".....one
of the best kept secrets among Dutch frame builders: the bikes made
by ZIELEMAN (pronounced: Zeel-a-man) in Amsterdam. Even in the
Netherlands only a few ageing cycling afficionadoes have heard about
him. It is the kind of exclusive bike a retired pro would ride when
no longer under sponsor obligations. These lugged steel bikes to my
mind have been on a par with all the Colnagos, Masis and Pinarellos
of this world for the past 30 years at least.
In an unassuming little workshop Zieleman still builds frames. RIH
and Zieleman are the only two (Amsterdam based) independent master
frame builders left in the Netherlands as far as I know who are
still in business."

Ko Zieleman has retired and is no longer building frames. |
