Hi folks,

I have got my hands on an old cove handjob 2006 which I have decided to bring back to life however I can’t seem to get in contact with anyone who used to supply them nor can I seem to find any vectors etc.

Does anyone happen to have any files or know anywhere that’ll knock me some up?

Any help is massively appreciated as I’m at a loss.

They are probably your best bet but postage will be high!

I emailed them about 4 weeks ago however no luck, they seem to have been open as usual though looking at their Instagram.

I’ll try again this week!

I had a customers bike in with Cove decals from Slik, might be worth contacting them even if they are not listed?

Can you not find a picture, print it on photo paper and then stick it to your bike with gorilla tape?

Bigyan, yeah I noticed there was old ads from slik showing their cove decal packs however I tried to get in contact a few weeks ago but heard nothing back from them.

I’ll send them another email

Silverfish were the UK importers, they may have old stock?

I've got 2 HJ frames here - let me know if I can help.

Have you got the original model with the skinny, delicate, bendable tubes?

Thanks guys! I managed to get sorted!

I appreciate your help!

Jeff, yeah I do it’s 2006 (doesn’t have the bottle opener which is a shame) but yeah it’s got the Columbus Zona tubing which is super thin

I have an original round tube 'iffee' in the loft that I was thinking of building up again, please don't ask about the stem as I only used it to build it up whilst waiting for a super short 90mm one 😉

it would be nice to have a proper Stiffee again though, who sorted you out the decals in the end?

Cheers.

Sorry for taking so long to get back to you I forgot to check the thread.

I ended up finding some on eBay (shear luck)

However silverfish did send me out some hummer ones for free which I have ended up using and keeping the originals as a spare set incase I fancy a refresh down the line.

I did recently check on slik graphics I think it was and they have all of them in stock now (didn’t at the time I was in need).

Here’s a pic of the bike, all that is left to do is cut the hoses down for the brakes.
