Anyone know where to get replacements with custom color options?

Currently have these, but would prefer it toned down a little.

These green ones have been going around the internets for a bit but I don’t get why they couldn’t figure out they had a typo on them before they made the decal...

Ha, ha, I had to look at the image several times before I caught it. Reminds me of this cognitive test.

and I was looking at "Ratchet." A quick google search indicated it's Hip Hop slang, and should/could have been "Rachet."

To clear things up sometimes I forget a large part of the demographic of paceline...

420 is a weed culture thing... smoking weed at 4:20 on 4/20 ect... that is why the decal is green...

why I missed the misspelled thing because I actually have a set of these, actually Hilltopperny now has those wheels.

I am still not sure if quickfeet was kidding or internet joke....



Anyways get em here -

the dictionary sites say rachet is what we usually spell as ratchet. Who knew? Or do they now have misspellings?

I'm glad those exist. The loud red decals on 240 hubs (and even the white on the 350s) have always turned me off to what are great hubs on all accounts.

Those are cool. I would be interested in your experience/methods of getting the current stickers off.

Current stickers seem to come up pretty easy.

Old decals came off easy and with minimal residue. I did use a rag and some Isopropyl to remove it and clean the surface for the new decals. Pretty stealthy, I'm satisfied.

4 month check in and these are still holding up great in the Wisconsin rain, snow, and heat.

Those look pretty cool!

I have a set of DT190 hubs and DT240's I wanted to polish and apply decals on. I asked Vanilla workshop if they would paint them but they paint hubs with a bike order and kit.

I wanted a snazzy set of polka dot hubs.

I just ride 'em for a couple years and BOOM! the stock decals fall right off, without fail. It's happened with three or four different sets of DT hubs.

I've purchased 5-6 sets of DT hub and rim decals in custom colors from Slik Graphics over the years. All have been spot-on in colors and good quality, FWIW.

Hold the phone....you have a leopard print fork, and you want to "tone down" the DT decals??

You're awesome.....;)
