Wraps forNew York riders.

Wrapping a bike in New York has one real obstacle, and it isn’t the wrap. It’s that everything involves moving the bike somewhere, and moving the bike somewhere in this city is never simple. So I move it. The van collects from Manhattan and the outer boroughs, the film goes on at the Jersey City garage, and the bike comes back to you.

From where you are

New York City,specifically.

  • 01

    One garage, and it isn't in the city

    Manhattan, Queens, the Bronx, Staten Island — pickup starts at $75, or $150 with return delivery. There is no K Films bay in the five boroughs and I’m not going to imply there is. The bench is in Jersey City and that’s where your bike gets wrapped.

    Your parking spot stays yours

    If the bike lives in a garage you pay monthly for, or in a spot you’ve negotiated with a whole block, the last thing you want is a three-day errand that starts and ends with re-parking. Hand it over at the kerb and get it back at the kerb.

    A city bike is a working bike

    Bikes that get ridden through this city carry the evidence: heat-marked plastics, kerb rash, a tank worn where a jacket buckle sits for an hour a day. Cast film covers a lot of that honestly, and tank protection film stops the worn spot coming straight back. Send photos and I’ll tell you which you’re actually looking at.

Getting the bike here

Three ways,one of them free.

NYC is a pickup zone. The work happens across the river in Jersey City, and the quote will say so. Transport is quoted with the build, never charged up front.

No charge

Ride it over yourself

If you don’t mind the trip to Jersey City, drop-off is free. Plenty of riders would rather not do it twice.

From $75

We collect it

The van comes to you and the bike goes to the studio. Say where it’s parked and whether it runs.

From $150

Collect and return

Picked up before the build, delivered back after. You never move it yourself.

Straight answers

New York City questions.

All questions

No. One garage, in Jersey City, appointment only. Manhattan and the outer boroughs are served by pickup — the bike travels to the bench, not the other way round.

Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx and Staten Island. Pickup starts at $75. If you’re further out than that, say where you are when you start your build and I’ll tell you honestly whether I can reach you rather than quote first and work it out later.

No — a wrap needs a clean, warm, dust-controlled space and a couple of days, which is exactly what a kerb in New York is not. Anything installed in a hurry outdoors will lift at the edges, and you’d be looking at it every time you walked up to the bike.

Start your build online with the bike’s details and photos. The written quote that comes back has transport as its own line, so you see it before you agree to anything.
