Since the late 1990’s, gravity racers and freestyle riders have provided an appealing look that best represents the sport of mountain biking to the youth of the world. These days, more so than ever, the amateur and recreational crowd is imitating the look of their favorite pro riders, and this is where the idea of hieroglyphFX (pronounced hieroglyphics) came about. We aim to sharpen the image of the athletes and their bikes in our sport – this is hieroglyphFX.

hieroglyphFX is the first company to offer a custom look to the general public. From factory racers and race teams to the grassroots privateers who wish to sharpen their look or the weekend warrior who wants to protect their investment, we’re here for you. We are developing user-friendly vinyl products that will enhance the visual appearance of your bike, jersey, helmet and anything else you want to sharpen up as well as creating a product designed to protect your investment from the rigors of shuttle runs, bike parks and everyday use. Rider owned and operated out of San Diego, CA, we will work closely with JD Swanguen and several race teams (to be named shortly) to develop and promote our frame graphic kits, jersey heat transfers, personal ID kits and vehicle wraps.

just had a look at their website and £70 for a full custom frame set is not that bad really considering!
but also agree there prob is a few places out there that do it.

I'd go for it, if they covered every square inch of the frame. Not just over top certain sections. Looks tacky that way!

thats what we have done to motocross bikes ever since we started using plastic body panels, its super cool that someone has thought to do it to bicycles. that bike is sweet looking, definitely want some
That's cool. One Ghost Industries will be offering custom graphic packages for their bikes too, I think Evil is even doing the same thing.
