7-Eleven Chevron Dimensions

I am working the chevrons for my 7-Eleven project. I just need the chevron sizes so I can cut the vinyl masking.

Can someone provide the dimensions of the large and small chevrons to include the white portion and the red and green space in between from a factory painted bike?

Picture of a bike I stripped years ago but didn't get good measurements and design space canvas

It might help if you could post a picture of what exact bike you are asking about. Strangely enough, a glove and a ruler are just not that helpful.

Eddy Merckx 7-Eleven livery. If you don't have the bike you don't have the answer. The person who has the answer also possess the bike. "7-Eleven Chevron" in the context of original paint and the Classic and Vintage forum can only mean one thing and doesn't have to be an "exact bike" such as corsa or corsa extra.

That should clear it up or:

If any forum members has and possesses an original paint Eddy Merckx in 7-eleven livery can you please share the info requested above? Vintage does not mean the limited edition one from circa 2007. Thank you

Just FYI, you're coming in way too hot here. All in-groups have their unwritten preferences for conduct. This tends to be especially true in textual on-line contexts. (Going back at least to USENET / BBS era, and likely much longer.)

This seems to me to be a bit out-of-bounds....

It would be nice if the member(s) would have read the entire post before replying. It WAS a straight forwarded question with good intentions that has only been met with criticism. There is a good reason why I don't come here. And your reference to dial-up modem days says it all. You speak of boundaries but operate with unwritten rules. Check yourself

Bikes: More than the people who ride them...oy.

Maybe we should all start fresh…

OP: I am sure that someone on here has said bike (I do not), and should be able to measure it when they get a chance.

Might take a bit though since it is sort of a rare guy isn’t it?

I assume this is the one?

Well, if you really have nothing but contempt for this place, please don't let the door hit you when you leave.
