The Bike Shed Shows - Paris 2016

On the 15th April 2016, we packed up the van and headed south......across the water......and over to Paris for The Bike Shed - Paris 2016 Show - 2 days of the most amazing bike builds, custom clothing & great people all put together by the brilliant group at the Bike Shed. -  We had been working for a few months on our own Harley Scrambler to ensure it was ready along with two collaborations with Down & Out Cafe Racers.

72 Motorcycles also displayed their Norton MM at the Paris show that we manufactured the yokes along with a few other parts for.  Its always great to see the finished bikes with our parts on as we don't always get to see the finished product.  This Norton is even more spectacular in person.

 

We had been approached by D&O to work with the on the new Triumph Street Twin along with a Ducati Scrambler, both of which were going to be unveiled at the Paris Show, the Street Twin on the official Triumph Stand and the the Ducati on D&O's stand.

Paris was a huge success, it was the first time we had been to a European show so were curious to see what the reactions would be like.  We had a lot of interest in the Harley, along with our bike building capabilities and CNC work so alot of great contacts were made.  For more pictures from the Paris show, check out the Bike Sheds Facebook album.

We will be doing a further post on the Harley build shortly with all the details of the build and the custom parts we designed and manufactured for it.
