35 years of vsf fahrradmanufaktur.
The anniversary bicycle T-1987.
A limited-edition exclusive.

One model for each year: in a meticulous homage to our manufacturing philosophy and the special relationship we have always had with steel as a material for our frames, on the 35th anniversary of vsf fahrradmanufaktur we present an exclusive trekking model in a limited edition of just 35. In cooperation with an expert maker of exclusive steel frames, we have brought this unique, hand-made model into being, naming it based on the year vsf fahrradmanufaktur was founded:  T-1987.

As befits such a special frame, tradition and the values of vsf fahrradmanufaktur were the inspiration – including the careful selection of the highest-quality components and fittings: durability, sustainability, comfort and quality. The result should quicken the pulse, and not just of fans of steel frames – for the limited special model T-1987 is a peak-performance trekking bicycle in every respect:

Rohloff Speedhub 14-gear

Gates Carbon Drive 

Shimano XT 4-piston brake 

Supernova LED-lightning (front/rear) 

Humpert Ergotec Cockpit & Skalar seat post 

Brooks Cambium saddle & Brooks grips 

Tubus Logo Evo pannier rack & Tubus Tara front rack

 

 

35 years of steel frames.

The core of the limited-edition T-1987 is a steel frame, hand-made in Germany to the most exacting standards. The material chosen can be shaped perfectly and offers outstanding welding properties: the ideal prerequisites for an anniversary edition which, in the best traditions of vsf fahrradmanufaktur, is not only slender and elegant but also highly resilient. The frame offers particular comfort on the road, with no front or seat suspension being necessary.

Fillet brazed –
the finest handicraft .

Unlike those of mass-produced bikes, the T-1987’s frame joins are laboriously fillet brazed using a brass filler. Using this process, experienced frame-builders can create particularly harmonious, smooth, almost seamless connections – a feast for the eyes of anyone who loves a steel frame. 

T-1987 Rosso glänzend

Rosso glossy. A special colour.

To emphasise the special nature of the limited frame, we present the anniversary model T-1987 in a new, exclusive paint colour: Rosso. This special-effect paint, appearing gracefully reserved on first glance, reveals its special gloss only on a closer look, or when the sunlight glances off it.

Rohloff Speedhub.

True cycling enjoyment and reliable gear-changing performance: 14 true gears, an enormous transmission range of 526 % and linear gear gradations of 13.6 %. This hub gear offers incomparable Rohloff reliability and is enormously undemanding where servicing and maintenance are concerned. All this mechanical marvel needs is a little oil from time to time.
