Silverfish 1991 Funk

[Silverfish]

I need to pull it out of the rack and see what I think

But this might actually work…

Looks good. But I definitely think it would look better with the decal.

Absolutely agree. I’ll get one sorted with Gil

Was gonna go with silver Grafton brakes and cranks.
But not convinced on the silver levers with the ti Girvin.
So figured I'd try the Marinovative brakes.

WOW I think these look gorgeous on the FUNK.

I think I need to find some CQP titanium cranks now

 

[Silverfish]

I think finding a set of CQP titanium cranks might be a big ask

Maybe I stick with plan A and run the Grafton Joystix, Grafton re-entry levers and Grafton speed trap pedals. Strictly speaking they were all 92 but what’s a year?

Just feels a bit wrong to put all that Grafton stuff on it and then not spec Speed Controllers?

But the Marinovative Decelerator brakes look so awesome and I don’t really have another build they will work on.

What to do

 

[Silverfish]

**** it
I’m gonna go full Grafton

I’ll find another build that suits the Decelerators I’m sure…

 

[Silverfish]

Getting there
Just need the Speed Controllers, crank caps and fingers from John now
Fit chain and find some decals for the stem and then it’s done

 

[Silverfish]

Well it’s back in the rack
Think I should be able to finish this one soon

 

[Silverfish]

Stem looks awesome with the decal

But its the wrong sticker type for that stem and the line between the words was white/grey. Not black…

In general, the overall choice of parts is so weird here. It was SO very perfect when Richard Everington still owned it.

But hey, I guess its your bike now! Its your design…
