Question for GT crowd

Does a 98ish Zaskar LE take a 26,8 or 31,8mm FD? Early thanks. J

The larger of the two I'd say, unless your zaskar is steel

Re:

My 94 Zaskar takes a 26.8 seatpost and a 31.8 front mech.

31.8mm, I have a lovely xt 26.8mm front mech that wont fit

Re:

Are you sure it's a 98? Picture please. If the seat clamp is machined into the seat tube it's likely 27.2mm.

Yea..I am.

That's a '99 model year - I made the same mistake on my 96 Zaskar.

As above, manufactured in 1998 for release in 1999, i wouldnt have thought they would change the frame/tube sizes too much they should be similar, my 1994 is a 26.8 originally, but having said that ive just fitted a 27.0 Thomson elite seat post!

If there's one thing I've learned since joining Retrobike, it's that gm is THE MAN when it comes to anything GT related, so I'd listen to this:

And get yourself a 27.2mm seatpost

Cool. Thanks
