Rock Shox Judy SL and XC fork decals! NEW!
You are looking at a set of incredibly high-quality reproduction decals for your vintage Rock Shox Judy forks!
Like you, I had a vintage bike to restore, and the original decals on my Judy forks were toast! I wasn't happy. It was the one thing that kept my bike from being "perfect" again.
So I took it upon myself to rebuild, recreate, redesign, the original Rock Shox Judy decals. I'm a professional graphic designer, so I knew I could do it. After many, many hours of carefully measuring the original decals, scanning, fixing and tweaking, here is the final result. It's perfect. Even more perfect than the original decals ever were. They are the exact size of the originals. The perfect finishing touch.
Bring your tired, beaten forks back to life!
The decals are printed using the highest quality silk-screening techniques. Silkscreen printing is an incredibly high-end method with which to print stickers. As far as sticker printing goes, silkscreen is simply the best the way to produce an extremely high caliber, high quality sticker. Once you begin to understand the silkscreen process and see the results of the printing medium, you will quickly realize that in terms of quality, there is no contest.
Silkscreen printing is essentially a stenciling technique, where a design is imposed on a screen of silk or other fine mesh, with blank areas coated with an impermeable emulsion. Ink is forced through the mesh with a squeegee onto the printing surface, which in our case is an adhesive backed vinyl. The result is an extremely thick, weatherproof, waterproof sticker with an effective outdoor capability that is measured by years. (The outdoor capability of a digitally printed sticker of the same design is measured by weeks.)
These decals are clear, just like the originals.
The highest quality. Period.
Thick Ink. At least 2-3 times thicker than other silkscreen printers and 10x-20x thicker than digitally printed stickers...
100% UV Protection... Multiple Passes. Each full-color sticker is silkscreened onto a thick vinyl surface with 4 thick coats of ink, and 3 thick coats of clear gloss with 100% UV protection.
Weather proof and waterproof. Effective outdoor capability is 2000-3000% higher than Digital/Flexo materials.
Photo Realistic Printing.
Extreme durability. Minimum 3-5 year effective capability against any weather. Actual lifetime should be substantially higher since you aren't riding everyday! Extremely durable in extreme conditions (like mountain biking!). Silkscreen stickers are the only way to go if you are looking for durability
Decals will arrive in one single sheet. Just use an X-acto knife and a ruler to trim the decals. If you would like me to trim them for you, just leave me a note in the checkout form or eBay message me and I'll trim them for you. Either way, I will include detailed instructions for trimming the decals and application tips with all shipments!
