![]() ![]() By the time the Mag 21 came around attention was turning towards full suspension and that's when I wanted a GT RTS, a cool looking but marginal suspension design. A Zaskar with a Mag 20 (92-93?)represents the high point of this iconic models existence that was such a lusted after bike. It was a cool rigid bike at first but the Zaskar really emerged around the same time as front suspension did, and faded a little when full suspension emerged. Hans Rey, Furtado, Grewal, Mike King, and even Voulliouz raced them. kmr/bikes/strat1.jpgġ997 Amp Research B-3 (also to be sold, lack of use in 26ers happening now with me). kmr/bikes/thunderbolt1.jpgġ991 Rocky Mountain Stratos (my first "good" mtb, what got me started on doing custom builds and wrenching for a profit). kmr/bikes/fcf1.jpgġ988 Rocky Mountain Thunderbolt (selling it, too small and I haven't ridden it myself in 5 years). when we ride something to the point of failure, it becomes art, not something that goes into a trash bin.ġ984 Rocky Mountain Fat City Flyer (selling it, too small, never ridden it off-road once since I bought it). That's probably something done more by people who got into riding in the 80s and 90s than say the 2000s. I've got several broken frames that were high demand at the time, hanging as art work about my house also. While I'm now selling off most of my older bikes (there's a good demand for 1997 and older bikes and components), I do have a fair bit of old schoolness still. ![]()
