From the creators of "roadside cuisine" we bring you...

..."Rim tape application, l33t style"

Have you ever laid awake at night wondering how "l33t" your bike would look and how much it would improve your riding skills?

Well I for one have so I bring you the definitive guide to 'r0x0rness'!

Step 1 cleaning the rim

Cleaning your application surface is important in aiding the adhesive properties of the rim-tape.

Step 2 - Checking the contents

Well you know what egay is like!, luckily its all there (we are well on the road to 'l33tness' now!

https://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a129/extreme3d51/R0X0R5L33T002.jpg

Step 3 - Application

This must be done carefully to ensure maximum 'l33tness' and 'r0x0rz' I reccomend starting the tape off then using your index finger to smooth down ensuring no air bubbles are trapped.

https://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a129/extreme3d51/R0X0R5L33T005.jpg

https://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a129/extreme3d51/R0X0R5L33T006.jpg

https://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a129/extreme3d51/R0X0R5L33T007.jpg

Make sure to leave a neat overlap also.

https://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a129/extreme3d51/R0X0R5L33T011.jpg

Now repeat untill both sides of both wheels are completed.

Step 6 - admire your new found 'l33tness'

wow how r0x0rz is this?

https://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a129/extreme3d51/R0X0R5L33T018.jpg


Now I am so l33t with my uber rim tape I can....

...Knee down

https://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a129/extreme3d51/R0X0R5L33T022.jpg

...Toe down...

https://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a129/extreme3d51/R0X0R5L33T024.jpg

...and of course even elbow down is easy for me now!

https://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a129/extreme3d51/R0X0R5L33T021.jpg

Now by following these simple steps you can improve your 'skillz' and get onto the road to 'l33tness' it worked for me, it can work for you...beutifull young virgins will fall from the sky and beg you to pop their cherries!

Thank you rim-tape for pimping my ride!

I would like to thank extreme3d (james) for being ultima l33t and assisting the dodsi coroporation plc on this quest for l33tness

We would also like to apologiese for over-use of the word 'l33t' and its subordinates.

EDIT i see dom agrees

Dear Sir,

I found your rim tape guide to be especially useful, however it was lacking in one respect, namely that you fail to take into account the fact the other motorcyclists may have different colour wheels. I, for example, have a rather natty set of grey wheels, what colour would you reccomend so that my bike r0xxor5 my s0xx0rs?

Dear sir,

In response to your querie on behalf of the dodsi corporation plc i would like to personally thank you for taking the time to write to us.

In respect to your query we would like to reccomend a 'rather natty grey' colour of rim tape. This would ensure uber l33tness!

Surely you could just get clear rim tape to save on the hassle of chosing a colour? Why not just do it with some sellotape?

Because that's not the point, we were trying to take the p**s out of those who are sad enough to actually have rim tape and not properly painted wheels!!
