ABOUT
A NEW LOOK FOR
YOUR LOVED BIKE

Love your bicycle but not the colour? Have an old favourite that needs a face lift? Choose your inspiration. Choose your colours. I make it happen. 

 

If you're as crazy about cycling as I am, you'll soon see why factory colours are as boring as they sound. Stand out when you ride and have your bike custom painted.

 

Your ride will be like no other on the road, mountain or course.

 

Contact me today and see how I can change your bike into something special. Whether you want to have your bike re-painted to colours you had as a kid or you want a theme or to make a statement, I can do it on your bike.

 

Love what you ride with a custom bike paint job from

Bike Be Beautiful.

HOW IT WORKS

Let's meet and talk about the kind of bike you want painted and the reasons for painting it. We'll discuss the concept, design, colours, decals, and any special additions you want to truly make your loved bike yours.

 

Not quite sure what you want? Just tell me your favourite colour, hobby, book or place and we'll go from there.

 

Time varies and depends on the complexity of the design. Cost starts at CAD $600+ and the total will be estimated once we discuss your vision.

 

Not sure how to ship your precious cargo? I'll let you know what to do to get it here safe.

 

Don't just like your ride, love it with a custom paint job from Bike Be Beautiful.

ABOUT ME

I'm Craig Lylack of

Bike Be Beautiful

and Craig Lylack Painting.

 

I've been doing commercial and residential interior and exterior painting for over 30 years. I started painting bikes when I wanted one of my own done. When I couldn't find anyone local, I did it myself and the love affair with painting bikes began. When not painting houses or bikes, I can be found cycling around my home town of Victoria, BC. on my very own Beautiful bike.

 

As a fellow cyclist my clients know I love their bike like they do. Don't trust just anyone with your bike. Trust someone who gets it.

 

Trust Bike Be Beautiful.

"PANDAmonium" This used-to-be-red hand tricycle was painted blue and themed with the client's favourite animal.

"Ginger" This client always wanted an orange bike but manufacturers only offered it in black. The honeycomb is inspired by repeating geometric shapes; a classic, timeless look.

"Ginger" Side detail on Trek bike. Pearl white with orange detail.

"Ginger" Reverse honeycomb effect on handlebars.

"Blue Boy" Custom painted blue Specialized bike. Not all paint jobs are just about changing the colour. This one was in desperate need of re-painting due to day-to-day dings. It also changed from boring white to white and blue.
