Graphics and Decals for bikes

[Eagalicious]

Hey guys, this site was recommended to me and I thought it would be a good place to pass it along. These guys are in N.C. and they are looking for some bikes to use for their graphics as well. Just thought that I would share :D

Tapeworks has been around for a while. I think the biggest issue with wraps is getting them actually on the bike. Wrapping curved surfaces is no easy task. All the youtube videos on the web cant give you a sense of the skill it actually takes.

Yeah, the "Sign Guy" you recommended said the same thing. He even showed me how it can bunch up using the reflective stuff on curved edges because it's a little thicker. I don't know
What these Tapeworks guys use but hey, it never hurts to ask I just want it to cover the existing stuff, nothing new or fancy. :D

i know some of the wraps are channeled which when laying out it helps to push the air out and give it that sleek look, also some are perforated, which has very small pin hole in them to do the same thing.

i work at delta, and we have to put wraps on our buses and some contract planes and that what we use

There are many types of material out there and choices grow every day. To wrap a bike you need what is called "controll tack" with overlaminate. Bikes are hard because of the complex curves and deep grooves in the body work. Also when wrapping the use of heat on a bike is difficult because the bodywork is plastic.
