    Hi all newbie with 91 GT Zaskar

    Yeah, could do that, but it's ridden a couple of times a week & I've always found v brakes are much better at stopping than cantis :D As for the pedals, I thought it was looking a little dull in silver & black, so decided to pick out the red in the GT logo, so went for red cables & pedals...

    Hi all newbie with 91 GT Zaskar

    Thought I'd post a new pic, as things have changed. I broke the damper bolt on the RC35AB's, so it now has RC35MXCD's on, also changed the wheels, now riding on Hope Ti Glide hubs on Mavic 517 ceramic rims. Obviously that has led to a change of front brakes to XTR M952. Also managed to get a...

    1991 GT Zaskar fork help

    Aha, so what's the max recommended axle to crown measurement on the 91 Zaskar, or what's the max you'd recommend. I have read on here somewhere a post by yourself stating a max or it puts too much pressure on the down tube to bb weld, but can't find it. And what suspension forks from the period...

    1991 GT Zaskar fork help

    Hi therealjaxon, nah, I had project 2's on it, but sold them a while back, currently running Pace RC35's, but need a set of hard (blue) elastomers as with the mediums I keep rubbing the tyre against the crown off jumps, so wanted to go for a hard/medium mix to firm them up. But having trouble...

    1991 GT Zaskar fork help

    Hi all, looking at possibly changing the forks on my Zaskar, but know I'm limited by the axle to crown measurement. I've read it on a post on here, but can't find it again, so if any of you lovely people know the max measurement (sure GM will be along with it soon). also running Pace RC35's at...

    GT Tequesta

    Yeah it's good, bit different being single speed, but works well, been over to Bedgebury a couple of times, it's hard work up the hills, but I suppose it's just a case of perseverance. Getting the wheel sorted cost a bit as it needed new spokes, but now whenever the cog wears out its just a...

    Hi all newbie with 91 GT Zaskar

    Hi James, I got them on Ebay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/GT-ZASKAR-L-E ... 3f2e1ef8b9 I offered the guy £10 which he accepted instantly, my Zaskar 1's were still ok so only used the the others. Hope this helps

    GT Tequesta

    The Tequesta SS is done, running 32:16, feels nice, but think the hills will take their toll at first. Deore V brakes & levers, DMR tension seeker 2, seems to work well, bit fiddly to set up, FSA aheadset & Bontrager stem. Managed to get the hub moved over on my screw on hub, so running a Dicta...
