Basic Bike Info

Bicycle Type: 
Road Bike
Serial No.: 
GT9G0618
Size: 
Medium/Large
Color: 
Blue/White/Black
Condition of Bicycle / Distinguishing Features: 
The bike is predominately blue. It has a blue bottom bar with black lettering and white top bar. I rode this bike across the country so it means a lot to me and has a bit of wear and tear. The frame is marked up quite a bit with black smudges and some of the paint worn off. There is one specific mark on the top bar near the seat post. I used to ride with my bike chain wrapped around the seat post and it wore the paint down at the spot. Before it was stolen, the bike had a very distinct red, white, and blue spotted grip tape on the handle bars. There was also a USA ribbon tied to the bars. I had the following upgrades added to the bike… - Shimano SPD Pedals - Specialized Seat - Gator Skin tires - A wireless CatEye sensor was left on the fork. I took the wheel sensor and the actual computer off before locking the bike up. The mount for the computer was tied to the stem. I believe there was also a Bokoo Bikes sticker on it from where I purcahsed the bike.
