De Kerf Generation 17.5"

Hi all.

For sale is my De Kerf Generation.

I bought the frame new from Recycle in 1998, but it could well be a 1997 frame. It is one of the Tange Prestige frames with Ritchey dropouts.

Pictures at the link below.. If anyone is interested I will put up some more detailed photos.

Spec as follows:

Dekerf Generation frame 1997/8 - 17.5"
Fox F90 forks (travel can be adjusted)
XTR M952 V-brake on rear
Hope Mini disc brake on front
XT rear mech
XT front mech
XT Hollowtech II chainset
XT shifters - 9 speed
Avid V-brake lever (rear)
Ibis titanium handlebar
Ringle stem 130mm
Chris King No Threadset
Race Face XY seatpost
WTB SST saddle (the original one, now rare - well worn but very comfy!)

Hope Pro 2 disc hubs on Mavic 517 back , 717 front (Harry Rowland built with v. low mileage)
Conti X King / Maxxis Crossmark tyres
No pedals but will throw in a pump for the forks


Condition is above average for the age. The paint on the frame is worn in places and the decals have been worn away in a couple of places. No rust, no dents.

Note: I can't vouch for the rebound control on the forks as it has never seemed to do much since I have owned the forks. However otherwise the fork works well.

Looking for £800 ono plus postage.

I will consider splitting if no interest.

Hi.

I'm 6' with long legs! I'm in Surrey.

Schwartzy16 has first refusal on the frame although I have not set or discussed a price yet.

I've had no interest in the whole build so i'm going to strip it tonight and get some photos up tomorrow / Thursday along with a price for the frame and everything else.
 
Mike was first, you were 2nd.

I am interested in the frame if you do decide to split.

Thanks
