Downtube cable stops are different, cable guide by the seat is a riveted titanium jobbie - you have to see the frame in person to check. 'Mavic Equipped' chainstay models come later, 1994 or 1995 onwards
as for riding, early Zaskars are hand built in the USA and the ride is totally different to an Avalanche or some such.

My Xizang has no serial number on it. I got the frame of a friend in 2000 who owns a bike ship in Chicago, who got it from the local GT wholesaler when they had a clearance sale. The only identification on the frame was 3 letters (initials?) written in felt tip pen on the top tube. My friend seemed to think it was an un-issued team frame.
You shure those are '94 decals? I bought a Zaskar in '96 and it had the same decals.legrandefromage":3frwaqcn said:genuine '1993' Zaskar with '94 decals:
