Hi all,

I joined the list last year, and at that time posted that I was looking for a classic, lugged steel racing frame to complement my Rivendell Rambouillet. I am short (5 feet 6 inches) so it took a while to find a frame, but I had the good fortune to have the owner of a local bike store call me about a frame he found in the store's basement. Evidently, a customer purchased it approximately 10 years ago, used it once and decided to trade it in for a lighter model. The frame sat in the store's basement until the owner found it and gave me a call.

He thought it was a 1997 Carrera Zeus, but a search on the Internet shows it to be a Carrera Andromeda (see link below) based on the paint scheme shown in the photo.

Would anyone on the list know how it differs from the Zeus, shown below (other than the paint scheme)? http://www.rideclip.com/images/zeusredwht_small.jpg

Would anyone on the list know where I can find more information about the model?

Thanks for your time.
