The components are Zeus Criterium/ Grand Sport, with Super Alfa CP brakes. This stuff was, I believe, available throughout most or all of the 70's and some of it on into the 80's. Frame and decals look like early to mid 70's to me. I see nothing there to contradict either a 1974 or 1976 date.

Have a look at the following if you have a minute (or more):

I've tentatively dated it as a '74 but I wonder if anyone with more Zeus knowledge could determine anything more specific. The person I purchased it from said he thought it was from ~'76 but wasn't sure.

Can anyone help?

Thanks,

David
