When I am asked what kind of customized bikes people will want to ride next year, in 5 years or in the future, I usually answer that I don’t care. When I started building custom bikes professionally 15 years ago, I made a choice that I never reneged on: to never to duplicate a one-off bike built for a client, even its color, whatever the amount of money offered to me. There is just something about each individual that sets him apart. So, since two clients will never be alike, the same should be true of their custom motorcycles. It’s what true custom builders do: they innovate for each client. Because we are a close knit community, yes we launch big new trends, choppers, bobbers or whatever. But inside each trend a true custom builder can be identified by the fact that with each new project he is able somewhat to reinvent a style, to bring new ideas mechanically & aesthetically. It’s what makes him a true custom builder.
