yes nice paint job ...but another forks like Funk would not be so bad ;) (but I know it is hard to find)
 
It will not in this color, I do not know yet how it will be but it will be a dress uniform.

For it will also fork with it is original because it is 1990, the beautiful fork Funk appeared rather 91 or 92 it seems :roll:
 
I do not know, can be the same color as my Pinnacle ie Ultra violet or blue as my Quantum, ice candy blue :facepalm: :roll: ;)
 
Looking forward to seeing another Funk develop.

Are there any markings on the forks that indicate they are Funk?

Cheers, Ash.
 
Very nice! That is the original fork, its exactly the same as the one that came on my Funk.

The one part that you may have a problem with is the front derailleur as the 1990 funk didn't have a cable stop on the seat tube. They used an additional stop in place of the derailleur cable clamp bolt and then bolted the cable to the BB, much like 1990 Yeti and Trek bikes.

Great find, looking forward to seeing this done!
 
I think the fork is a Spinner, I will check tomorrow. ;)

I found this little piece for the front derailleur, I should soon have :roll:
