GT Tachyon 4.0 bike review

GT produced the Tachyon 4.0 bike in 2011 and can be classified as a Road bicycle.
Tachyon 4.0 bike is available in many sizes such as Extra small , Small , Medium and Large .
GT Road Tachyon 4.0 can be found in one single color which is White.
This bike is equiped with 700 x 32c Kenda Kwest tires and Stainless spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by Jalco DRX3000, 32-hole. GT equiped this exact model with Tektro RX-1 brakes, Shimano EF-51 levers braking system and Formula alloy hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride GT used Aluminum material for the frame. GT flat bar high strength material is used on the handlebar of this Tachyon 4.0 to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of GT alloy.
For the smoothest biking experience Shimano FC-M311, 48/38/28t teeth is used on this bicycle linked to KMC HG39 chain that is easily replaceable as stated by GT, the whole system is connected to a high reliability Shimano EF-51 gear shift levers.
