Blatant 'Zinn' show off thread

I dont own one, I do want to own one. Each one has its own unique back story - but for now enjoy Retrobikes finest:

Slimjoe's:

Giom6

Sinnerman's

Zinn Z-Disc - they made 3 I think, Andy did not seem impressed with the first gen cable discs, plus the rear hubs are oddball threaded tandem items (I have a couple of choices to use). Never seen another.

As it came to me:

Currently undergoing a very long term restoration, but I have nearly everything to get it back to magazine review spec.

My ZINN z753 a couple of days after I bought her in 1991 and 2012.

Great that you still have it and are using it.

Yes still riding it, had many bikes since i bought it, but it's the one i prefer to ride, even use it as my shopping bike.

LGF - you seem to have more than a passing knowledge of Cambridge shops from times past. Which one sold these - the blue colour was/is just beautiful.

I only bought a few bits from Mike's and Howes in the 90's, after that it was just a quick in and out. Never saw a Zinn but Howes had a red Pace Team up on the wall that I nearly (and should have) bought.
