Old School Grand Master
Sadly up for sale is my '94 Dekerf. It's a size 18.5" with a 22" top tube, and is constructed from Ritchey Logic supertubing. I'm 6'1" and have always denied that this is actually just too small for me. Reality has struck, however, and due to recent surgery, I need something a lot taller at the font with nice bouncy forks and fat tyres.
So this is up for sale for the princely sum of £225, delivered, for frame and triple butted 415mm P2 forks.
It is a truly awesome comination. There is nothing- nothing- quicker through the twistys than this.
Why so cheap? Well , I bought this frame about a year ago, and on stripping it down discovered a couple of very nasty dents, resulting in a new top tube being fitted by Bob Jackson Cycles of Leeds. They also resprayed it in bright yellow and applied the incorrect decals. The decals claim it to be a Team SL, but it is not. BJ also refitted the cable stops in the wrong places, and weren't too tidy with their brazing. South London's finest frame builder described it as "a bit rough, but perfectly sound".
And so it is! Alignment is perfect, and the legendary ride is undiminished.
It has mainly been built up as a singlespeed, and only used on dry days. It has been treated with waxoil, and there is no evidence of internal rust
There are the odd cable rubs, pics of which later.
