Is it possible to print text or designs on the back of bibs / MTB plates?
Yes, it is possible to print on the back of bibs and MTB plates. Our high-quality printing ensures that graphics and text remain clear and durable throughout the event.
If you want to order Bibs or MTB plates with transponder, the placement of the transponder must be taken into consideration. Transponders are embedded in a designated area, which limits the printable space on the back. However, to provide you a maximum flexibility while meeting a wide range of expectations, you have four options to choose from for the backside. Each option offers unique advantages.
Please refer to the respective sub-articles for more details.
Option 1: Standard Backside Print
For bibs / MTB plates with transponders, the back comes with a standard design. The positions of the transponders vary to ensure optimal use of space within the box, reducing shipping costs as much as possible.
This option is provided at no additional cost.
