Decals on wheels - yes or no?

[pooneej]

I know its so subjective but it's not a polarizing kind of yes or no. With or without both look good to me. Just curious other opinions - or shoot I could just leave one side without. Haf-and-Haf . Dick Tracy style !

not sure why the pics are upside down. i even re-uploaded.

[vincenz]

Without for sure, given the frame color.

[wallymann]

for a sublime italian ride like that battaglin, anything that takes away from it's class must go -- without x100. same goes for the cranks and seatpin.

if you must have logos, dark graphite or contrasting-textured black logos would work.

here's your bike right-side-up and slightly color-corrected:

Looking pretty sharp without the decals on your wheels.

Unbadge your stem & seatpost if you want to be really sharp.

Personally, I like wheels with decals in this case. The white wheel decals play well with the white frame.
The blank wheels are just blah. Rather like a car with white letter tires vs. blackwalls.

No decals, especially if they are as loud as Campys Bora’s. I removed my Bora and Reynolds carbon decals-couldn’t take the Easton carbons off cause they are under clearcoat

[jtbadge]

Any decals or logos that are safely removable should be removed, atmo

+1...too bad you can’t ditch the crank logos too.

ahhh -- thank you. I can imagine it now without all that and get it.

wheels, seatpost, stem easy fix. cranks -eh not so much unless I bead blast em lol.

No.

Those are very distracting, especially on that frame.
Mavic wheel decals are usually hideous, and those are no exception.

How did you remove the Bora decals. Aren’t they under a clear coat on the Bora Ones and Ultras?

[makoti]

I like the decals. Just plain black looks...plain.

[ryker]

I say no decals. But I also unstitch the labels from
my jeans.

[Vertical]

Because the companies get marketing benefit from you riding with labels. I say take them off!

I have ultra two’s, bought used here. Just a little heat from a hair dryer and started peeling them off. Every letter was an individual sticker so it took maybe an hour, hour and half on a rainy day. Well worth it.

[Bob Ross]

Without. Please.

[kppolich]

Not unless you are sponsored.

Every time I see a frame clamped by a top tube it makes me cringe...clamping the seatpost was the first thing I was taught when working as a mechanic
