The 99's must have been one of the first years painting the zaskar and xizang? was that team USA colors? a mate had a lobo with the same paint job, looked great with the red boxxers.
Will look good too then with the blue sids i think. look forward to the build, can't be too many painted xizangs gettin about

99 was the only year they painted the Xizang as a catalog listed frame. I have seen one in Yellow and Blue but it was never offered in the catalog.
All the top of the line models had the red/white/blue paint scheme in the 99 model year....Xizang, Zaskar LE, XCR, Lobo
