Nice color, and pretty from a distance, but Zeus bikes always had a rep for being "in the French tradition": sound but not particularly pretty close-up. Can't follow the link to see any detail shots from work, so...

Another beauty from Stefan Schaefter in Switzerland. He really knows beauty and quality when he sees it. To see more, check out this link to an interview with him:
https://domestique.cc/2010/11/03/inte...speedbicycles/
And here's his website with more eye-candy:
https://www.speedbicycles.ch
BTW, Stefan currently owns more of my drillium than anyone else in the world; he bought his first piece from me off Ebay way back in 2007, so of course he knows quality

Where do you find rubber brake lever hoods for that thing?

my name is Jim
Yep, it's a gorgeous resto job. And LOVE those 2000 brakes, especially the QR setup in the levers. I bought a pair BITD, but never used 'em. Wish I still had 'em. (And just to be cranky, the closeups just confirm what I originally said - the frame is very crudely made: lots of gaps in the brazing and minimal/no cleanup work on the lugs. Not to say that it's not perfectly serviceable, but...)

His goods remain top notch and always show almost perfect presentation. As of today, I would however not necessarily take all of his descriptions as being gospel. By all means do continue to ogle and buy his highly worthy items, but do study up on the items before you bid and make sure you know what you are buying.
