I turned a DeKerf in to a 650b disc braked “gravel” type bike a few years ago. It looked great, rode great and was completely fit for purpose. It didn’t hurt anyone and if it gets an old frame out there being ridden then we should all support and applaud that.
I’m as guilty as anyone on here of building up perfect representations of the perfect “bitd” build spec but the problem is they become to precious to actually ride
My only reservation is whether the powder coat is hiding any cracks and, obviously, the price is more than the sum of the parts.
