Reintroduced in 2019, the GT Sensor gets a fresh suspension design, trail-worth geometry, & solid spec. We take it to the mountains to see if that's enough!

Thoroughly capable spec and great performance on tech terrain
Bottom bracket height and drop don’t fit with rest of geometry
Unsuitable tyres for UK riding

A review of the 2019 GT Sensor Expert, a 130mm 29er. Specced with components from Sram and Rockshox, as well as a full carbon front triangle.

We've tested the top of the range GT Force, this time it’s the entry-level GT Sensor Alloy. Opposite ends of the price spectrum, they have a lot in common.

Level brakes are underpowered

After a few months, we were invited to Trysil, Norway to discover all the secrets of the new Sensor and the new Force, with the new, LTS (Linkage Tuned Suspension) suspension layout. The new LTS The new Sensors and Force represent an important turning point for the American brand that completely abandons their most recent interpretations, namely the AOS (Angle Optimized Geometry) and the I-Drive, which they have
