Dekerf

The Dekerf has nice details like the fork dropouts which turn out to be Campagnolo.

Happy riding - I am jealous!

And it looks like you're putting Campagnolo hubs in them, which are activating their magical powers.

This is how I've got it set up right now.



Most parts were good on it but I had to find new hoods and then rewrapped the bars.





Old Suntour Sprint parts are in pristine shape.





How it looked when I picked it up. Gummed up components, rotted hoods, funky saddle, dry rotted tires, and those fugly aero bars.


OK only a year late to the party on this; just love the paint job on this. It cleaned up very, very nicely.
