OCD question here:

just got some new 09 boxxers(cheers jake  Grin) and wandering if heli tape works to protect them well without making them look shite? Its partly coz i dont trust my lbs as they buggered my frame (dropped it upside down)? any other products recommended would be appreciated too.
cheers!

Well Heli-Tape will be visible on your lowers, and is noticable, however if you take your time with the scissors you can make a very neat and tidy job of it.
I Heli-Tape my frame, however when it comes to fork lowers, I don't mind them getting scratched as I will re-spray the lowers at the end of each year anyway, complete with new decals, so it's no big deal..

If you do decide to get some Heli-Tape, I have tried a few different brands, but contact 'Duane..' on here as his stuff is the best and very competitively priced!

As Scout says, Im still selling HeliTape, can order directly through me, but probably easiest just to do it through the site, www.HeliTape.co.uk
