Always nice to see old Zaskars, and only recently learned they did an early black one, so nice to see this pop up. Although (and I honestly am sorry for saying this) that photo makes me a little bit sad...such a nice frame (decals excused) struggling to shine through the bits hanging off it...sorry! At least it is being ridden though, which is something I suppose.

Any future plans for this, or is it destined to be a trainer until the end of days?

Sorry a lot of the bits I had laying around. I built it last year the day before the Exmoor Beauty Cycle challenge (without the bars and chainset) then road it around the course. Was a bonus on the uphills.

To my knowledge the black zaskar wasnt available in the uk, you had to get one imported and they were hardly plentiful, so that's a pretty good find 8)

It Deserves better than being a parts bin build though imo
