DYEDBRO EVO Gravel frame protection kits are designed specifically to fit a wide range of gravel bike frame designs, providing crucial, low-profile protection against trail and road-side scuffs and abrasions. Thanks to the material's greater elasticity, it expertly conforms to the intricate tubes and transitions of a gravel frame, giving it a clean, awesome look.
Our graphic kits put us on the map, but EVO is the stealth evolution of the species. We took a decade of rider DNA, back-country testing, and raw exploration, and distilled it into an entirely clear, high-performance second skin for your gravel rig.
We built EVO to follow every line, every hit, and every descent. It’s a low-profile, invisible shield designed to take the brunt of high-velocity gravel spray, harsh frame bag rub, and tire-flung debris without hiding your factory paint job. Whether you’re racing a fast-paced gravel event or loaded down for a multi-day bike packing trip, EVO wraps seamlessly around your frame’s geometry and disappears the moment it’s locked down.

THE WET-INSTALL ADVANTAGE
Unlike our traditional kits that require heat, EVO is engineered for a soap-and-water application. It’s faster, more precise, and easier to get a factory finish at home.
MAXIMUM FLEXIBILITY
A high-elasticity film that conforms more easily than conventional protectors to the most hard-to-reach areas of the frame, as well as the beefy tubes of E-Bikes and the sleek lines of Gravel bikes.
SELF-HEALING DNA
EVO is like a “smart skin” for your frame. Small scratches or surface marks disappear when exposed to ambient heat or warm water, as the film’s molecules return to their original state, eliminating these minor imperfections. This self-healing capability helps the surface maintain its appearance and finish for a much longer time.
DYEDBRO EVO INSTALLATION
Forget traditional frame tape that requires hair dryers and precision heating. The EVO series uses a full wet-install layout. Just mix the included soap sachet with water, spray down your clean frame, slide the film exactly where you want it, and squeegee it down with the scraper. It's the easiest way to get a bubble-free, factory-fresh finish in your own garage.
Before installation, first thoroughly clean the bicycle frame using a mixture of 50% alcohol and 50% water (some paint finishes can be damaged by 100% alcohol)
Mix the soap sachet included in the box with between 750 ml and 1 liter of water. Spray the solution onto the area of the frame where the piece will be installed, as well as onto the vinyl itself.
Wet your fingers when handling the protector to avoid leaving fingerprints on the material.
Place the piece in position. Initially, use only your fingers to adjust the vinyl. Once correctly positioned, continue pressing the vinyl into place with your fingers. Afterwards, you can gently use the scraper to remove the water trapped underneath.
Finally, and only at the very end, you can apply a small amount of heat using a hair dryer or heat gun to help evaporate any remaining water. Important: do not apply excessive heat.
After 24 hours, it is recommended to check the entire installation again. This material gradually evaporates the remaining water, and the final result improves especially after 48 hours.
We recommend not riding the bicycle until at least 24 hours after installation.
PLEASE NOTE
Certain paint finishes, notably fluoro tones, can be prone to fading over time and areas covered by the frame protection may age differently to exposed paintwork.
