Hi guys,

 

Does anyone have a 26 x 1.95 tyre lying around gathering dust by any chance? Neighbour's son cut his tyre quite badly and she cant afford a new tyre at the moment.

I've got a couple of 26" tyres lying around.

Ive got an old alu GT Zaskar Team frame hanging in my garage. A few years back I stripped the clearcoat and started polishing the frame, but never got around to finishing it so it is currently just has a bare brushed alu finish. The frame is XL, takes 26"wheels and has QR dropouts and disc mounts. If you are still looking let me know. A donation to an animal charity is all I would really want for it, and we would just have to arrange shipping as i'm in JHB.

Hi Zaskar. Sorry never got notified about your post and only saw it today. 

Thanks, but the frame i need is for old caliper brakes. I'm sure someone would love that frame for a commuter. Much appreciated.

Hey you Rusty old fart .... try giving Woodstock Cycles a shout, they would certainly have a frame for you and in that price range.

No problem. The frame actually has both disc and V-brake mounts ????

Careful... He will ask you to hang on to it for him then never come and collect it.........

Its a nice frame and ive held onto it for sentimental reasons, but ive come to the realization that i will never need it or ride it again. Its not super collectible, like some of the earlier Zaskar frames, so all i really want for it as i mentioned in my first post would be a donation to an animal charity. Im not fussy, but i think a few hundred ZAR might just help a with a few meals for some rescue dogs. Im not sure where you are based, but we usually support FORA or Husky Rescue up here in Jhb.
