Top tube protector.
Vinyl tubing cut lengthwise to fit and wrapped around the top tube. Clear electrical tape to finish.
Perfect for oversized tubes and pretty much crystal clear. Oh yeah. $0.50 in materials. http://farm1.static.flickr.com/153/4...611ef2cd36.jpg |

pictures?
[edit]: okay. got it. nice! |
that's a damn good idea.
not flashy looking either. i bet it makes some pretty bummed about buying a kashimax... |
i just did my own twist on this... cut a cola can up and put it inbetween layers... it's like a kashimax but obviously homemade and silver, not gold.
great idea, thanks! |
electrical tape over a base layer of teflon plumbers tape (to keep the goop off) is how I roll.

Here's what someone should do:
Sandwich mylar star-shaped confetti beween two layers of vinyl tubing. That'd look hot. |
Just wondering is that a MASH sticker on your stem? Nice job by the way. It looks great.
