Overview
About this bike
GT's Tachyon Elite is about taking the long way home, kicking back after the day is done and feeling the wind in your face. Its light, efficient and lively GT butted-aluminum frame and fast-rolling 700c aluminum wheels keeps things moving quickly, with get-up-and-go to spare. And, you'll appreciate the precision-shifting 24-speed Shimano Claris drivetrain that lets you cruise over the climbs, so you'll feel free to take that detour or explore an undiscovered road. You also get powerful linear-pull brakes for speed control. And, the Elite is topped off with GT's own high-quality stem, handlebar, seatpost and seat.
