94 Zaskar Which of the four forks would you choose???

[JSO]

Just got this full XTR M900 94 Zaskar.

I stripped the old stickers and purchased a set of decals from Stickey Bikes. They are blue rather than the original black.

Was thinking of using a Future Shock (Mag 21) and painting the lowers to match the blue (ala SID).

Or I was thinking of using a NOS Mag21 that I have.
THe other choice is a Manitou.

I have a choice of using a Aheadset Tioga Headset or would prefer to use a XTR M900 Threaded Headset.

Please let me know you input.

Thanks

SIDE NOTE: THe XTR Wheelset have the original GT Titanium Axels and Skewers. THey Kind of look like the worm in a Mescal Bottle. Are thes any good or should I use the NOS M900 that I have?

mag 21 sl for me

 

[Inigo Montoya]

NOS Mag21 for me too.

Only one choice...the Mag 21. Either wheels would suit it fine. Although the Zaskar LE came with Mag 251 SL Ti the M900 hubs. It's your baby. Looks like a fun build!

Yep Mags

While the MAG21's you have would not be period correct in model (though no-one would notice ) they would probably go, but then I'm not a GT fan. Also why people mention SL or even Ti above since it's not.

Not the FutureShox's as they're based on the MAG20 and the internals are not ad good as the MAG21 you have...

I don't know much about the Manitous and which one would be correct I think they would look nice on the bike. probably them grey ones.

Mag 21.

If you go with for them, I'd also go for the threaded M900 too as whilst they're a year older than the frame they would be more in-keeping really.

Then you'd need a silver Syncros quill stem and post.

Technically, Kore would be more correct - but Syncros is much nicer kit...

I'd say the rock shox as they will compliment the XTR nicely. If you were going with a more CNC build the Mani's would work better. It'd be nice to see the Manitou build for a change though, lots of Zaskars doing the same thing.

only said sl's cause i looked at the picture, and thought they were... and then just couldn't be bothered to edit the post... but i still say the RS

For a change Manitou, although I'm a bit RS fan
