Lastnight on Discovery Channels Biker Build-off the competing builders were Scott Long of Central Coast Cycles in Santa Cruz, CA and Trevelen of Super Company Customs in Los Angeles, CA.
Both builders came up with some really great old school bikes but Trevelen’s bike was completely and totally wicked. The frame that Trevelen built was just awesome. Really liked the ribbed steel he used for the down tubes. This guy and his crew are truely great fabricators.
Trevelen’s El Peligroso Chopper
Above is a pic of Trevelen’s creation. The blue chopper named El Peligroso (Dangerous). I like very much.
Trevelen did win the build off over Scott Long and in my opinion the better bike did win. Scott’s bike was nice and the paint job was pretty kick ass but over all I just did not pick up on anything really special about the bike he built. I did like the oil bag that they put together using two Twin Cam jugs. That came out pretty sweet. Probably the only thing on the bike that really jumps out.
Scott Long’s Biker Build Off Bike
The old school touchs on Trevelen’s bike just really set it off. Trevelen did have some trouble with his motor burning up oil on the last few miles of the 1000 mile trip from LA to Albuquerque, NM for the judging but he did make the ride. Would like to know what happened to the motor. Did some searching around the net to see if anyone had posted anything about the troubles but could not find anything. Anyone know?

Hey! Why would you use MY photos, and not give me any credit?
Did not realize they were your photos. I am not even sure how I came across these pics. Would be glad to give you credit. The web address you used in your comment goes to a file not found page on flicker. Post your site and I will include it in the post. As long as it is ok that I use the pics, if not let me know and I will remove them.
Did you catch Monday’s biker build-off (Roland Sands vs. Jesse Rooke)? I have some concerns about this one. Custom built race bikes were a stroke of genius for Hugh King. But, the misuse of sex and violence, were unexcusable. My 12 year old is a big fan and this caused some unexpected and life lesson questions. Let me know what you think, and I’ll explain.
A badass motor for sure! It can use some kick ass stickers to pimp it even more though ;)
I wrote a similar blog about this subject but you did a better job :) watch the hurt locker online
