My brand new 2008 model Tempest. Took it down a trail today, did a few decent drops and jumps and it handles very nicely. Cut my arms to shit, mind.

Hard tail GT's look so much better than other hard tails. THeyve done it forever but its that triple triangle frame that does it. Nice colour too.

Not a bad looking bike. Good colour.
Not too keen on the forks, they are a bit poo! Worth the upgrade to DJ's.
Also the gear shifters are a bit rubbish as you can change gear too easily unintentionally on a trail.
Look on merlincylces, they usually do good deals on forks.

weak frame compared to its competitors because of all the extra welding, from the cross thru frame :/, Dude sweet paint scheeme thoughh. Although i would sayy stick some new forks on itt :D, make it look like E, rid your self of the front brake and stick a hope 203mm on the back!. ILOVEYOU

The gloss finish looks nice on that chuck.. i mean tempest, the 2.0 in black with gold decals on looks nice. the frame is exactly the same as a chuckers, the only mod GT made to the frame is the brace between the seatstay and chainstay on the disc side near the caliper mount, hey thats nice though cant wait to see it modded!!

im getting that in 4 days... nice bike... how is it on the jumps ???what do you think blue or red???
kieranmtbaddict replied... on 23 August 2007
oh its not too bad, you seen the blue one in real life mate?? yeh when i saw the grip shift i felt gutted but i might just change it to single speed, but im gonna be making alot of mods when i get its.. you made any changes to it yet??
BeefManatee replied... on 21 August 2007
nah theyre the ones that came with it. I'd say the only downside is teh gripshift, but i dont really mind gs and its easily changeable. I like the red one better, hence i bought it lol. It looks very red in this pic, but its probably not as shiny in real life.Very nice on the jumps, forks bottom out on big drops but thats to be expected. Theres another pic of it here if you wana have a look http://i19.tinypic.com/6ce5ws0.jpg
kieranmtbaddict replied... on 21 August 2007

I test rode one of these last week, not heavy at all. Ended buying a Specialized in the end but was very impressed with this one. I like the frame, looks better in real life if you know what i mean. Rides very nicely.

looks good - but heavy
BeefManatee replied... on 17 August 2007
Its nowhere near as heavy as it looks. I thought it would be heavy when i saw it in the shop,but gave it a ride and it picks up very easily.Forks are a touch too bouncy but im going to be changing a few things when more cash comes my way.
