Industry pioneer GT Bicycles, in collaboration with Lucasfilm has re-imagined the lead character of The Mandalorian series, Din Djarin, in two-wheel form. Built on the 29-inch version of GT’s iconic Pro Performer freestyle BMX platform, the GT Pro Performer 29: The Mandalorian Edition features attention to detail that all fans and riders will appreciate, like Beskar armor-inspired paint, fantastic woven and leather accents, a Clan Mudhorn headbadge, “THIS IS THE WAY” in Mando’a debossed in backside of saddle, and even Darksaber-inspired reflective elements.

Wanting to pay tribute in a way that resonates beyond the Star Wars galaxy and across to fans of BMX, GT made sure to equip the bike with the quality components riders expect:

● GT Power Series Cranks
● Mallet Stem
● Cheat Code 4-pc. Handlebars
● And, for something truly unique, 29-inch 5 spoke mag wheels!

“Having my BMX world and a galaxy far far away.... come together is far more than a dream come true. Collaborating with Star Wars has been an honor and seeing the excitement build as the project came to life was incredible. We challenged ourselves to deliver more than a cool bike. We set out to make a bike that riders and Star Wars fans alike would be thrilled to own and fly around town on.” –
Ben Ward, GT Bicycles
