1998 Dekerf Team ST, Soft tail, Large

I sent this frame back into Dekerf a few years (2-3?) ago for rear disc mounts, rebuild of the soft tail (similar to Moots YBB), and fresh paint (Guiness). Other than a little wear and tear on the paint the bike is in excellent shape. The workmanship is beautiful.
This hasn’t been my primary mountain bike for a long time now but I still ride it a few times a year. It’s a blast to ride…if not a reminder how far bikes have come. All the components are much more current than the frame. Shown here a little dirty…for you I’ll clean it.
