Take the Delromi Challenge

I'm in the market for a vintage road bike but it's a bit difficult as I'm 6'4" and there's not much out there for me. I was looking for Japanese frame like Lotus, Fuji, etc. But I came across this curious bike on Etsy. The manufacturer is a company called Delromi. Search as I might, there's virtually nothing about this company in Google. Just about three image results which is so rare.

Does anyone here know anything about this bike?

I saw a couple old threads but they didn’t seem especially useful.
Try a google search ‘bikeforums tall frames’. There are several threads that might point to good frames to put on your list.

Thanks. I'm more interested though if anyone has ever heard of Delromi bicycles. Virtually nothing online.

There's another BF thread about them, also with little info except made in Belgium: https://www.bikeforums.net/classic-v...-bicycles.html
Looking at Etsy/Ebay, no, the bike is not worth what they're asking.

As a kid in the early 70"s I had a Delormi Ten Speed- no clue to a specific model. The bike was made in Japan.

Mine was stolen since way back when and Ive looked for that bike in all my travels.

I found one in New Jersey, appears to be mid-70's - all is intact- restoring back to 100%.
