MohammedJeewa Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 Hi all, I want to inquire about the transparent wraps that are being advertised to protect the bike frame, head tube ,forks etc. Is it a neat concealed wrap and I am guessing it's as effective and of the same quality that the firms are using to protect the front of the cars bonnets and fenders. If anybody has them installed I would like to know their opinion and to possible agents if the reviews are good as I recently saw an ad for a full bike frame @ R950.00. I think it's a hit expensive for a bike frame as the area is so much smaller ....... ???? . Regards . Mohammed
shakamara Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 Hi Mohammed. Ive sent you a pm with my details. I do custom kits like this, similar to the coverage that guys from frameskins and invisiskins offer.
Tatt Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 Howdy Why not get yourself some 3M Helicopter tape - the 5cm wide version works the best, and will probably only cost you around R150 to tape all the necessary spots on your bike. Tom

Pieter1 Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 I wrapped my bike and took it off again. Dust goes into the tiny gaps and it looks poef. Either get some super profesional to do it or spray the bike with something...

Seems like many people prefer going the DIY 'spoeg n plak' route though.Yea, the money I spent on the stuff was the worst best buy I ever made... Best because the stuff is tough and worst because I did it myself.
