    Mr Scruff & Moloko too 👌. Can't work on a bike without tunes.

    gt zaskar build

    The Bombers were the first fork of the 90's I ever rode and thought, finally someone has cracked it! The small bump compliance and the freeness of movement of the stanchions was a step ahead of anything else I'd ridden at the time. A ?x10 speed groupset is definitely possible as my 2012 Cube...

    gt zaskar build

    At the end of the day, it's your bike. Re-purpose it as you see fit and enjoy the journey. There is no rule book, just a lot of righteous opinions and will to judge. Looks like its coming on nicely so interested to see where it ends up.

    Wanted Kore stem (Yellow) 1 1/8" aheadset - preferably 120mm

    As it says in the title, I'm after a yellow Kore stem in 1 1/8" aheadset flavour for a Zaskar build. I have a 1" version in the for sale section which I purchased when not paying full attention that is NOS boxed stock. You can either have: > Cash payment for your stem > trade for a 1" version...

    GT Zaskar 1996 build

    So after a hiatus of 27 years since owning a Zaskar LE 1994 model (that was stolen as all bikes are in Oxford), an opportunity finally came my way to own another. It's the only bike I've genuinely missed from my early years of MTB'ing, so when forum member Kevhl offered me the frame & forks for...

    For Sale 2008 Turner Flux frame - medium

    Honest opinion, you did ask for this! From what I read on these forums people generally aren't interested in anything post 1998. There seems to be a general disdain for newer bikes and modern geometry so you are just better off auctioning it on eBay. That era of bikes is in a difficult spot at...

    Sold SOLD - Spin wheels for sale

    Collected today, wiped down with a damp microfibre cloth and look magic. Just what the Zaskar needed. In case any of you buy bikes/components from ‘Fat Gav’ (who ironically is anything but!) in the future, I wanted to validate he is honest, fair and reliable so you can buy with total confidence...

    Wanted Hope black QR skewers wanted - period correct for 1996 bike

    That's incredibly generous, are you sure?!! AS soon as you know the postage costs let me know and I'll wire you the money / address details. Put blue ones on the bike and it just hasn't resonated so I'm retreating to safe black! So if you ever need any blue ones give me a nod!

    Wanted Hope black QR skewers wanted - period correct for 1996 bike

    As if by magic, I hoped they’d emerge on here! How much are you looking for?

    Worry about snapping a frame?

    Some carbon bikes have a rider weight limit, I’ve seen 120kg flouted as a number in some manufacturer literature, but my personal opinion is that: 1) carbon frames can split because somewhere there was always an inherent weakness in a specific frames manufacturing process, and at some point it...

    Wanted Hope black QR skewers wanted - period correct for 1996 bike

    Anyone got a set of black Hope QR skewers for a 96 Zaskar they fancy parting with? If so please don't be shy, I've got a shrapnel in my back pocket burning a QR sized hole. Preferably in serviceable quality / no stress cracks and in half decent condition. Thanks in advance

    Oh man...I think I just became a collector

    I'm sat somewhere on the fence in this debate. And I appreciate vocalising this comes with risks when you vent those opinions in the back yard of a fan group. Do I find retro bikes more interesting / beautiful / desirable than modern bikes - YES Do I think retro suspension stands up to new...
