AFAIK. But it's a small complaint. If I can find pix I will update with some.
Thanks for the reply! I found a late 90's polished aluminum Zaskar frame with chris king headset and bars for 275, but maybe i can talk the guy down. Does it sound like a decent price to you? It looks like this model in good shape here in Berlin go for 600 to 800 euro... I could PM you a link and maybe you could tell me if it looks like a good price?
