Out of interest, how tall are you and does the frame match perfectly?
It's good to know that the decals are available if a bike in need of restoration is ever listed.
Campagnolo Centaur is my choice of components for a Zinn.
I'm about 5'11" and it's ok for me. The reach could be a bit longer but it's definitely rideable.
I'll post up an image later of the decals I drew up so people can see them if they are interested.
My other Zinn is the Centaur model and has been restored with NOS Centaur components

I was £50 short in my paypal otherwise it would have been at least £282 or £283...
£285 would have done it
Had a quick ride this afternoon before starting the clean up.
The bike rides great. Very nimble on the fast single track (where there is less mud) and responsive on the climbs which is just how I like it. I still had the semi slicks on that it came with so it should be a bit more forgiving over the rough stuff once I get some grippier tyres on.
All in all I can't fault it!
I will post up updates when I start the tinkering.

Zinn Cycles in Colorado are still in business and building frames.
