Awesome bike at a bargain price, especially converted to euro

I can confirm pullup info on not all Zielemans having the KZ-stamp and this also counts for frame numbers. Between the two of us (pulp and I) we have never seen two Zieleman bikes that were exactly the same. Each one is a custom made bike to personal preference and made the available parts (frame/lugs parts and or other parts). It is not unusual that a Zieleman has a mix-up on parts varying from Campy to Mafac to Shimano to Sugino to Suntour and so on.

One of my Zielemans has 531 decals, but a Columbus stamped steerer tube. Repaint or not? I don't know or care, cause that is typical for Zieleman. It rides like a dream!

Did I say someone should seize the opportunity to buy this perfect specimen? The colour is also very genuine for the Zielemans of the early nineties. I have seen a couple in this red and red&white decals and rainbow ribbons, but they were all 'blessed' with heavy patina. gfischman's one is in an exceptionally beautiful state.

Good luck with the sale!
