The antlers on this bike reminds me of Larry "reaching for the bars" Osborn (and my own) need for a slightly more upright position in our old age.

Not exactly the solution we are looking for.

Hi Shelly: Well I don't know that much about Zeus in particular. The bike looks interesting enough. I have a feeling that this seller may not know anything about it either, judging on how they would have the photo taken with the handle bars in that manner. I spend more then my share of time on Ebay and I always had strong suspicions about these type of listings. It is one thing to know nothing about bikes, it is another thing to own a bike and not know nothing about them. Especially those "owners" of the upper end of classical/vintage bikes. I think you know what I mean. I also think that if you did the google dance and wait for this string with people who know more about this certainly than I do, you will find out what you need to know.....seeya good luck and Merry Xmas
