How to Make Your Own MTB Tyre Logos || Bike Customization
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 окт 2024
- About six months ago, I experimented with how you can remove the manufacturer logos from a bike tyre and paint your own ones on there. Since then I've had my channel name on my tyres as white logos.
Now I needed new tyres, so I thought this would be a good opportunity to show you how it works.
It's a relatively cheap way to customize your bicycle and make it stand out, using a towel, some cardboard and PlastiDip.

Street Trial is a mixture of two sports - Bike Trials and Street BMX. It gained popularity on RUclips in recent years through riders like Martyn Ashton, Danny MacAskill, Ali Clarkson, Duncan Shaw, Sean Watson, Fabio Wibmer and John Langlois.
Trials riding is all about riding/hopping over and balancing on obstacles. BMX Street is all about tricks and style. Street Trials combines the two and does tricks over, off and onto obstacles.
Videos like Danny MacAskill's Way Back Home, Imaginate, Inspired Bicycles 2009 or Fabio Wibmer's Fabiolous Escape showcase lots of what Street Trials is about.
How to make Custom Tyre/Tire Letters + Remove the Manufacturer Logos || Bike Customization 101

Disclaimer: I can't guarantee this works with every tyre model on the market. You're removing material from the sidewalls - so you might damage the structural strenght of the tyre.
Yesterday i had the idea to do that but i didn‘t find any good tutorials for bicycle tires and suddenly this video pops up! Thank you!
That's sick, how much trial and error was used to figure it all out, how many old tires did you test on?
I had some attempts on old tyres with normal spray paint, which doesn't stick well, then I got the GummiDip and just made the logos you see at the start of the video.
After the first two they stopped looking messy :D
@@TheUselessTrials sick the end product looks great!
Thanks maxis makes their logos yellow and my bike's color combo does not work with the tyres and it's driving me nuts.
Cool I noticed your tyres in an earlier video, I used to do this with skate decks, whole decals with multiple colours, best thing to use is masking tape but good quality. But as Im still learning Id rather spend the time on the bike :)
Haha, good priorities. I just love customizing my stuff.
Not something I would do but nice to have the information. I thank you
Not something I've ever thought of doing myself but this is a great guide!
マックスのバイク nice!
I found this while looking for a way to make / order custom versions of the picture thingies found **inside** the spokes of tires like most commonly seen on kids' bikes.. but there doesn't seem to be any info I can find! 😥 "images INSIDE tires" only shows me the equivalent of just "tire photos" LOL why isn't it a popular thing to make & customize?? it doesn't even have a name?? well anyways I wanted to make a special handicap themed one for my future bike as an extra visual that it's used for accessibility reasons & such (especially as a tire image wd be bigger than most other forms of labeling / signage on a bike) 😅
A lot nicer to have your own logos rather than advertising. Thank you :)
That's pretty sweet! Thanks for sharing!
Cheers ✌
Mega cooles Video! Werde bei meinen Reifen einfach nur die logos für einen cleaneren look entfernen, freu mich voll auf das Ergebnis! 🔥
"Guy takes long time erasing the tire brand"
Me: takes a color back spray rubber and spray the tire done"
Have fun matching the blacks :D
@@TheUselessTrials Couldn't you just spray the whole tire?
@@allanshpeley4284 How long is that going to last, and how is it for grip?
@@eternaloptimist2840 I don't know, I've never tried it. But I have tried a bunch of methods to get rid of the logo and the best I've found is scrubbing an inflated tire with dish soap and water with a green scouring pad. It does a surprisingly good job - better than acetone or other chemicals.
Best to wear rubber gloves though because the scouring pad also works its way through your fingers pretty good. I ended up with a nasty blister on my thumb last time I de-logoed my tires.
Uh... did you actually mention which chemicals you had used?
Just chemicals bruh. It doesn't matter which. Just pick a chemical and get to work.
what happens when you use an industrial oil based spray paint like rustoluem?
Why not just stick a bunch of layers of paper (painters) tape together and cut it into that, then stick that straight on? Instead of the whole cardboard thing?
you can probably use a low adhesion spray or double tape when you put the stencil on
fyi, the rubbing woth towel method also scrubbed off the rubber from the sodewall until it reached some kind of net, so be wary (tried on maxxis grifter)
That's the Exo sidewall protection layer; clearly it did its job. :-) If you want to avoid the scrubbing step you could probably just paint the whole sidewall with black rubber paint. Or you could do white sidewalls, and mask your custom writing so it shows black against white.
What brakes are you using?

Hi I want to do my mtb tyres . do u know wat words I can do
Fake maxxis tires here we come
kannst du einen deutschen channel machen weil ich gehört hab das du deutsch kannst ^^
Can't wait to do this 😂!
COOL stuff.
Love it man
Was mit den Gummidip?
Great
hm wouldnt be masking tape better instead of cardboard?
If you manage to mask your wanted shape nicely and reuse your tape mask for multiple logos, yes! Good idea.
Probably takes even longer, but it should work. 👍🏻
I think I'll try masking tape to make whitewall tires
Heyy what size bike do i need. I have been riding bmx. But it's boring now. I wanna try trials it's so nice, but i'm 185 cm and weigh 73 kg. do i fit 20' or 24'?
Hi! If you want to combine BMX and trials riding, a street trials bike with 24" wheels should suit you best. (e.g. Inspired Fourplay, Arcade or Flow)
For pure trials you'd probably go for a 26", but I think there are 20" bikes for tall riders, too. Tartybikes.co.uk will be able to help you with your question in more detail than I can!
@@TheUselessTrials Thank you so much. I live in Denmark so can you recommend some shops? What do you use
If there's no trials shop in Denmark, I can recommend Tartybikes. They're UK based and ship worldwide. I always buy from them or Trialmarkt.de.
@@TheUselessTrials Okaay:) thank you. I have i budget on 6000 dkk so about 600£
