Hi,
Recently bought this on here but, as is usual for Retrobike, too many projects came along at once and I'm also working on my own secret squirrel fillet brazed frame project at the moment! That said I got to ride a Zinn, the bike of my childhood dreams and it is lovely.
Currently I've swapped out the bars for some 501s, not jeans...they steer terribly!, as the 753s could do with a refurb and some red anodised Lizard tri-aligns which look lovely on it IMO.
All the original Classic brakes are included as are the 753 bars but can remove the new parts if not required.
Slight ding on the top tube but only minor and could easily be worked out by a frame builder with blocks if so desired. I know one in Sheffield if anyone wants me to enquire.
Original sale thread...
viewtopic.php?f=2&t=403896&p=2973428&hilit=+Zinn#p2973428
Now sold to Corduroyboy.
Currently waiting to hear back from two guys who had dibs on the bike after me in the original sale but register interest on here and I'll update their responses.
Ideally collected from Sheffield.
Pics with the new parts up later.
