    Silverfish 1987 Mountain Klein

    Unsure as to whether this guy still has or makes any decals but try sending him a message. Who knows someone else may help also.. keep us informed who offers you the best option.

    1991 ABM American (the American American)

    Borrowed from the German forum from someone otherwise very groovy/groove oriented ;), although these decals were original that shiny, the right size seems always a good idea when getting material, Maybe ABM did bigger decalsets though, like other companies today - who knows!

    1991 ABM American (the American American)

    1994 American Bicycle Manufacturer M16 build thread

    Cool, only sided note (albeit not drawback) would be tight rear clearance on some earlier m16 models which was also talked about when Norman build up the army ano concept - good that the frame has some serious give, a fatter tire with less side profile may work! 90s green would look different...
