http://www.mtb-news.de/forum/showthread.php?t=144465&page=107

Zitat von Catsoft
Moin!

DeKerf SSP 19,5" Bj. 2000 wg. falscher Rh. zu verkaufen. Der Lack ist in schlechtem Zustand, die Substanz des Rahmens ist gut. Kleine Delle am UR nähe Tretlager. (siehe Bild! Du siehst nix? Eben, so klein ist die ) Dafür keinerlei Chainsuck!

Preis: € 350,-- inkl. Versand in D

I don't think it's a 2000. The serial number puts it later.
My '00 ST has serial no DEK1965, and '01 Solitaire is DEK2100 or so.
2002 is probably right.
EDIT: You could be right- I've just been to check, and my Solitaire is DEK 2304, so '00/'01 is right!

I really wish I had kept mine, they are steller bikes but I never took it out after I switched to 29ers.
Yours looks great but I do agree that that looks like BIG gearing.:)

Very nice, that yellow is a wicked colour!

Gearing does look massive...must be good for 25/30mph on the flat!

the gearing is 42/16, really nice for urban/dirt roads but really not that useable for offroad

im having some problems whit the XTR brakes so fore the moment thy are swap for a set of red DX' while im looking for some nice avids, might be som ultimate or Ti' (i have a set of arch supreme but i think thy are a looking littel overkill)
