The question that’s on every mountain biker’s lips today: Were you the winner of the Singletrack GT Zaskar Carbon giveaway? Unless you’ve been hiding under a rock, you’ll know that we’ve been running a competition over the past fortnight to find a lucky new owner of this gorgeous Zaskar Carbon frameset from GT Bicycles. Well, the lines have already closed, with entries having wrapped up on midnight on Sunday. Been following us on Facebook Live today? Then you’ll know that the winners have already been drawn. So…who won it??

Yes, it’s really real. It’s a very limited edition GT Zaskar Carbon frame, and the only one in the world that we know of that has been signed by Hans Rey himself!

Just in case you were confused that the Zaskar had been signed by another Hans Rey, this one has definitely been signed by Mr “No Way Rey”.

After the lines had closed, we had over 600 entries into the GT Zaskar Carbon Frame Giveaway. All competitors had to do to enter was to answer this one simple question:

“How many bicycles have Hans & Carmen Rey donated via their Wheels4Life charity?”

Yep, that was it! The answer by the way is 8560 bicycles, which is an unbelievable feat on behalf of Hans & Carmen Rey. The charity is entirely run and managed by Hans & Carmen, and they have undertaken some incredible projects over the years to get bikes to those in need all around the globe. If you’ve got a spare minute or two, make sure you check out Wheels4Life.org to see some of their handy work.
