Removing Bike Stickers

[Velocivixen]

@Mimi, the decals on the Surly bike in question, the Cross Check, has graphics that seems sort of juvenile looking I guess you could say. Of course, that said, it's all a matter of opinion. I just don't want the word "Surly down each of the seat stays and each of the forks PLUS the down tube (larger). I don't mind the brand and the name of the bike once, but not all over the place. The chainstay says "FFF Fatties Fit Fine" because they can take tires up to size 45 or 50 mm!

Well, I must say my bike looks sleek and elegant now.

I kept the "Surly" on the downtube and the forks and the headbadge. That's plenty, and really the bike looks quite nice. I might try getting the downtube stickers off someday, but for now I'll leave them.

I think in the future, now that I know what a pain it is to get old stickers off, I'll take stickers I want off PDQ.

(I assume I'll be buying more bikes someday!)

My Giant has no markings anywhere, except her very classic headbadge. I like that look.

I'm with you on not wanting a bike with a ton of advertising on it. It's not my style. I like subtle. I'm counting the days until I pick up my Cross Check. This Sunday (the stem arrives Friday). I wish Sunday would hurry and come.
