Are you the same Jeroen from the Dekerf site? If it is a Blizzard you're getting, it could well be a Dekerf build. The serial number on the frame could be telling. Now you've got me anxious to see, too. Keep me informed :)

This is my first Rocky, the Avalanche. It'll go to my grave with me. They had to change the name to Equipe as GT already had rights to the name Avalanche in the USA.

I checked mine and my old room-mate's stashes for a catalogue when this came up before, but I'm sorry, we don't have that year.

Here is a bit of the 1988 brochure, the resolution is a bit low 'cos I had to resize it to upload it. Interesting that the Blizzard was offered with the optional non-sloping top tube configuration. Now THAT would be a rare find. The Wedge was the bike porn of its day. I would have killed...

Jeroen, what kinds of details are you looking for? I'll help as much as I can, I've been riding Rockys since 1988. The info on them prior to that is indeed hard to find. '88 was probably the year they truly blossomed as a company. I have an old item or 2 to scan and put on the Rocky...

Hopefully I have sufficient old school content to satisfy the site's reqs. :) I'll put something up in the bikes section when I get a couple of good shots. Composition is not my strong suit. Plus, I got the bike dirty already. :roll:

1800 euros? The seller must be on crack. You're right, you can get a brand new Dekerf titanium for those numbers.

In talking with Chris Dekerf, I think he was feeling genuinely dejected back in autumn. He had about 50 tube sets left, was going to make them and call it a game. It sounded like the only ones making any money off the bikes were the bike dealers. They were not doing their part by, say...

anyone care to venture how many thousands it'll go for? http://cgi.ebay.de/Retro-KULT-Oberhamme ... otohosting

I got in line quickly and took delivery of my Dekerf near the beginning of the new year. This is a photo of the paint curing booth at the Dekerf shop. Mine is the tangerine coloured one in front, set up for cantis, not discs. I'll be using as much 'steel' as I can in the build, e.g., Prestige...

I'm not normally a purple kind of guy, but this is pretty choice. Thanks for sharing, kingroon.

BTW, to any potential US buyers, this should be duty exempt as it is a NAFTA built item. Hopefully the shipping from Canada to the US is not as bad a hose job as Canada to UK.

This topic came up on another string. Think of the money you can save doing it yourself! (Or should I say pennywise, pound foolish?) http://astro.neutral.org/anodise.shtml

Jez, you may want to get in touch with this fellow, realising that the shipping from here to UK is pretty brutal. http://vancouver.craigslist.org/bik/222010779.html
