Answer
You can buy stencils and decals on line or in specialty stores. Any body shop that works on custom paint can handle this.

How much should I expect to spend on a bicycle to commute to work?

I'm going to be starting a new job a mile and a half away from where I live. I'm thinking abut getting a bicycle. How much should I expect to spend? Include helmet, lights, etc.

Answer
ESTIMATED COSTS:
helmet $25+ (USA sold helmets are all tested / approved)
lights $50+ (probably not good idea to be cheap here)
bike $50-150 (used 10-speed road/mtn bike)
spare tubes: $3 or less ( always have spares )
patch kit + lever: $2 + $3 ( master this to save $$$ )
puncture resistant tires: $50+ / pair
U-lock: $25-40 (get newer models from kryptonite brand)

look to spend ~ $250-350

OPTIONAL (suggested)
general bike maintenance manual: $10
mini multi-tool: $10-20
drink cage + bottle: $12

SHOPPING (saving money):
buying a used bike: craigslist.org (great site for locals ~ free)
buying all other stuff: performance bike (retail store nationwide)

ebay is also a great place to compare prices when shopping at retail or bargaining with sellers on craigslist

if you plan to buy a new bike, usually buy it from a local bike shop than a retail; retailers tend to be less personal and won't help you if you have problems later. A good store might help you on craigslist!

note: better quality bikes are easier to take apart, therefore, easier to maintain / fix - cheap bikes are mostly proprietary and need a lot of "custom" parts most of the time.
