerschmidt gear crank in the top version. GT has designed a special CNC-milled pendulum for these prototypes to accommodate the Hammerschmidt, which is very likely to go into series production. The prototype was also fitted with Avid Elixir, Sram components and a Rock Shox Totem Coil. As with all GT fullys, the "Ruckus" also features the "Independent Drivetrain" suspension system (ID). "ID" effectively eliminates drive influences and irons the downhill terrain as smooth as a baby's skin.
