The 2006 version looks the same in profile, but the 100mm travel frame is completely new.

Going the other way, there’s the Avalanche Expert (£799.99 with RockShox Tora fork, SRAM X-9 transmission and Shimano Deore brakes) and the range-topping £999.99 Avalanche Pro featuring a Kinesis Superlite frame, RockShox Recon fork and an LX/XT component mix.Īs the iDrive XC, the iDrive 4 platform was the first of the reborn GT’s next-generation iDrive designs. There’s also a £299.99 Avalanche 3.0 Disc with a plain-gauge frame and a V-braked 3.0 for £249.99.
The same butted 6061 frame features on the non-disc 1.0 for a hundred quit less and the 2.0 Disc, which gives you an RST fork, entry-level Shimano bits and Tektro cable discs for £369.99. You’re getting a lot of bike for not much money – the Avalanche 1.0 Disc you see here packs a RockShox J3 fork (with lockout), Deore/LX transmission mix, Tektro hydraulic brakes (which bear a remarkable resemblance to Shimano’s Deore units) and Truvativ cranks for a trifling £569.99. Recent Avalanche incarnations have had universally good reviews, and it’s not hard to see why.
The last models carried over from the “old” GT have gone and there are some tasty new treats in store. The reborn GT has been making lots of progress over the last few years, and 2006 should be something of a watershed for the company.
