zaskar 1996 in yellow....is it???

again hearsay, but im sure some here have had problems with things bought from that guy, items not as described, taking an age to arrive etc,

after you have removed the paint are yo going to be able to have the same argument as the frame is not as he sold and sent it, and he could also say he genuinely didnt know what was underneath

but i suppose you could always just take a punt and you could be lucky

Cheers, yes the nitro does the job, by the looks of the paint it may just fall off anyway

Yes im going to have a bid, always looking for the next build lol

I think this was it a couple of weeks ago, as a complete bike:

I used to own a '97 factory yellow Zaskar, but judging by the flaking I'd assume this isn't factory paint... :? :?

mmm the plot thickens :roll:

Zaskar LE was frame only....

 

[Charlieboy28]

not really a plot, if you check through his feedback you will find lots of bikes as a buyer and lots of parts of thise bikes as a seller, its what he does, not sure if he makes a living from it, but i think he does all right

figure of speech charlieboy28 i remember a thread about that full bike, a few negative comments if i remember rightly regarding paintwork...
Anyway the chap is willing to nitro it all off this weekend, then mail me some pics, so fingers crossed it is ball burnished underneath, otherwise its going to look crappy i think dont you?
The decision will be made then...i will keep the post alive with updates...
thanks for all comments...much appreciated as ever

that is decent of him , i stripped a GT frame of its original paint in september october time, and it was a major bollox and a half of a job,
that respray i hope will be easier, but you have no idea how many nooks and crannies a gt frame has with all them triangles, should be able to see the main tubes at least though,

 

[Gazbally]

Yes i thought the same, will assess the frame when its naked... :shock:
