Seeing those Pitches below with altered stickers has got me thinking about peronalised decals for my own bikes. Nothing as [i]outrageous[/i] as "Bitch" or "Pikey" but just my own name.

Looking on Ebay has been uninspiring, please post pics of yours to help me make up my mind whether or not this is a good idea. Or will my bikes end up looking like a 20year old Modders Citroen Saxo? {No Playboy bunny logos please}

found an old bike in bush, stripped it, painted it white and got my own stickers made up.

means 'bike' in bavarian.

cost about €15. i'm happy with it. think the name thing is uite subtle.

'tis now my fixie

also want my name (or variation of) on my alpine. can't find any text similar though and printng it would be costly as it has two colours on the same sticker.

They're not as blatant as those though are they? For instance, they're that small you ned to be quite close to read them and that's assuming the riders' legs aren't in the way? I'm sure they're are loads of folk on here who've got them. Just want to get an idea of which font to go for?

Jamie means "bike"? I'll need to tell my mate!

ps you should lay off those Malboro mate. Very bad. Frame looks lovely though.

Looks as though you've spelled 'Tracey' wrong on that decal...

I am Jon. My wife's name is not actually "Trevor", although it's quite a nice name. The decal is on the Big Dummy, so we are both on the bike quite a lot.
