Wat fork was on the 1991 Zaskar?

[novekili]

I just bought a 1991 Zaskar
First of all, judging from the frame number, it was built in June '91, so, might it be a '92 model?
Secondly, it hasn't the typical GT rigid fork - Bologna it was called, wasn't it? It's a tange big fork like thing. Is it original?

Lots of 'm are spotted with mag21's but if you want to ride it rigid I have a black Bologna and flipflop stem

Thanks mate, but I'm gonna keep the bike as it is. I just wanted to know if the fork on my Zaskar is the original one or not....

Tange Big Fork and GT Bologna were very similar.

Tange Big Fork and GT Bologna were very similar.

pretty sure the bologna´s are actually Spinners with a big GT pressed in logo

Actually, i think the 1991 model had tange and the 1992 had bologna forks but I'm not sure. My bike is completely original and it seems unlikely that the owner might have changed the fork... :roll:

Didn't the early 90s GTs have GT 3D fork that had 3 different mounting sports for the axle ?

Yes, the bologna had horizontal dropouts..

Just found out that the bologna was introduced in 1992, so mine could be original
