Snapped my GT zaskar in front of the seat post and now looking for a new frame.
Havent a clue what to go for, got about 300 quid to spend so basically im going to either go hardtail newish or older FS.
Seen some i-drives GT's but having the last one crack makes me worry, previous two zaskars were the older made in america jobs. Like specialized stuff and i've always fancied an Orange frame but am open minded about it as i need one within 4 weeks (making do with the daughters Hardrock pro atm.
Im 6'1 weighing in at 14 and half stone so i usually destroy wheels and bb's and will only be used to XC.
Any advice as ive been out the loop for a few years.

yeah i saw that but after having three Zaskars since 95 i think i might be up for a change. Will consider it though.

The Kinesis frames seem quite popular at the mo?
