[MacDaddy]

WOW!! that blue Zini with S/Record is a stunner... well done!!

[HeartCoppi]

It looks like a Peugeot

[HeartCoppi]

The yellow Zini is lovely.

Like the chrome especially on the dropouts and the deep round bars (sakae?)

and needless to say: the cranks are very sexy.

[MTB0007]

[HeartCoppi]

Yes, thats Tange CrMo tubing.

Peugeot Classique came out in a Tange 2 tubeset..... I remember purving over them when I was a laaitie

Thanks HC, bars are old logo, Cinelli, Giro d'Italia bars

Hansom or Du Toit did build Zini's locally. Might have been under licence. I am not sure.

These seem to be earlier italian built frames - with campy dropouts

[HeartCoppi]

Mr Gotti Hansen made the SA Zini.

Saw this in a bikeshop in Den Haag in April. Still kicking myself for not asking if it was for sale. At the time it seemed like too much of a mission to try get it home. Most beautiful roadbike I have ever seen in my life. The pic does not do justice to the paint or the condition.

 

edit: It was my size too
