Another use for Deep Vs... :)
3 Attachment(s)
Hey all....I'm a photographer in Long Beach, CA and I get around to all my assignments by bike (either my fixie or my xtracycle). I've been staring at my Deep Vs and thought it would be awesome to put some sort of graphic on it. I was going to do an elaborate design around the wheel but the design would be too complex for a vinyl cutter. Anyway, I decided it would make great advertising space while I was stopped at lights or parked in front of a restaurant :)

love the angle on that last photo - and the colored rims! ::dreams of buying a new wheelset when the current one is Just Fine::
|
only problem is a large portion of people on fixed gears don't like logos, and things like chris king headsets piss them off.
nice idea though. |
i'd like to think of it less as a logo and more like guerilla advertising and creative reuse of space :)
|
very clever and good use of space. i hope you get more business now cuz of your creativity

nice idea though. Cool blog and thanks for the article on the Bikestation, I really like that place. :D Add a Rss feed to your blog too. Thanks. |
there's nothing wrong with owning the best headset on the market, i was merely pointing out that some people don't like any logos on their bikes.

I am gunna use that to advertise my self thanks for the idea
|
Do what you want, but if anyone tags my bike I'funa bust their ass.
|
What color are those rims? They look like wood.
And the fatlace rims are awesome. Not sure how they'd actually look on a bike, but they look good on their own. |
People always advertise by putting up random URLs everywhere. This is so stupid. Who the **** will actually remember some random URL, then go home and type it in before they forget about it? It is like getting an anonymous email saying "Click here!!!" only it is less convenient.

What kind of bag/setup do you have mounted on the seatpost? it looks like something I could use. How much weight can you put in there?
|
I have FORTIFIED stickers on my wheels to promote my friends clothing company.....too bad everyone thinks it's in regards to wine.

Hey, now your bike can be depreciated on your taxes!
|
you can probably use your bike as a tax write-off now too!
