’97 Deluxe Singlespeed
Owner: Vincent Gest
From: California, USA
Paint: Matte Black
Comments: I decided to get an IF SS when I saw the Deluxe at Interbike 2000. This was a NOS 1997 frame still sitting at the IF fab shop. I’ve always been partial to matte paint finishes, but IF no longer offered matte black as a color option. It was fate that this particular frame was painted matte black before they dropped that color. I believe the chainstay & seatstay tubing is different than the current custom Nivacrom tubing used. She rides like no other and will stay in my possession until I die.
