hi,
i finally want to make Zeus and Reynolds 531 decals for this frame. For the Reynolds decals i need to know the approixmate year. Do you guys know when this Zeus Pista frame was built?

Thx, Peter

i have on but i dont know if it is a 2001 ..
the seatpost could also be 2000 as seen on this catalog page..

Hi all, Hi @BigH

.. selling these zeus parts reminded me of my Zeus project.
so i searched for the box and mounted the parts quickly, to see how it works out so far.
in order to see what decals i should use i printed out some decals on paper and attached them with tape.
i also thought about repainting the frame but this would require quite some hard decisions regarding color, type of paint and budget..
i have some some questions, maybe you can help me..

1. i still don't know out if the blue paint is the orginal paint. based on the pics what would you say?
   
2. what decals would fit era-wise?
   
3. which color would you choose if you had to?
   
   

Thx and reagrds from Berlin ;)

@Lupogti

can you post prices for the Razesa frames and Zeus parts?

here what i'll get in the next week, yipeeee

http://www.rennrad-news.de/forum/attachments/zeus-teile-002-jpg.134324/

If anyone's interested I came across this apparently NOS 531 Razesa road frame the other day, looks legit. ..Pretty rare to find Chromovelato in NOS condition & in green to boot! wish it was my size ..

loving this thread by the way :)

green cromovelato ...hmmmmm

your are right. this looks great and the price is very good.
i am not sure that the 52 cm is correct .. somehow it looks bigger..or maybe i want it to be bigger. as always..

The clear decals with the white letters would look good on a light coloured frame without the chrome forks. Then maybe the ones with the shiny chrome background with a frame with chrome forks.

these decals are mainly used on more modern frames I think

Its probably not worth the time to try and make your own decals unless your really good with photoshop and illustrator etc. there are plenty available to order online of good standard.
What size seatpost does your frame take? Is it light? the details make me think its of a higher build quality.

thx for posting the links.
i don't really like the silver decals. i probably go with the single letter decals.
here in Berlin, there are some stores which do decals and painting. i may go to velociao.com
here is a example of a restored masi pista he did
http://www.velociao.com/2013/masi-pista/

the seatpost size of my Zeus frame is 27,0
its quite light, i don't know the precise weight, though.

here are some details..
the first two decals are simple tests with paper

first i thought about the old decals with the rounded background. and as i see on one of the Zeus pista in the catalog you posted it is used.
but i now tend to using (buying / making myself) the Zeus Letters iwht outline but no background as in the other jpgs.

i dont even know what tapy of tubing the frame has.. may it is also 531.. ??

hi, i am thinking about letting my Zeus frame repaint.
now i wonder about the color. i was looking for examples on the web.
i tend to orange. do you have any recommendation regaring original color used at the time?
i guess my pista frame is from the 70ties..

the first blue one is mine the rest are examples

haha..
My pista crankset came also with only 4x Zeus and 1x Campagnolo screws.

I found in the last couple of weeks
a Zeus seatpost, micro fluted, and a size that fits..27,0 mm

a Arius Pista Saddle, shipped from New Jersey..!!!

another Pista Saddle, not sure which company though

Zeus Front Wheel (World Logo, and squarish font)
is think its from a Roadbike

Hi,

here is my Pista build.
It is based on a frame by Radsport Adam.
Radsport Adam is a bicycle store in Cologne, Germany (which was initially called Radsport Schmidt).

hope you like it.
this spring i will change a few details. i'll upload more pics ..

Hey,

Here is my Zeus Pista Project: LINK
It's quite similar to yours.. my aim was to get a complete Zeus or at least a full spanish build.

until now i have

• Zeus Pista Frame 53 c-c
  
• Zeus Seatpost (i dont know which group it is)
  
• Zeus Pista Cranck
  
• Zeus Pista BB
  
• Zeus Pedals (i am not sure if its Pista though)
  
• Zeus Headset (i think its 2000??)
  
• Arius Pista Saddle
  
  

i am still looking for

• Zeus Pista hubs/wheels
  
• Stem / Handlebar
  
• i tried to to some decals myself (vectorizing based on JPG-pictures).. i am not sure which type has been used on thos frames..i dont even know which year it has been built-..
  
  

best regards from Berlin,

Peter

Thank you all!

Did you go to his store?
Unfortunately the present owner of Willi Müllers store does not know much about the one i have.
I sent him some pictures, but he didn't have any additional information about it.
