...........and more importantly :? :D , they changed some of the frame details, namely moving the head tube gusset to under the down tube and altering the drop outs.

That ruined it for me. :( (but then I'm a tart!)

Thats the one and only Zaskar like a Zaskar should be....:). Sold my 1993 LE at the beginning of this year and I keep banging my head cause it didnt need to leave....
Just seeing to much euro's.

(Something tells me the Zaskars till 1999-2000 were made in the USA. Otherwise my white Zaskar LE team should be a fake one...:).
They changed some details indeed like mech hanger etc but it's still A real Zaskar)
