Evening

Anyone got any experience of, or know anywhere that will, wrap a carbon road bike?

Not aiming to look like a gold lambo outside Harrords but breathe some life into an old and scratched carbon frame that fits me well and is structurally fine.

Can ony see clear protective wraps on [google] and wondered if folk had come across other options?

Cheers

Hi - no but that's because I didnt think you could respray carbon, which may be a false assumption!

You can. Try Fatcreations or Kustomflow, but you’ll probably need to wait a few months for a slot. There are plenty others around the UK too.

Thank you. I don't know why I thought it wasn't possible - I've done it to steel frames I own. That's fab - opens up new possibilities. Cheers!
