Out of interest; how difficult would it be to crack a zaskar

[mattr]

Depends what you liked and where you rode.

Where i was it was all boulder fields....... so something to take the edge off was essential.

And just to be clear, what is flying over your heads and can be decades 'old' is 2014 series and 7075 series aluminiums that cant be welded so are bonded Juts like an Alan or Sakae Litage and so on.

Yes, the zaskar frame was as hard as nails and not for non burly riders.

I'd never heard that before. In my 20s when my Zaskar frame was being dragged home in it's box from the LBS I was 10 stone.. all this time later I'm about 10.5. I never had a problem with mine but maybe I need to eat more cake and beef up a bit... hmmm...

Everyone needs to eat more cake.
