Are there any Zunow owners out there? I'd been shopping for a 3Rensho (among other things) but spotted a Zunow on eBay and decided to grab it so that I'd have an interesting Japanese frame in the collection. The frame & fork arrived this week and I'm debating how to build it up. I assume it is an early 80's frame or else I could not be discussing it on this list! It came with a Dura Ace headset and may have been built up with that groupset. However the catalog shown on the CR web site shows it built up with a C-Record group. Since the webmaster posted that photo and describes it as early 80's I guess this must be on-topic.

Does anyone know how these were normally outfitted? I'd prefer the C-Record group, without the hideous pantographing shown in the catalog.

Here's the link to the auction:
