That is such a sweet frame. Though, I am not really feeling the white Bullseyes. IMO

That picture was a year ago and I have since then sold the Bullseye crank, so even though I didn't mind it I decided to go in a different direction. It probably be a Cook Bros crank even though I'm not completely sold on that one either.

That would be sweet.
 
I found some lime green shimano cable housing on ebay and I'm kind of contemplating buying it and installing on this frame. I drew some lime green lines on the picture to see if it looks ok. What do you think? hideous or not?

Personally, no, black or white I suggest. The colours of the frame are so strong I think strong coloured cables will be too much and distract from their glory slightly :cool:
 
Let the frame do the talking David ! You could try white to match up with the decals but black will probably look best. Its upto you though if you fancy doing something different.
 
I think you could get away with white outers. You should redraw it and leave the bits where the inner cable shows blank. It won't detract from the paint job.

I have a soft spot for Funks. Especially Funks with Fat forks :D

Good luck with it, looking forward to seeing this progress.

Here's my vote: :cool:
I say Dare to be Different. Don't go with the status quo if you want to stand out from the crowd.

Maybe even a neon green rear tire to accentuate the elevated chainstays? (keep the front tire black, though).

Maybe some green brake shoes for the rear? (again, keep the front ones black).

All that green highlights the power going to the rear wheel.

I found an beat up control tech seatpost and ringle seat skewer. Both were being produced in 1992 so they are time appropriate.
