Has anyone got a look kg 171 like the one in the pic? I'm restoring one that was painted over and has lost it's decals, I'm trying to get some close up pics of the decals with a ruler to replicate them?

Sorry, wish I had one to help you.

 

Have a 231, but decals are different.

 

But to help you in your search:

1995 – Laurent Jalabert wins the Tour of Spain on board his LOOK171

1998 – The LOOK KG171 wins bike of the year in France

 

It's a classic, so there must be info out there, if not someone reproducing decals.

[HeyYou]

Anyone have a mid to late 70s ZEUS track bike?

 

I'm looking for pics of the decals, with sizes, to have some made up.

[Loose cog]

I am a buyer if anyone has one!!!!

 

Here's hoping its my lucky day.

[Fat Boab]

I have the same saddle; not that it helps the decal/bike search of course....

I have a full set of Zeus Decals for a Road Bike, I can scan them for you if you like?

[Spirog]

lusting!!!

[HeyYou]

Lucky enough to have bought this very set a couple of years ago, when the Rand / Euro was a little more reasonable!!!!

I already posted this beaut under the bike porn but believe this is actually the correct section.

 

I was given this stunning Bridgestone Radac by my brother in law yesterday. It runs Walber wheels and full Dura Ace with 1st generation Sti.

 

Once i put in new tubes tonight and someflat pedals I can take her for a spin.

Hey ren8gor

 

Thankfully I am a kortgat so the seat is now way down. Took her for a spin last night, she runs smooth ! Will bag her tonight so I can ride her from Gautrain station to work tomorrow and test her properly.
