Hi, I'm repainting my bike and I'd like to add customized text to it. How do I go about doing this? bikenames.com does not have the color/font i want (i want the same baby blue as the base of the frame.) here's the frame and here's the text i want. the "Horatio" is 7"x1.5" and the phrase is 7"x1". thanks

I don't know anything about decals, but I can't help wondering why you would want to write "it's just a courtyard" on your bike. Inside joke?

It's Tour, not Cour. Thanks, maybe I should change the font : )

edit: but C is in "C'est" so it's ok, i think

Maybe a Gettocal is what you could use - But getting an exact match to the color paint is not possible unless you send them a sample of the color - You could go to a contrasting color in the same shade...

If you need help with this then export your text via PDF to me and I will try to put it together for you...

I will also need the tube diameters for centering the cal...

thank you!

edit: I went with Buildasign.com. they have clear decals. i put all 4 texts (+2 detroit flags) on a 12x12" sheet for 5 bucks and free shipping! thanks again, sir.

Never used clear from them - Be sure to post your results - Also try to be patient - They take a long time to deliver...

I've used Ultimate Decals.com before, they make nice die cut lettering. I was pleased.

Little late now...but...I would have just gone to a local sign shop. Any font you want...many colors of vinyl...couple minutes wait...done.
