New Wave custom bike builders have had an undeniable impact on motorcycle culture, particularly in the last decade. They’ve inspired a new generation of riders, back-garden/shed custom bike builders. And, importantly they’ve helped shape factory motorcycle design, through bold custom creations. Here we cover custom bike builds including cafe racers, bobbers, brat style, scrambler and tracker builds. And occasionally, we’ll cover the individuals who create the bikes – whether professional workshops or backyard bike builders.
