The 3rd generation GT Grade was the last GT bicycle that I worked on to reach production. I was handed the project in late 2020 and was tasked to continue the initial sketch concept into surface refinement, CAD, and production. The bike received many accolades including Gravel Bike of the Year by BikeRadar (Source) in 2024. Progressive geometry and styling keeps this bike relevant to this day.
As a tribute to the brand, I custom-painted a frame in the colorway of my first GT Drop Bar bike(ZR3000). A legendary bike for a legendary brand.
