ZUNOW Beradonna 650c

I thought I'd show this off. Bought it a while ago. It's a little ripper and, in my view, beautiful with it.

Zunow, wow .. master Japanese frame builder with the trade mark mono stay. Unusual in 650 and rare in Blighty. I had an opportunity to buy one at the Bangkok bike Jumble a few years back and I'm still kicking myself. Wish I got it and packed it as hold baggage..

I've ridden all over northern Thailand and beyond on my trusty Honda Wave 110cc but the 2 HR ride into Bangkok did scare me. I rode in on Friday afternoon to be ready for the monthly Saturday morning Jumble and what a buzz, waiting to cross the Chao Phraya river at the lights surrounded by 100 motorbikes.. a city on two wheels works.. fxxk the plug in cars..

That sounds like a lot of fun. I used to ride a bike round Delhi when i lived there - after a while you sort of tune in to the chaos.

Here are a few more shots of little Zunow.

Thanks for posting more pictures, Zunow attention to detail is amazing, the more I look the more I see..

 

[wynne]

You're very welcome. As well as the skill that has gone into the detail i get a real sense of the maker's joy and humour from it.

Beautiful monostay and seat tube lug. Interesting shift/deraileur combination as well, is it 9 speed?

 

[wynne]

Ten speed. Campag 10 speed and Sram 10 speed mtb mechs play happily together meaning you can run a wider cassette.

Love those details, unique lugs and the winged emblem is
