I can't help with a JHB fitter, but I recently ordered from https://www.invisiframe.co.uk/

 

The packaged arrived about a week later. The coverage and cut is excellent and it is not too difficult to install. Just a bit time consuming. Took me a day to do frame and forks.

 

Just another option if you can't find someone in JHB.

These guys just did mine in Durban and it's amazing. Full coverage if you give them just the frame, but they can do it with a fully built bike too. I see there's one in Midrand. I did also put the honeycomb All Mountain kit on myself from Trailtech, just to add a bit of bling. It's actually so easy, and took 20minutes.

Sorry, and just to add, the VPS protection may protect from small dings and scratches, but it didn't hold up to being mounted on my tailgate cover. It scuffed it properly. Hence the reason I put on the heavier duty All mountain stuff in places that could have harder wear

They have branches in JHB. I was thoroughly impressed by the job the Durban branch did. Cost R1500 for the whole bike, including forks.

 

I can imagine that all the straightish tubes would be easy to apply to but how did they treat the Headtube and BB ?

So I thought maybe to post pics of the wrap instead so you can see for yourself. I was pleased with attention to detail, but just not sure on the longevity of the VPS, hence why I still added the All Mountain stuff. You can see the seams where they had to wrap around sections.
