Red and White Wire Loom

I am looking for a Red and White alternating stripe wire loom. I will post a picture of a little tote goat bike that has it covering its headlight wiring. Any help locating a product like this or ideas of how to recreate it would be appreciated.

Re: Red and White Wire Loom

are you sure that's a loom, or a custom wrap job?

Re: Red and White Wire Loom

It might have been a wrap on the bike pictured but I have seen some pictures of the same bikes with a spiral loom that looks a lot like the coil bindings printers like Kinko’s put on a spiral bound notebook. But a lot more closely spaced. I will try to find some pictures of what I am talking about. I have googled about everything I can think of trying to find a similar product.

Ya, I figured as much. I haven't seen that plastic candy cane stuff around in all in my years of searching for the ultimate looms for all my home and car stereo installs...

Re: Red and White Wire Loom

The Speedway guy has about 8 different sizes & diameters of red/white alone. I'm sure lts70 can get something pretty darn close...

Re: Red and White Wire Loom

Holy crap you guys are great! Thanks a ton passthebuck. I love this site. This is what I am building to take to car shows in the back of my 70. My missing chain case and side car are in the mail and I am trying to round up the rest of the odds and ends and this definnally helps.
