After the exposure The Brat got on bikeEXIF, Cyril Huze Blog, Build Threads, Moto Preserve, Inazuma Cafe Racer, Zen Garage, Sydney Cafe Racers, The Bike Shed and it’s appearance at the All Japanese Bike Show and the Perth Motorcycle Show (I’m just showing off aren’t I?) we had a fair bit of interest from other people to build them a bike.

Usually we like to build bikes for ourselves and then keep them or offer them for sale. That way there is very little compromise Fortunately the guys who want us to build bikes for them at the moment have crazy ideas or give us a lot of artistic freedom with the build.

Another benefit of getting the worldwide exposure from the blogs etc is that we’ve had people from all over the world approach us, asking to make parts for their bikes, offer to make parts for our bikes, offer to work for us, offer their bikes to us when we are in the USA or England and be a contributor to various blogs. It has been amazing.

One thing I noticed when i did my usual searching of Tumblr everyday was these fantastic looking designs by Dorian Sanders of this is sanity. I asked Dorian if he would be happy to come up with a few design concepts for us to show to our clients to which he happily agreed. Here are a few of his designs that can be seen on his tumblr site as well as some he has done for us.   

Apart from Dorian in the USA doing design work for us, we have David in France building us a unique hand made tank and seat unit out of Aluminium and Jon in the USA hand painting us a tank. We look forward to working with other artists around the world. If you feel you have something to offer, please contact us.
