Description

You’ve been dedicated since day one, just like GT. In a time when things are made to be replaceable, we wanted to build a bike that endures, especially when it comes to the trail. Built to have virtually no flex in the frame, the Zaskar LE is your go-to for every ride, from a weeknight cruise to weekend race days. You’ve been dedicated to riding since day one; you deserve a bike that has been there too.
