Been practising my vinyl wrapping for a little while on my own bike – it’s a lot fun and works out a lot cheaper than painting.
Wondering if this is something I should offer as a service to other people?
Can you see any flaws with this? Some bikes are very intricate which is quite time consuming, but the outcome is a very unique frame!
What do you guys think of the designs?

To get it right you’d have to charge hundreds. To the point where I imagine you’d be too niche to actually go far.
It’s a shame, because it would be cool. But as you said, bikes are very complex
I like it, and I would pay for it if the price is reasonable.
(Not with my current bikes, I love the paintjob on my new trance X frameset) The Downside is one would have to do it at purchase or do a very deep clean. Also, getting all the components off is a pain, both for an older bike and if the bike is bought complete.
Awesome designs, wouldn’t cost you to advertise the service on social media 💪🏻❤️
I would do it for sure!
I personally draw on everything I own so it would be neat if you could could get emailed a jpeg to make into the vinyl if that makes sense
How about some actual pictures of your work?
Thr designs are good but most people will want something specific so you will have to create a design for each person.
I think it’s cool as hell but the time and labour cost involved would put customers off, I think.
I did a tailored ridewrap on my Enduro (same bike as pictured) and it wasn’t terribly hard but I imagine doing a full wrap would be pretty difficult around the bottom bracket and shock tunnel area
I have been thinking of wrapping mine for a minute.
