Graphics and Decals
Used cycling decals, stickers and graphics from UK sellers. Frame decals, component stickers, custom graphics and OEM replacements for Fox, RockShox, Santa Cruz, Specialized and more, in both die-cut and printed vinyl.
What can decals do for a tired frame?
Decals and stickers let you refresh a battered frame, personalise a build, or replace worn factory graphics without repainting. The quality difference between cheap print-at-home stickers and proper die-cut vinyl decals is significant — good decals will look right for years.
Can I get decals for my frame brand?
Replacement frame decals are available for most major brands, including Santa Cruz, Specialized, Trek, Yeti, Commencal, Nukeproof and Orange. OEM-spec decals match the factory graphics exactly, while custom decals let you change colours, go stealth (black on matte black), or add accent colours that tie the build together. Slik Graphics, Ride Decals and BikeStickerz cover the major brands and offer custom colour options.
What about fork and wheel decals?
Fork decals (RockShox, Fox, Marzocchi), wheel decals (DT Swiss, Hunt, Hope) and rim decals are popular upgrades, and matching fork and wheel graphics to a colour scheme pulls a build together visually. Accent colours are easier to settle on if you choose them alongside anodised parts such as pedals. Component decals are smaller and simpler to apply than frame decals — a good starting point if you haven't applied vinyl before.
What makes a decal last?
Good decals use thick vinyl (80-100 micron) with a UV-resistant laminate layer that prevents fading and peeling. Cheap decals printed on thin vinyl fade within weeks of UV exposure and peel as soon as they get wet. Die-cut decals, cut to shape with no visible backing, look cleaner than digitally printed decals on clear backing. Matte and gloss finishes are both available — match the finish to your frame's paint for the most seamless look, and to any other MTB components you're restyling.
How do I apply them?
Clean the surface with isopropyl alcohol, then use the wet application method: spray a fine mist of soapy water on the surface, position the decal, and squeegee from the centre outward to push water and air out. That gives you a few seconds to reposition before the adhesive grabs. Apply in a warm, dry room and leave 24 hours before riding. For frames with complex curves, use a heat gun on low to soften the vinyl so it conforms to contours without wrinkling.
