a few for me but top of the list would have to be the original gt zaskar/xizang in 26" guise but updated for disc/suspension. zaskar has to be the ball burnished finish and same with ti xizang also.

stop farting around gt and bring them back in 26" 😉

I would have liked to have seen the Maverick bikes evolve over the years.
I still think the monolink is a fine system.

I guess the evolution of the Maverick SC32 forks is the X-Fusion Revel.

I still ride one of those Zaskars. Why would you want discs ? With a brace and ceramic rims the braking is as much as you need on the back (you are doing most on the front, [i]aren't[/i] you ?).

Hope closed disc on the front, on a Pace evo, in case you were wondering...

Couple of Gary Fisher bikes I'd like to see are the CR7 and the RS-1 although it would benice to see a modern tame on them.
