These frames could also have been made by Razesa. I think Baron & the Gang had a number of these, some labeled as Zeus and some as Razesa, maybe some without labels.

Zeus lugs and crowns were not exclusive to Zeus bikes, however, Colnago (and TREK) lugs and crowns were exclusive to those brands of bikes.

Raleigh used a lot of zeus frame parts in the late 60's and early 70's, and I have seen several Zeus crowns for sale, either on ebay or at least, in the possession of a photo-forum for a framebuilder or two.

So it's not surprising to find a fork made with a zeus crown and a campagnolo dropout, just about any custom builder could have made it.
