Installation labour, including VAT
RideWrap or Invisiframe kits are purchased separately. You can supply the correct bike-specific kit, or Torque Collective can help source it once the bike make, model, year, frame size and exact variant have been confirmed.
Careful preparation matters
The quality of the finished installation depends on accurate preparation and patient fitting—not simply applying panels to the frame.
The frame and application areas are cleaned and prepared before fitting begins.
Pre-cut panels are positioned carefully around the frame’s shapes, edges and key interfaces.
Panels are applied methodically with attention to edges, alignment and the overall finish.
The completed installation is checked and relevant post-install care is explained.
Protection matched to the bike
Both brands produce pre-cut paint-protection film kits designed around specific bicycle frames. Correct identification is essential because frame shapes and panel patterns vary by model, year, size and sometimes specification.
Simple booking process
Send the make, model, year, frame size and exact variant, plus photographs if useful.
We check that the RideWrap or Invisiframe kit matches the correct frame before booking.
Once the kit and bike details are confirmed, we agree an appointment-led installation slot.
The frame is prepared, the panels are fitted and the finished installation is inspected.
