I've got the chance of a GT peace and wondered if anyone here has one.

My current ss is an old Spesh hardrock frame with rigid forks and all the bits and pieces that I had in the garage hung on it.

Is a peace worth buying?

Oh and btw I have other geared bikes so there's no need for the luddite comments 🙂

Cheers

I've been looking at the Charge ss and a couple of others but at the price I've been given reckon the peace maybe coming into my care

i've had a 26" peace. I thought that it was pretty good. It's a touch heavy weightwise but the ride is stereotypically springy steel. The standard fork is much too long tho and cocks up the handling. A 420mm fork is perfect but i like fast handling so most people would probably prefer a 440. I could certainly recommend one.
