And the actual 98 Judy I will use will match slightly better. This pair I’ve pictured above are from my LTS. But the pair I will use are away being painted - but have slightly modified decals to move away from the olive colour to a orange/gold

I’m always careful with colour matching bits. As unless they are painted at the same time it’s unlikely to be identical and then just looks off. Also back in the 90s (and now ) not many people had forks painted. We all just colour clashed everything didn’t we As mentioned I also have spare...

Yeh can’t break the + - 1 year rule. Usually I wouldn’t colour clash green & blue but I quite like it. I think with black wheels / bits it’ll look good. I’ve actually got a spare pair of 98 Sid lowers which I’m considering having painted black (or green) for this bike. The orange one has a...

I already sold it after discovering the crack. I’m still kinda after a STS 1 which is close to OE spec. But I would never pay the insane prices asked for them when likely they are cracked too. I’ll wait got a local bargain to come at £200 ish

To be fair I’m likely better getting opinions before I splurge so ….. Option 1 - Gloss white with blue 96 decals Option 2 - Candy red with 96 decals but in silver/grey The bits I’ve gathered so far are Atac stem in silver (or a silver Syncros ) Hyperlite bars in silver Controltech post...

Issue with option 1 is the colour clashes with some components I’ve got ready 😂 But yes I do agree I’d like to have OE decals but want to avoid having to source or paint new bits

I’ve also got some middleburn rings for them which I’m sure I could include if you twist my arm 😂

Yeh if I go colour choice no1 I will use the OE blue decals. If I go No2 it’ll be a coin flip between OE blue or silver

Yeh I really like the colour. But the decals being incorrect annoy my ocd and also it’s a bit tatty for me. I was tempted to have the same colour again and just have the corrrext decals this time

I miss owning a bike now summer is almost here again. I keep looking ….

More importantly —— who pulled the prior cable out without considering having to put a new one in?

Piece of cotton and a hoover is all you need. I’ve done loads like it.
