Time Machine wanted...does anyone have one? I'll take a Guerciotti in a 51 or 52 and a few complete Zeus 2000 groups for spares. :p
Best, Ben

I had Zeus 2000 hubs and brakes on my custom back in 1979. I loved the look of them. i would have had a crank set, but i was a poor college student at the time. If anyone ever comes across a dark blue imron custom with thinned prugnaut lugs, cast bottom bracket and fork crown and the mentioned Zeus part on it (midwest likely) let me know. SN may or may not be 071860 (my BD).

I loved that Zeus 2000 stuff. Zeus was exotic and cool, and it was good stuff too. I wish I could go back in time and buy a groupset. I still remember a bike that came into the shop with a black 2000 group including the short reach center pull brakes. Black was rare and trick at the time. Oh the times have changed...

The alloy freewheels were extreme. I remember one of my bike clubmates stripping the teeth off of a cog on one of those on a climb. Best for special races only... ;)
