trialsiain Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 So i got a brand new rockman austin frame and i like the graphics on the side, but im going to be using a carbon downtube protector and on my last frame its always scratched the graphics and finish off. I tried putting selotape across my rockman slates frame but the selotape ripped the graphics off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashleys sugden Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 get some stickers made that are replicas of the graphics or something! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevinfor Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 You could try some of this: http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/other_frame_spares/bbb_tube_skin/c127p11597.html Just put a bit of that the same size as your downtube protection on the frame.

LukasMcNeal Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 Could spray a bit of clear laquer over the top? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevinfor Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 Why would you remove the protector or the tape though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
customrider-Rhys Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 Put the tape on the protector? Or a tissue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradJohnson Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 I used to use a bit of bubble wrap under mine, only to soak up some impact but it also worked to stop the frame from scuffing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.Wood Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 Make a protector for your stickers out of sorta curved carbon fibre tube, then put your downtube protector over that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
