Fontbike by Simon Farla

The more fonts you put on something, the faster it goes right? In 2006 I repainted my old Trek 1000. First I polished it down to the aluminum. Then I layed out the type on computer from which I cut vinyl stencils. The last steps involved wrapping the stencils around the frame (difficult!), then a light coat of spraypaint (don’t want to add too much weight).
