Thanks! I use a Shadow Stand, a triangular, thin piece of hard Perspex that supports the bike under the bottom bracket

I think I found these images before in my search for build inspiration. Love your bike:)

I’ll have a go this month. Just finished putting together my 94 Dekerf. Build thread here; https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/1994-dekerf.480141/ Markjohnson76 1994 Dekerf

A few more

Anyway, yesterday I finally had a clear window to put it all together. I really wanted to use a threaded headset and quill stem so had to cut down a steerer I had. I did it quite poorly so it took a while to get the headset on. I’d had some red middleburn and Ringle skewers so knew I wanted to...

Then life got in the way a bit and I could only grab a little time here and there to clean the frame and test forks. The mag 21 seemed too short. I used to have some metallic ‘red wine’ colour marzocchi Z2 so I sourced another set and the colour was a really close match with the frame.

So it’s a 94 frame and painted in a 97ish colour. Wonder how that came about? Anyway it’s an early one and I was even more excited to build it up.

Chris Dekerf replied almost immediately! What a great bloke. Here’s what he had to say; Hello Mark. DEK242 Dekerf "mountain". It officially had no model name but was often called a 'Mountain'. So your frame would have been repainted at some point and given an incorrect model decal. Completed...

It’s an 18” so my perfect size. I wasn’t sure what year but with the cable stops for cantis I guessed pre 96. The frame has a few marks but it’s solid and straight. The parts were useable but I knew I’d like it to be a period correct ish XTR/syncros build. I’d not known a huge amount about...

Thought I’d make a little build/find thread for my 1994 Dekerf Mountain. I found on eBay listed as a Dekurf so it was a bit of a fat-finger spelling mistake bargain. It was located only a mile or two from my parents place in Dorset and it ended on a weekend while I was down there so it was...

Thanks for your help. It's weird, there's no markings at all on my BB shell even under the cable guides. Nothing on the stays or head tube either.

Aw some! Just found it, thanks so much for uploading that. One more question, where are the frame numbers usually on this era Norco? Nothing at all on the frame I have, or at least I can’t find it

Hi! don’t suppose you have a scan of the 1994 Norco TNT details from the catalogue do you? I found a 94 TNT a while back here in the uk and would love to know more about it and how it was specced. Was it the top of the range steel? Any help appreciated, thanks!
