This is a long shot.....

Have done some research online but can't find anywhere to get stickers/decals to put onto my Giro Synthe!!

Nothing flashy just a personalised colour scheme. I've seen an american pro team with green/white but this can't be purchased.....

Where do the pro teams get this personalised stuff done?

    You are probably looking in the wrong place, google car vinyl and look for a local vehicle graphics company.
    They will have a digital vinyl cutter and 100's of different coloured vinyls to choose from.
    All you need to do is provide them with a template and they can cut you any shape you require.

    Funnily enough I was looking into doing the same thing. I did find one graphics set from an American company, but it wasn't something I liked the look of.

    I wonder how difficult it would be to do yourself with some vinyl... I only really want to add a couple of colours onto the central "bananas".

    Thanks for the advice lads......

    The car vinyl route is definitely the route to go. This is a template I stumbled across in my searching, it's somewhat more elaborate than I require but it's the only thing I could find:

    From their helmet suppliers usually, as part of the support deal. One-off custom jobs are usually done with an airbrush.

    You potentially run the risk of voiding the warranty. If that's something that's important to you.

    Print it yourself if you have a printer. Cut it to shape and voila.
