Bobbers are the hottest style in the custom bike market, and now
you can afford one without paying a fortune! All you need to make a
killer custom bike is a set of tools, a little know-how, and
imagination and creative vision. Despite the rise of high-priced
Gucci cycles, the true custom bike is still affordable, and can be
built by you on a budget - and cheaper than buying a new one! Jose
de Miguel is an experienced motorcycle custom builder, and in
clear, simple, easy to follow terms, he shows readers how to turn
odds and ends into one-off motorcycle parts and turn a cheap,
run-of-the mill custom bike into a drop-dead show stopper! Clear
and straightforward instructions are given, along with full
illustrations of the projects, showing how any owner with
rudimentary skills, a basic tool kit, a little resourcefulness, and
- perhaps more importantly - a lot of imagination can build the
Bobber of their dreams...and all on a budget!
