While we’re best known for our custom-built cycles, we’ve spent years collaborating with film studios, YouTubers, and creative agencies to bring some truly unconventional projects to life. If you have a unique build that needs creating, we’d love to hear from you!

A quick heads-up on custom builds:

  • Why the higher price? These one-off creations require much more “brain power” and engineering time than our shop favorites, so they do carry a higher price tag.

  • Project Selection: To ensure every build is safe and high-quality, we can only take on about one-fifth of the custom requests we receive. If we aren’t able to move forward with your idea this time, please don’t take it personally—we have to be very selective with our workshop schedule!
