Saw this one and since the guy is an antique flipper the guy put a description based in the decals? :) So what it is???

Looks like was modified aswell... and with the super close ups, well no comments :D

Hmmm, that could be anything. What caught my eye was the Zeus crank and FD, because I have a full Zeus bike that I am planning to sell in the spring. It would be interesting to see the brand of the dropouts - if they are Zeus it might be a Zeus frame as well. Otherwise it is such a mishmash of parts it is hard to tell. I think he is asking a lot for a bike like that.

Way too much money imo, for what is essentially a frankenbike. The terrible pics don't help either.

there are Zeus collectors, bless their hearts.

That's the kind of bike you list for $350 and hope to get $200. Unless the frame is more special than I think it is.

Those tank like top tube guides should identify it to someone. Unfortunately those of us that surf eBay on a regular basis are gonna be looking at that one a long time because it’s worth at most $150.

Its not worth the shipping cost in my book.

I wouldn't touch it. The seller is shouting (in all caps) in his description and the composition is very poor. I don't care how nice the bike may be; the transaction may be a horror show.

It's the color scheme of an early 80's Raleigh Gran Sport, but it would have had a metal head badge. I agree it could be anything.

I have no idea what it is, but it's no Zeus, I have a nearly original Zeus, and it's nothing like this bike.

"BOTH WHEELS SPIN STRAIT ONE BROKEN SPOKE"

not sure how to reconcile that statement ;-)

Look at the guy's other auctions - it is clear he is not a bike guy but some sort of antique flogger.

It is old and maybe valuable :D did you see those thousand of dollars paintings?

Scoff at the price all you want but for me the SHIMANO DURA ACE JAPAN BRAKES alone are worth it.
