Bike Wraps

Update: As of 2023 I’m scaling-back my plans for vinyl wraps. I’ve had good results but I worry about spreading myself too thin by promoting them along side carbon repairs. I will not be able to provide any Full Wraps for the time being. Minor graphic/logo changes are still available but more comprehensive wraps are too time consuming for me to dedicate the time they need to be done right.

  • Logo/Accent Color Change

    Wrap a new color over colored panels on your frame including new custom logos. Coverage of 10%-20% of the frame. Can also include matching wheel logos or graphics.

    Price: $60-$200

  • 80% Wrap

    Nearly a full wrap but avoiding the tricky areas whenever possible to cut down on labor while still covering a large majority of the frame. Can include new logos. On many bikes this is a great option and can often look nearly as complete as a full wrap.

    Price: $300-$500

  • Full Wrap

    This is the hardest wrap but also the most complete. Seams are minimized and hidden as much as possible with the goal of achieving as close to the look of a full re-paint as possible. Can include wrapping the fork, stem, etc. to match.

    Price: Coming Soon (Still working out the best methods for doing these so this might not be practical on all bikes.

Wrap Details

 

  • Vinyl wraps have been popular on cars for many years for personalization and advertisement. The wrap is basically a large sticker that conforms to fit the surface of whatever it is applied to. They come in many colors and finishes including gloss, matte, color shifting, holographic and metallic.

  • A wrap can radically change the appearance of your bike and can also provide a layer of protection. If your bike color clashes with your team’s/club’s kit or if your local bike shop has the perfect bike for you but it’s in a color you don’t like you can wrap your bike in just about any color your can imagine.

  • No, as long as the paint underneath the wrap is high quality and in good shape then a wrap can be removed with zero damage to the surface below it.

  • Most of the wrap materials I use are guaranteed by their manufacturer for about 4 years when used on cars. I’ve had wraps in place for about 1-2 years without signs of failure.

  • A wrap serves a slightly different purpose to a custom paint job. A wrap will typically be cheaper and can be applied and removed without voiding your warranty (a good paint job requires the old paint be removed which a manufacturer will frown on). Custom paint would be a more premium option but a wrap can be much more practical.

  • See above for different options and approximate price ranges. Quality wrap materials are relatively expensive and the process takes several hours of labor.

  • Reach out and share an idea of the look you’re wanting to achieve and the bike you want it done on. I’ll put together a proposal with an estimated cost and lead-time and we can go from there.
