Great finishing touches
The GT Avalanche has a lightweight frame for a responsive ride. RockShox/SR Suntour forks with 100mm travel give better grip, keeping your front wheel on the ground for more traction and less stress on your wrists. There’s also a 27-speed drivetrain and Continental Race King Tyres for great grip, fast rolling and durability.

Whatever the weather
The GT Avalanche is at home on cycle paths, gravel tracks and fire roads. It’s equally ideal for trails in the summer or riding with the family at the park. As it’s within the usual Cycle to Work scheme threshold, it makes a great commuting choice, especially as it’s rugged enough to withstand winter conditions.
