O yes, and the bike weight is 7.3 kg. Not bad for a basic Giant al/carbon frame with chorus grouppo.

Very nice job, the white tyres work well too, compliments the rest of the bike.

Crux do they do any intricate work, like detailed pictures etc on a frame, or just basic stuff that can be masked n painted...?

The sticker:

I used transparency paper and printed the image in mirror image on the transparency paper with my normal HP printer. Printing on trancparency paper is the best quality you will get at home. Once finished, you can trun the transparency paper around to see the image wanted (the printed surface is now at the back) You then take a piece of vinal sticker, in this case silver and white and stick it to the back on the printed surface. After that you take dubble sided tape (sellotape thickness) and stick it to the back of the vinal and then it s ready for use! Just cut out the exact peice you want to use! Easy and very effective since come rain or shine, the printing wont come of since it is actually behind the trancparency and is protected by the vinal and dubble sided tape.

 

Hope it makes sence!

Its costs +- R1500 and they can do pretty complex stuff!

 

The problem with pannel beaters that do the paint is the extra wieght of the paint! I stripped my frame myself to bare al and carbon and after they painted it, the weight of all the paint and clear finish was just 55g!! Thats even less than the manufacturers ad when painting!!

have the spokes on those wheels also been done by cycleart or is it the flash of the camera that makes them look white.....

No the spokes look like that because of the flash. The tires are kept clean by every now and then cleaning then with handy andy.

This was a standard BH Global Concept G1. We did a paint job to match the AG2R Team BH G4 they are riding this year.

 

 

 

Thanks Cliff!

 

 

 

I have had custom custom one done in red, for a customer a few weeks ago. Pic will follow soon.
