    Silverfish 1993 Fat Chance Ti

    I’m starting to think those Decelerators need a 91 Merlin Elevator to hang off…

    Silverfish 1993 Fat Chance Ti

    Depends if I decide to wait for a black Moby post and a Zooka stem 😳 I like a FAT with Ringle on it. I also still need to decide whether to switch the brakes out to the Decelerators or some Soeed Controllers or Stoplights. Whether to switch the rings to silver. And I’d really like to find my...

    Silverfish 1993 Fat Chance Ti

    Cook’s BB looks awesome on there but might be a tad long. Hard to know for sure because I can’t set up the front mech as the front XTR pod needs a rebuild - it’s got that classic sticky lever going on 🤦‍♂️ I might also switch out the rings to silver as well - add a bit of contrast.

    Silverfish 1993 Fat Chance Ti

    Thank you I think I’ll keep the ti post tho. And run a black stem with the ti bar. Assuming I can find a black Ringle. Feels like that won’t be easy…

    Silverfish 1993 Fat Chance Ti

    Wanted to try the Cook’s cranks on the Fat Ti. Figured I had a Cook’s 127mm BB that I could try - probably a bit long for RSR’s on a 68mm shell but worth a shot. Bought this BB recently but was sat in a box earmarked for the ARC. One of the bearing covers is cracked and the other one is...

    Frame failure experiences

    I remember selling a pair of Bullet Bros Zzyzx forks to Nige at John Atkins circa 96!97 and he rang me to ask if the forks would work on a super lightweight full carbon Trek OCLV hardtail. I said absolutely not, I was pretty sure it would void his warranty. The guy who wanted them didn’t care...

    Silverfish 1993 Fat Chance Ti

    Switched out the King Gripnut in silver for a black one tonight, and temporarily fitted the toothpicks off a donor Fat. Not tried the Decelerator brakes yet but the black definitely looks classy. Not completely sure it’s just a bit boring 🤣 For me 93 and 94 was all about the bling! 🤣🤣🤣

    Silverfish 1993 Fat Chance Ti

    It definitely looks cleaner. I think I’d need an IRD titanium fork and that will be bonkers spendy - so I’m thinking I just learn to live with the silver bit messing up my OCD 🤣

    Silverfish 1993 Fat Chance Ti

    Thank you It’s definitely the same bike yes 👍 Although it’s starting to look a little different already. Not much different, just some little tweaks. I’m not sure I can bring myself to remove the McMahon bars and stem. As much as I want to put a Ringle on there, the colours on the McMahon...

    Silverfish 1993 Fat Chance Ti

    I’m thinking this bike might be just the right build to use my titanium Marinovative Decelerators on? Maybe they’re a little early for a 93 though? I might have a play later…

    Silverfish 1993 Fat Chance Ti

    That’s the way they came out of the factory and they didn’t try and colour match the titanium. Not really sure why they didn’t, I guess it’s because it’s hard to colour match raw brushed titanium with paint? I’m not sure I like it either - would look so much cleaner with a brushed ti fork. Or...
