fake carbon bitz, blue peter styleeee!!!!

Post by agentpineapple »

i promised cybercarl i'd knock up a couple of carbon wrapped inserts for his bikes frame.
they ain't perfect but i reckon it ain't bad.
here they are.....

i think they would look better with 3 or 4 coats of clear lacquer, but seen as i let carl borrow mine, that will have to wait, all you have to do is clean that area of the frame and attach them with some strong double sided sticky tape . i've made several pairs, so if anyones interested let me know, i reckon £5 a pair will cover postage and packing...... first come first served and all that.

Looking good :thumbup: I'm not sure double sided sticky is the way to go though. I'm thinking of using glue. Not sure what glue yet, but glue it is.

Shall get the lacquer back to you over the weekend. :wink:
