AAAAAAWesome!

That thing looks mint! Great build bro! Nothing says late 80's like a Zeronine! Rock on!

Great bike! Star Bars were my favorite when I was racing in the 80's. I went through a white phase in about 1985 myself. Yours would have been the envy of the track that year.

It cracks me up that everything except the Hutch part has held up very nicely. The only thing that lost its finish on my '84 GHP was my Hutch 2n1 stem brace. Draw your own conclusions...

Well since I cant find a ZERONINE bike to buy I might be selling those ZERONINE leathers after all. Can I show a photo of your bike in my store?

Cant stop drooling over this bike,havent heard of star bars or esp stems in a long long time.definitely one of my faves on this site

Your seatclamp has the same problems with the chrome as mine had. It was the cheap hi-caliber series from Hutch. Those were taiwanese parts they offered for an affordable price from ca.Â´86-88. Anyway, great bike you have there and rare as f***k.

That is a nice ZERONINE, I remember the plant in Hoffman Estates IL back in the 80s.....LOVE THE BIKE!!!!!!!!!!!

Great bike and super clean! I had one of the first prototypes made when I had co-sponsorship from them. I got my frame in time to put it together for a National.....only to find out in practice that the BB was too low, I kept scraping my pedals w 180mm cranks. The next frame was corrected and it was a sweet ride that I wish I never sold

I used to race one of these back in 1985/86 and it was a dog! Looked wicked though in black with the black race gear!
It was front heavy and nowhere near as nimble or quick as my previous ride which was a JMC shadow (I still have this bike but got rid of the Zeronine after one season!).
