Matt and RideWrap® Santa Cruz, CA Did an Outstanding Job! Matt @ RideWrap® Santa Cruz, CA was fantastic to work with! They installed the following on my 2024 Yeti SB140 LR: • Yeti SB140 - RideWrap Tailored Protection™ Frame Kit (Matte) • Fox 36 - RideWrap Tailored Protection™ Fork Kit (Gloss) The results? Absolutely Perfect! I've had frame and fork protection installed on my last six bikes, so I have some experience. My first two bikes were done with invisiFRAME®, which I installed myself - a challenging and time-consuming process. For my next three, I stuck with invisiFRAME® but had a local bike shop handle the installation. My sixth bike was protected by Fanatik Bikes in Bellingham, WA, using RideWrap®, and I have to say, while it's tough to compare directly, the RideWrap® PPF material feels more durable than invisiFRAME®. Out of the overall seven times that I had PPF installed on my bikes, the best job was done by the guys @ RideWrap® Santa Cruz, CA. Even though I had to make the drive from the East Bay Area twice (for drop-off and pick-up), it was completely worth it. No regrets at all! I'll 100% be bringing my next bike build to these guys. Thanks again, Matt and the RideWrap® team!

What can I say… this experience has simply been above and beyond what customer service, friendliness & professional bicycle attention are all about! The shop’s owner/manager Matt went out of his way to help me out when I was suddenly struck sick and unable to get back up there to retrieve my frame that he’d custom wrapped for me. I won’t forget what his kindness and understanding meant, over the course of too many long months not being able to ride a bike. The end product is absolutely stunning and couldn’t be happier, much less looking forward with great anticipation to complete the build of this frame and finally get back to rolling! If you’re contemplating whether to invest in this product/service, I without question recommend sending your bike to him in northern California… you won’t be sorry. THANK YOU MATT!! ☺️👍🚲

What an excellent customer experience. Matt (owner) and his team provided spot on service. If you're in the greater Bay area I don't believe there's any other installer of RideWrap that can beat their price and, maybe more importantly, their level of perfection. It's more than worth the effort to make it down (or up) to Santa Cruz if you're looking to have a frame done.

I have 3 experiences with Ridewrap. 1. Myself - No matter how hard I tried, it was terrible 2. Local "Professional" - Paid someone to do a job better than I ever can, but the seams were crooked, and there were bubbles. 3. Official Ridewrap (Santa Cruz) - Spent the money to ship two frames and two forks, and spent less money paying Ridewrap Pro (Matt is extremely awesome) to install it to near perfection. When I got the frames and forks back from Ridewrap, I thought they didn't install anything on it. They did such a beautiful and near perfect job that I couldn't even tell that Ridewrap was installed. And the icing on the cake is that Ridewrap themselves charged less than supposed "local pros", and definitely less than what I would have spent having to replace poorly installed pieces of my failures if I continued the install myself. I was so impressed with the level of work, cost of labor, and overall customer service of Ridewrap that every single bike I own and will own in the future will go straight to Ridewrap before hitting the trails.

I had my bike's frame wrapped by Matt/his team at Santa Cruz location. Matt went out of his way to assist me. Absolute the best caring person. And the wrapping is flawless. Thank you so much Matt.

RideWrap is legit. I brought in my Specialized Enduro S-Works to get it wrapped. Matt Watts is at absolute professional. I was too chicken to wrap it myself and dropped it off and the MTB literally looks brand new. It's truly a skill to wrap the bikes. He is super knowledgeable, friendly and overall nice dude. Would highly recommend wrapping your bike and if you're too chicken to do it yourself have these guys do it for you. Awesome stuff.

I wanted the BEST frame protection for my new Canyon Spectral Mountain Bike and Ride Wrap Tailored Frame Wrap Kit was what every new bike owner should get. I went to the Ride Wrap Shop In Santa Cruz. For Carbon Frame Bikes this is what I consider a MUST !! The kits come in three levels which I picked the highest level for my bike. I'd say it covers 90% of the exposed frame in all critical areas. The guys at the Santa Cruz shop did a FLAWLESS install !! For what todays MTB bikes are selling for why wouldn't you pay for the best protection available. It's guaranteed not to fade or yellow for 10 years. It comes in a Gloss or Matte for the best looking coverage as well. The hardest part for me was not riding my bike until I could get in installed. Thanks to Matt and the guys at the Santa Cruz Ride Wrap Shop

I recently repainted my frame and was looking for a way to protect the fresh paint. In the past, I tried to use protective tape on my head tube but failed at the application miserably. This time I decided to leave it to the pros. Ride Wrap did an amazing job on my bike. The bike has gloss paint and I chose gloss Covered Kit. When I saw my bike I thought nothing was done on it! The wrap is completely invisible! I will be a returning customer if I’ll ever buy a new bike, and totally recommend it for anybody. Worth every penny!

I wrapped my last bike on my own and let me tell you - the amount of hours required to do it and with subpar results, do yourself a favor and get these guys to wrap your bike for you. Perfectly wrapped, zero bubbles anywhere. The crew did an amazing job on my bike
