If you know someone with a vinyl cutter, they could make you a whole sheet in various sizes.

Hey, are you trying to get him thrown in jail?

You're going to tell him to make deeee-cals (see, I can say it like an American), then call the feds and have him arrested, aren't you?

BTW, that's Southern - - not 'murican

i have googled it and nothing really all that helpful comes up not even on ebay i found big ones like 6" long, just kinda surprising that theres not much out there for crank decals, mine have rubbed off right in the middle and looks a little lame i guess ill just remove them the rest of the way and deal with it.

Fizzaly

Wow is all i have to say. Maybe we should all start spelling stuff canadian?

If it's your cranks you're worried about, why not go with Crankskins? Then you have a choice of a bunch of different custom looks:

I guess so, you seem pretty sure we all have a southern accent even though i live in idaho which is only a few miles from anywhere that has an accent.

When did I say everyone has a southern accent? dminor lives in Washington and he says decal different than people north of the 49th do (most Americans do, with varying emphasis on the 'e')...hence my comment directed towards him.

Go here and click on the two flags with the speaker icons in the top left and you'll hear the difference between Canadian/British and US pronunciation:

I'm from Georgia & I say dee-cal & pee-can. It doesn't offend me when people point out my unique accent though. I was just foolin'.

I'm not offended aboot the Canadian thing, eh. I talk funny too. When I was riding with 66, cryptid01/gastro and the crew in NC, they were loving my accent. Fortunately, an Aussie was there as well so he took most of the attention because of his accent.

I think it's fun to hear other people accents. It shows how unique the world is, even if it's only a few hundred miles away. I have to admit, though...New York & the mumbly Scottish accents bother me. New York accents mostly just because we have a LOT of people from NY moving to the south because of the cheap real estate & they do nothing but complain about how everything here sucks & the north is so much better. So that's a bias more than anything. And I just can't understand the Scottish. I try, but I just can't.

dminor 

Yeah, but you're in southern Idaho, so that makes sense .

anyways back to topic ive found no where on internet that sells small shimano stickers and that bums me out ive been through all the vintage and such forums and well my bike is only like 10 years old hardly vintage. so anyways thanks form the help.

Fizzaly

accents are a fun topic to poke fun im originally from MA moved to ID in 97 and people made fun of my accent on a daily basis it only took about a year or two before i lost it almost completely.
