All done:








Vinyl is holding up with the brakes as expected as long as its not heavy braking.

Fixie's don't really use brakes anyways, they use the pedals to slow down.

I think I'm going to build a bamboo fixie.

^Yep, although that fixie has a pivot side pull on the rear, but I'm sure you saw that lol.

Have you done a set of car wheels yet?

[TampasOriginalSoarer]

^ been doing automotive wheels since the 90s !

[Sabotage]

the bike wheels look like theyd be tedious but it sure does look good!

kims bike isnt a fixed gear its a single speed so she needs brakes.

ohhhhhhhh, the tiny sprocket makes it look like a fixie. Makes sense now.

[TampasOriginalSoarer]

I like it...I was thinking about getting my Kayak wraped...how would it hold up in water?

[DD.]

I dont think i've ever seen someone do this before. Pretty neat though, thanks for sharing

I don't think he was trying to say that he was the first one to do this.

Pretty cool idea though. Before I even read anything about the brakes I was wondering how the vinyl would hold up. Must be pretty tough stuff. Is it expensive to wrap something in vinyl? I have no concept of what it would cost.

I know I'm not a professional, but what if you were to put a clear vinyl over the wheels to protect the other vinyl from the brakes?

Looks good.
