Re: 1994 GT Zaskar Aqua

Zasqua no

i do like that one

a friend of mine calls it the GT zak-star, but he genuinely thinks thats what its called.... hes a bike technition that i used to run cycle surgery sessions with, so he really has no excuse :facepalm:

Re:19/4/15

Bars and stem have been changed and the handling is improved (it doesn't feel like im taking a hybrid off road like before lol) So they'll do, for now ...also got a matching GT bottle and cage from work. heres some pics following last night's test ride;

Yeah they suit the bike quite nicely, but my minds set on buying better/lighter (and probably modern) bars and stem

Update :30/4/15:


The RS mags feel so smooth and robust, just like an early version of modern xc forks. i get on with them really well but they are early suspension none the less and i cant get used to how skinny they look on the zaskar
Ive replaced the rear cantilever with an XT v brake (used with a v-dapter) it works better than the old m900 canti and a lot easier to set up. the XT thumbie finally failed (im suprised it held out this long, it was f*cked) Ive replaced it with an m739 rapid-fire and the bike now runs an 8 speed

Heres a few pics from the trails today












I havent revisited this trail in years... My bike was the '99 FSR, i had a lot of fun on that bike, But i swapped it for a mango stumpy which i didnt really like, and i later sold.

Re:

Nice pics and I like the fact that you found all your old spots to take the photo's

Admit it though - you carried that bike from place to place before putting it down for the photos didn't you

the two are both in the same spot, just off the main cycle path. i didnt go out of my way to find it
usually if im taking pictures for a thread update then i'll take a few shots each time i stop to have a drink. unless im riding past something that would make for a good background (like that rusty crop plow) then i might have to stop and take a picture there. i do enjoy photography though just like i enjoy biking, i guess you could say this is where the two interests come together.
