Might be a little vain but, if buying carbon road wheels with particularly bad, garish decals, do you:
a) remove decals and leave blank, no name, stealth look rims or
b) remove decals and replace with repro decals from another brand
Leaving the originals on is not an option as they are awful looking!
I'd go stealth
I'd delete this post
Stealth+1
I'd delete this post
Me too.
If you don't like them why did you buy them?
a) sure, why not?
b) I'd delete this post! Do you put Ferrari stickers on your Kia too? 😉
Def ask mods to delete thread and change username.
I took the stickers off my stans Alpha rims, unfortunately they've gone from looking nasty to looking cheep now so I think I'll pop down the signwriters and get some less garish sickers made up based on the originals.
is there laquer over the stickers?
but def delete this post.
I'm sure I posted up there somewhere
Has somebody been deleting stuff?
@ ap
i didnt buy them for the stickers!

I'd have handbuilt on some (no doubt identical) Gigantex rims, no decals, cost less, weigh less.
Might be a little vain
Understatement of the year!

right ...im off to road.cc
Always remove all stickers, especially ones on rims.
They cause fits in pigs and look tacky.
Personally, I'd change your surname by deed poll to Williams... 😉
I've just looked at those wheels and to be fair, the decals look bloody awful.
You could take the stickers off and paint 'Eat my dust' on each rim, or your favourite quote, whatever. 🙂
Or you could always auction the space off for advertising.
like the corporate approach rusty
I'd change my name to "William" and leave them on.
This thread requires some pics.....
Do you mean garish???? like these......... 😉

Or just bought px 50's for half as much.
not that i have any idea what Giantex rims are. Some roadie bollocks, no doubt
I'd delete your yourself 😐
njee - built by Rob Pennell maybe?
Can only be read if you stop. Don't stop. Ever.

Leave them on, removal could well go badly!
Only option is to ride faster, so no one gets a good look...
I like this post.
Good honest vanity rather than self righteous pontificating.
Should I wear my free Wiggle socks?
its your bike do what you want and ignore the usual trolls
i suppose i should have expected a post related to road bikes and aesthetics to have met with much ribbing from STW massive, i've been around long enough to know that!
The best thing about all these massive carbon rims is the space they give you for[url= http://bikesnobnyc.blogspot.co.uk/2008/09/riding-balls-out-haters-and-hated.html ] "All you haters suck my balls"[/url] stickers surely?
How about some reflective decals for the times you use them for the late night commute? 😉
oooh no....this is not a commute bike
