We study the cross section and the forward-backward asymmetry of e/sup +/e/sup -/..--> mu../sup +/..mu../sup -/ in the strongly coupled standard model, at energies appropriate for the colliders TRISTAN at KEK, the Stanford Linear Collider, and LEP at CERN (60--180 GeV). Constraints from low-energy measurements are used to calculate the expected deviations from the standard-model results, arising as contributions of excited W and isoscalar vector bosons. The experimental observability, especially at the Z pole, of these deviations is discussed.
