World Biker Build-Off | Episode 2

World Biker Build-Off | E02

[@garystratton4125]

The Aussies are some REAL fabricators... I mean WoW ! What excellent craftsmanship. I have built a couple choppers in my day and everyone has their own idea of what a bike should look like.

Scottys bike would look good today to where this era in bikes is long gone and not missed by many

[@richardbarr6814]

Meaning l love Scottys. bike but choppers and huve tires and OCC clown bikes are an era gone by and lm happy . I think stock configuration RoadKing Sportster iron or Streetrods are beautiful needing nothing

[@Mulisha666]

THATS THE DAMN TRUTH!!!!! ​@richardbarr6814

[@alfaman4113]

For those who don’t live in Australia, the 2 black and white birds at the start of the Australian build are called Magpies. And if you happen to walk under a tree we’re they have built a nest, they will fly down and rip your eyes out

[@donovanwilliams29]

Oh you mean Heckyl and Jeckyl

[@oscatadic540]

They’ll tip your eyes out and go after your family mate

[@Scrapla1]

Aussie dude did some amazing work!

[@marylandflyer5670]

This episode was great - builders are all interesting, and there was no continual faux heavy metal guitar riffs playing over the soundtrack.

[@kevinmyles1158]

I think the Australia 🇦🇺 vision looks the best. I like the hammer method.

[@geraldstephenson2755]

maybe its cause i prefer the old school style of bikes more of the bobber or a bit diffrent style of chopper and dont like the super long or sharp pointed bikes of today. but enland did the best bike by far imo.

[@brianholbrook4159]

If its about BIke BUILDING, the Aussies win period!!!!! They fabricated every inch of that bike!!!!!

[@Wiiguyface342]

Indeed

[@coreypillot7048]

They said we are a bunch of criminals considering America has had how many shootings ??

[@Pure_KodiakWILD_Power]

@larry ballard why not smelt the metals while they're at it 😂

[@daytonasayswhat9333]

They build the frame, gas tank, and exhaust. Not any of the drive train, controls, etc.

[@joesmoke9679]

They just covered a frame

[@mugshotmarley]

That English dudes exhaust pipe fabrication was an abomination

[@Tom-mk7iq]

The springer front end was dope!!

[@dylanhinton2386]

No it definitely was not...

It's nice that Harry Potter has found work advising Scotty.

aussie bike no filler and the workmanship..no wonder joe had cover his bike in filler his welds are shocking!!

[@everettgrover9459]

col bikes true, but the aussie bike was unpainted and had to have perfect body work, the martin bros bike could hide some of their imperfect fab work with body filler, which isnt a bad thing if done the right way

[@Raxxis373]

Martin bros. Are crazy ! I love that frontEnd!

[@spyke123able]

Arrogant Englishman I'm sure I measured it right/ I told him to paint that tank/It wasn't me that was the reason for our failure!

Too bad they didn't keep it

[@packpock4369]

He's fab and paint work. He does amazing things with paint.

[@drewm558]

Aussies an American’s true Champions! English guy just assembled his bike!!!

[@dingo3077]

I loved that front end..It was badassery and innovative

[@coreypierce4888]

I hate the English team because they did nothing. "The biggest event of the build was getting the flames on the wrong gas tank." and he constantly blamed the painter and took no responsibility for himself.

[@christopherjones8911]

I agree with you on the idea

How some of these guys manage to paint such perfect lines by hand is beyond me.. The only word to describe the level of skill is "wow!".

[@bigdad9498]

Just when I thought it couldn't get any better, it does. 24:49 Vise grips? I liked his heart warming words his father spoke to him. My father told me to use the right tool for the job. Vise grips and crescent wrenches are not the tools of choice when building a high end bikes

[@eskimoto4417]

[@williammills3632]

I think if people watched these episodes before they voted. The aussies would have won hands down. Their work is 👏 awesome. They actually built a bike. Didn't assemble it

[@Machina_Official]

😘 Oi oi! Cheers, Mate!

[@draggngmac386]

I appreciate the craftsmanship of team USA and Australia but in my humble opinion, the UK teams bike looks the best to me

[@T0tenkampf]

so you like the off the shelf bike with no craft involved, lol. As far as a bobber goes they are perfect though.

[@kcookish]

i personally think that front end looks sweet, as long as it will perform safely... it goes with the flow of the bike for sure.....

[@garystratton4125]

No Clash there with the springer... Come on man.. Oh NO! I disagree with not using that beautiful springer.

[@-_-Code-_-]

turn signals... add to the complexity... thats a new one on me.

[@williammalouhos815]

I REMEMBER SEEING THIS A FEW YEARS AGO ON TV THEN I COULDNT BELIVE THE AUSSE BOYS DIDNT WIN AND NOW SEEING IT AGIAN THIER BIKE IS SO MUCH BETTER IN EVERY WAY LOOKS AND WORKMAN SHIP ITS A CRIME THEY DIDNT GET THE RECOGNITION THEY DESERV BIKE IS AWSOME

[@richardbarr6814]

I like stock configured bikes. Scotty's build looked massaged like a factory custom Tasteful well engineered stunning. All bikes are ok to cool but Scotty's are the best l be seen and is to my liking. Damn lm impressed

[@bigdad9498]

16:28 to 18:42. He wanted to come over himself to make sure the flames is exactly what he was wanting. I keep hearing the word (Professionals) being used. However the wrong tank got painted! 23:43 to 24:13, This guy is mental. No wires should be a little bit snug on a machine that all it does is vibrate! That's how failures happen. Got to love the quote, his bikes don't have safety features like blinkers which adds to the complexity of the wiring. That's what separates the good builders from the bad. Blinkers are not that hard to wire up, maybe to complex for some people. Well if he can't tell the painter what tank is what, he really shouldn't be wiring up blinkers anyway!

[@maakamakana7007]

havent seen the end yet, but that digger from australia beats the other two on sheer work load by myself...such skill. a real bike builder..pity the crowd voting dont get to see the video first

[@SinisterCity]

That Aussie 🇦🇺 bike though man! Wow! Beautiful lines on that chopper crafted by amazing Artists and some down to earth guys, who seem like you could crack open a cold one with. The UK Team seemed super arrogant for someone who builds some pretty average looking bikes. I wouldn’t even want that bike, even if I was given that bike for free. I’d just sell it and buy one of the other two bikes. Nothing was really eye popping or incredibly special about that bike. But like they say _One Man’s Trash Is Another Man’s Treasure_

[@samuelwhite2562]

They didn't build or fabricate it they should have been disqualified they just used premade parts

[@Despond]

@@samuelwhite2562 For real? That's messed up then.

[@joelgarner2430]

I liked the Springer way more

[@joehentalack2443]

I came across a bike once,it had a see-threw gaz tank(lit with red led)...It looked magical...I hope they keep that Springer front end for another project....!!!!!

[@MCF961]

Russel talks a big game for bolting a bike together.

[@user-pp7tn9ir8u]

Australia builder Scott was hands down best custom builder imo

[@mrgonzales5683]

Paul Yaffe ,and The Martin Bros make the UGLIEST choppers around ! Too damn un-maneuverable low, sleek ,and long SMH ! I wouldn't be caught dead riding one lol !

[@christopherwagner5643]

i love the first way they were going you can send me the springer front end that needs to be on my frame and hopefully you guys didnt chop it and you can build me the rest of the bike when you guys are done playn around with your ideas im liking the real nastaljic look you guys were on your way doing the first time. no a fence you guys are good.

[@garykeenan3724]

I like that long springer look!!!

[@Ogscottyp]

Where are they now? Russell is selling used KIA in Deleuth.

superbe la femme de l'australien, très féminine !!!

[@A6Legit]

I think they made a mistake taking the long springer front end off. It looked better.

[@KowboyUSA]

Dudes, you should've stayed with a springer - just shorter.

[@Jesse-B]

Well I kinda liked it myself.

[@j_rainsgoat3929]

They should have at least brought bike down off the lift to see how well it set.

[@evo9467]

Please tell me the Americans kept the long curved forks! That front end is so badass!!! I'll keep watching now.

[@bobby3704]

that arch springer look clean .. unique should of flow with it . it gave it another style of chopper

[@jasonpowell5662]

I love Joe Martin's bike

I'm sure you would prefer this era where men dress as women and shove a big black cucumber up your ass

Exile may have "just assembled" their bike but their parts are perfection and practical. The others are unridable

[@ImBackItsDad]

exile were complete and utter douchebags that took zero responsibility for misinforming a painter and the length of their clutch cables lol

[@daytonasayswhat9333]

The specifics instruction of the contest were to build something progressive, unusual and unique. It wasn’t about ride ability, per se.

[@joepeanut6827]

POOR POOR Russel, he has to use his mind to make part's. Instead of using off the shelf part's 🙈🙈🙈🙈 POOR POOR erigent Russell

[@maddoxbromley6426]

so far for me its a toss up bt Brit and Aussie bikes. Not really digging the Texas bike but its all personal pref of course

[@donniegrande9186]

[@johnodo764]

Best part of the build was the new flag!

[@austin4x]

Forgive me for not knowing his name but the blonde dude on the American team should open his own shop where every bike looks the same. He's obviously against anything outside of the box and shoots down a couple ideas in this episode that really would have made their bike stand out. The springs. The rear fender he didn't like but didn't shoot it down. Dude has no vision. He even admits it at one point when he says a lot of times he's not on board till he sees the finished product and realizes he was wrong. He should be designing roller skates or skate boards and leave the big boy toys to the guys with vision beyond 2 wheels and a gas tank.

[@davidjohns4223]

[@A6Legit]

7:58 "no wifes"

[@sexybluelady]

Team England are not bike builders, they just pick up parts off of the shelve and bolt things together. The guys don't even know how to machine, paint or custom ANYTHING! Bla Bike assemblers not "builders".

[@b.ramquist8704]

Sexybluelady .lady Post some of your builds for us.

[@sexybluelady]

What does that have to do with the point that they are assembling bikes and not building them? There on a show that is suppose to be about people building bikes BUILDING... If I tune into a show that says it's about basketballs but instead shows kids in a Chinese sweat shop making baseballs, I have the fucking right to point out the fact that it is about a Chinese baseballs sweat shop and not basketballs like promised. I wanted to see two different shops build a fucking bike like the show promised, not one guy just pull parts off of the shelve and pay someone else to make everything, while the guys in the other shop machine everything and come up with all of their own shit. Present what is being advertise to people.

[@b.ramquist8704]

Sexybluelady .lady Sorry, i thought you were a fabricator. I am building a bike right now and happen to agree with you. Take a deep breath, calm yourself, jeesh.

[@sexybluelady]

My bad, it's the internet so you know how things go sometimes... Off topic I have built a bike(s) though it's on chopcult didn't post up finish pictures, but when I built it I didn't have access to a lathe or a mill or TIG, but I have those now so let the fun begin. :D

[@b.ramquist8704]

Sexybluelady .lady Cool, shape some metal. I'm building a metric "bobber" as we speak. Bike had a double back-bone, so I had to cut it off(the devil made me do it) for my 2 gallon peanut tank. I'm making a fake oil tank right now to hide all the electronics, wiring etc. It's a shaft drive bike so it's tougher trying to make it cool, but so far so good. Have fun with it, anything is possible when you can melt steel.

Working with aluminum makes fab a lot easier, is that stuff getting treated to T5-T7. Also, with aluminum I worry about corrosion and fatigue cracks.

[@derekgrant3417]

he only said it a hundred times lmao

[@studley2436]

Fair bit of aluminium in their build. Beating metal you want to have a dolly of some sort you can have underneath to hit against. The advantage of using timber is you can work it quickly and easily. It is great if you are only doing one part from it or a small number. If you wanted a tool to last longer you'd use steel or cast iron. That said Aussie hardwoods are much stronger and harder than timber like oak and teak.

[@T0tenkampf]

Exile bikes are 10/10 for the vision that they are trying to achieve but as far as customs go they shouldn't be in the same conversation as the other 2 builders. This owner is kinda annoying with all his talk about tough when he was a Sting body double model before Exile and how it takes a real craftsman to lace a wheel when he outsources his paint and 90% of the fabrication on his own assembled build. I have seen Martin paintjobs in person and they are top notch, although not any from 2015. Never heard of the Aussie guys but they are really impressive. With the small bit of metalforming I have done I really like hammer forming around a wooden buck versus a rough shape with a shot bag and then needing an expensive english wheel. The fender rollers are a really cool idea too.

[@34stzoo]

I've been saying the reason OCC never participated in a bike build-off was that they will have to ride their bikes over 200 miles. I'm not saying their bikes are cheaply made because they're not... Maybe the motors? Is because they're so uncomfortable to ride. The rigged style they build their bikes is not good for long-distance riding.
