Brad Pitt’s bikes

So Brad Pitt has some cool bikes, I must admit he’s got a good eye for bikes. I’m not saying he’s cool because I have never met the guy, and personally I’d rather be doing Jennifer than Angelina but they are both probably completely nuts.

Rigid Shovel

Rigid Evo (and this ones not gold and black, see a trend with the rest of ‘em?)

now THIS is an expensive bike…. if I have to tell you who makes these you don’t have enough money to even dream of bikes like this.

Looks like a cone shovel with a pan top end, and hardtail again, good man!

and his new bike, I have no idea???? looks like a billet aluminum v-twin of some sort….

really cool knuck chopper!

man this is way cool.

what not to do….

So I thought I would seal the tank after I painted it. Kinda stupid, but the real stupid part was to blow hot air into the tank to dry it from the rust eliminator. I cooked it and somehow the tank developed a bad case of herpes. SHIT! Go directly back to start, do not collect $200. I hate doing things twice! But what the hell, no-one is perfect…..

sneek peek at the bike

Still rebuilding the girder, and tank is prepping for sealer, so this is what I got…..

Don Bradley’s art is kick ass!

Don Bradley has some killer art, buy a print and put it over the mantle.



He did this one for Riding into History.

tins are painted

Here is the tank from lace tape to finish paint. I laid 5 coats of clear after the last picture, next is wait 3-4 days then sand then buff. These tins should look sick on the frame I finished.

Yup, you can only find us if you’re not looking
