So after trying to fit FSA, IS-8, Campy, etc. Nothing fits this frame except the ICBM. Called Cane Creek. They have a bunch of ICBM in stock. I picked up a couple.
Hi Eric,
Yes I rode the bike for a season the way you sold it to me but over time I bought other components on ebay to rebuild the bike.
Including a 9 speed conversion with derailleur, 9 speed chain, cassette, and shifter. The CrossMax ST wheels was the last piece of the puzzle to rebuild the ride. My local bike shop had a heck of a time trying to mount the Schwalbe tires on the rims. Took 2 of them 4 hours until I called Schwalbe and they explained to them what to do. BTW Schwalbe has excellent customer service. They actually pick up the phone and talk to you right away. No machine.
I designed it myself on my computer and then printed it out on sticker decal paper. If you need the artwork just let me know.
Sure thing man check your inbox for the artwork.
I don’t have any more printed out. So you will have to find a spot to re-print them.
I couldn’t find any either so I opened adobe illustrator and resigned the decals from scratch true to the original. 2001. Then went to a fastsigns place and the printed them out in decal vinyl sticker paper.
I think printing them out is true to the spirit of growing your own tomato bike.
If anyone would like to get the digital vector homegrown artwork then send me a PM.
tomatoes are messy: I asked for it and here it is.2000 Homegrown Red Frame used from ebay: ready to restore tomatoI scored a red homegrown frame on ebay with a few scratches. For it’s 10 year anniversary I’m going to restore it to it’s full XTR glory with a shiny new paint job. Also, the decals I’m going to design myself. The 2000 decals are not terribly difficult to re-create in a graphic design program. Also, I know a place that can print them for me for cheap.
