From a designers standpoint...how cool is this show?
- illdesign0
Nobody watches these guys? Its a show on Discovery and the way they labor and design these bikes is fun to watch.

i love it although some of their bikes have too much going on for me to actually buy one.
the one modeled after the new helicopter was ace.

right, it is very cool and they do great work, but some of them are sooo tacky.
- illdesign0
Yeah, I dont know about those blades they add to the back tire shield... they might over-design a little...but they are inspired.
- floater0
very cool, love that show.
skilzzzzz

hah, that show is funny. Senior and Junior always fighting. I like the show...there is also another show but the build hot rods or something... bluebear and them....
- illdesign0
Whos tacky, they are or their work? Or both? I wouldnt agree on any level.

kewl
- illdesign0
And I like the atmosphere they work in, I wish more design offices were like that and not so estrogen fueled...(at least the ones Ive worked in)
- floater0
you wish you had a tubing bender next to your G5?
- robotron3k0
yeah, those boltheads need lot's of help as far as style. none of their choppers look comfortable, unless you think riding with your arms straight out infront of you is comfortable.... the coolest thing about them is that have all these tools to make cool stuff, but in the end, they make sheeot on two wheels that only rich guys can buy because they saw the show on tv...

that's what choppers are all about though. you don't want to ride with your arms down by your sides, you'd look like a tool.

I wish I had a G5...period. A 2.5 ghz dual....
- illdesign0
and a giant cinema display and a water pressure metal cutter station too....
- mrdobolina0
nah, ill I meant the bikes are just overdone sometimes. also I saw purple metal flake with green flames. thats an odd pairing.
- gruntt0
that show cracks me up... sometimes the bikes are a bit ugly but the workmanship and dedication wins me over.
- floater0
yeah, that would tight. i'd get on the tig and fab up some shit for my G5.
