    96 Zaskar LE Build

    Another Zaskar! Jjjj It seems like an epidemic They are really pretty, worth rebuilding. The Gts are beautiful. What a shame about the Hubs, I love Hope and the truth is that these Zaskars are crying out for blue components. I have resisted as long as I could, but in the end it will also have...

    It seems like a great reconstruction job to me. You have brought that little wonder back to life. Congratulations. I love the seat post, very appropriate

    GT Psyclone 1994 16 inch - very slow build

    Incredibly pretty, with those clean and crisp welds. And it keeps the store sticker! brilliant Good find, congratulations. It will surely be spectacular when you finish it.

    Gt Avalanche (tricked out) ride

    How beautiful the GTs are. The model doesn't matter. Of course the fork is differentiating, it fits very well, very original, far from the classic Rock Shox. I like

    1991/1992 GT Zaskar (completed)

    That's ok. You have to take care of the details. The saddle is a good detail I think I have the Syncros vectorized files, in case you want to make the new vinyls (although I don't know if I have the "wheel"). By the way, could you tell me a product to darken the leather of a saddle? It's green...

    Sold Bianchi NTH Martini Racing Full Suspension 1997

    With the data you have provided now, the prototype option really cannot be ruled out. It is true that many times the teams made bicycles for the riders, either so that they could try them out or to give them something that the cyclist preferred. My friend David Plaza in his first time on the...

    Story of a summer love. GT Zaskar 1996

    The cranks finally arrived. It took me a while to find them but they appeared. Let's see if I can get the seatpost too.

    Story of a summer love. GT Zaskar 1996

    I think the Votec fork looks great on your Zaskar, it gives that look of robustness and competition that suits the Zaskar so well. For the forks, consider 2 options: a '98 SID. I think this was the best option, it has a beautiful blue and discreet yellow bands. The other a SID WCS Team in its...

    Story of a summer love. GT Zaskar 1996

    And just wait for the cranks to arrive to start assembling the bike. I don't like to "go by chapters", you can assemble a bicycle in an afternoon, if no problem arises, and it is more gratifying to see it all at once than little by little. In addition, it is better to have the pieces stored in...

    Story of a summer love. GT Zaskar 1996

    Now what I'm not clear about: -The brakes: I got some Avid Mag...they are really nice and light. I also know that they work well. But... they look too similar to any other Avid I have some Single Digit 7s and they look too similar. I don't think I'll put them on even though I really like Avid...

    Story of a summer love. GT Zaskar 1996

    -Bottom bracket: Race Face Taperlock Ti in 107 mm. You can see the catalog of the cranks I wanted and put that used the Shimano 107 standard. I would have liked to check it before bringing the bottom bracket, but the cranks take a long time and if I wait for them and then order the bottom...

    Story of a summer love. GT Zaskar 1996

    Thanks for the comments, they give a lot of encouragement. I'm waiting for the connecting rods, there are still about 2 weeks until they arrive. So I have been taking advantage to see what I am clear about and what I am not clear about. -Wheels: I almost always make the wheels myself, I like it...

    Story of a summer love. GT Zaskar 1996

    That's what I was thinking, it looks like a hard shoot. The triple triangle is also very hard. I know this from my BMC Teamelite, even though it is made of carbon, it is not very comfortable.

    Sold Bianchi NTH Martini Racing Full Suspension 1997

    You can only say that it is beautiful. I don't think it's from the official team or the Corsican cast, the group is an XT...and other details. And maybe it's not a prototype either. Furthermore, buying prototypes is a risk, they are basically for storage (I have some prototype parts and they are...

    Well, it may be like that after reading legrandefromag's good note.

    1991/1992 GT Zaskar (completed)

    That's how it is. As I mention in my Zaskar, I fell in love with the frame in '96, NOT the bicycle. It was very easy for someone to change frames and put in what they had, which was already very good material, but it could also happen the other way around: Brands announce their ranges before...

    Story of a summer love. GT Zaskar 1996

    I have already collected the decals with the correct proportions. The pieces are also starting to arrive. The Zaskar, in addition to being beautiful, has a robust appearance. It was also a racing machine. The official team used the Xizang, but a large majority of fans used this GT to compete. So...

    The European resistance: 1996 Genius OR + Sachs Quarz

    I have weighed it. He has gained some but is still below 9.4 kg. I had to change the latex Vittoria inner tube because the fans would burst. It has happened to me on an ATX 800 and now on this one. It's a shame, I have several Vittoria inner tubes in latex but I can't use them anymore, just keep...

    1993 team raleigh dyna tech x grundig world.cup team bike

    Spectacular. Although Raleigh is known in Spain, we really don't know much about the brand. Of course the best known are those from the Tomac era, especially the titanium/carbon frame and the beautiful titanium frame...
