I see a name on a top tube I wince a little
I think this is just a measure of how uncomfortable it makes you to deviate from the norm. It reinforces mediocrity..
The bloke spent money on a product, he hasn't had it yet, he is pissed off and wants to know if anyone else has had issues.
It might be an unnecessary product in your eyes, but you should consider that many people think mountain bikes are unnecessary.
How bout we all chip in and get him his tenner back after all the fun we've had out of it?
I'll pledge 2p

No, it comes across as someone pretending to be a pro, and thus embarrasing.
Sounds like you have lost your inner child.
I'm going to get one of these for the top tube.

What's the child's name
If they had their name on a sticker,they would'nt be lost.
If you got your sticker?

The same could be said about most bike purchases, equipment choices and folk "training" for amateur races.
Not at all druid, completely different.
Quite tempted by the link from Plus One now I've seen they offervthe pirate flag as an option
I bought some for my tri-ethusiast sister and they turned up in less than a week..
I have my name on both my bikes with a little Saltire and I don't care what people think.
I've got "just another fat **** on a bike" on my SS. Not my name but an accurate description of the rider.
Serious note for a moment. Can anyone recommend somewhere to get replacement sticker sets made up? Thinking about getting a frame sprayed and want to change the colour and the stickers.
Try Slik Graphics for decals, they are superb
in [b]your[/b] opinion....which is kinda the point really.cynic-al - Member

Minority groups (or freaks with weird pastimes) infighting, arguing and singling out others for derision is pretty sad. Comic effect is one thing but some here sound sincere, not specifically aimed at you al

gil@thecycleshed.co.uk
Fair point D0NK.
What is "training" anyway, is it related to training?
Does the company also put your name at the bottom of car number plates?
Yes to Gil at cycle shed... Big thumbs down to Slik Graphics !!!! Gave up after few months of getting the runaround and every time I spoke to guy on phone(nice as pie) yes no problem I'll get onto them next week .. Gave up in the end 🙁
What next? Your Strava name listing your KOMs?
Your forum name?
Jesus wept, sweet child of Nazareth.
Stickers ordered.
"Sweet Child of Nazareth"
I should put my hand up here to having my forum name on all my bikes, have done for years. An' I'm Proud... (From Flandria.com as mentioned above) 8)
So the OP asks if anyone had dealt with a certain company, for putting something on HIS bike.
Then comments slate his choice, giving an opinion that wasn't asked for. Even stating it's an ego thing.
Yes, because ignoring the question and giving your own opinion on what someone should or shouldn't have on their bike, now that is the height of humility!
@ the OP. Hope it works out. Enjoy your bike.

World Was 2 fighter stylee - a wee Strava symbol for every KOM slayed!
I'm having Lance Armstrong on mine,coz I take drugs and like to cheat.
If anyone is persuaded to buy stickers from this thread 🙂 I can reccomend the Flandria website linked earlier. Quick and hassle free.
Isla bikes do names on frames. Both my boys have their names on their bikes and they think its ace!
Flandria +1 (or more it seems)
Where's the OP gone?
Why not just change your name by deed poll to 'Specialized Stumpjumper'? I think it costs a fiver.
More seriously, I bought a 'design your own' Tee shirt off t'internet over a year ago and the same thing happened. £15 isn't worth getting in a flap about but if the guy manages to rip £15 of a whole load of folk then it's worth the scam innit.
Forum names on frames
Guilty your honor

In my defense that bike and name existed before I joined STW.
NAMESONFRAMES
In reply to rbrstr, i contacted via his e mail address, no reply & then replied via pay pal, explaining i had not received a detailed breakdown of name, flag or design, this was not read. He replied to my e mail this morning, he let me know his details stickers printed & will be posted.
Not sure why there was a communication breakdown.
Just sign up now
that is your theme tune
I have my team name on the top tube. Got sponsored because someone noticed it at a race, so perfectly acceptable imho as it got our team free stuff
Ages ago there was a thread and someone knocked up a forum sticker. I was going to get a couple printed off.
Whiny cockbags rings a bell 🙂 did anyone save it ? the mock up disappeared from the thread when i went looking ages ago......
explaining i had not received a detailed breakdown of name, flag or design, this was not read.
So without the detailed info, you hadn't done the stickers and sent anything out. So what about this in the OP...
he responded with fake tracking information in an attempt to mislead paypal.
...if you hadn't sent anything out
Going to sticker it up as "FAT"
As I am
I had my name put on my frame......when I was 15!!!!
So without the detailed info, you hadn't done the stickers and sent anything out.
Assuming the OP made the order through the website, the fact one cannot proceed with an order, unless you fill out all the order option fields, also makes this:
explaining i had not received a detailed breakdown of name, flag or design, this was not read.
...a curious statement. As surely they cannot make an order without sending NoF the information they need.

The funniest thing about this thread and STW in general is the huge amount of fail some posters deliver when trying to join in with the joke.
You know those people who say they do stuff "just to annoy as many STWers as possible" ? I've never really understood why. I now do and I'm sorely tempted to get myself some stickers, probably forum name so if you see me out on the trails say hi (or point and laugh with contempt) 🙂
All fields required, curious indeed, hopefully all sorted now tho....?

Here, hear, but i took it a step further and put forum name everywhere. The free stuff i get is overwhelming...
