Hecka Tight...

Aw yeah. Picked up my ltd. edition plaid Cardiel board today. Sucker came with all the Epicly Later'd episodes on a DVD.

It's on.

4Q Conditioning

This Tank was a joint Mullins Chaindrive/4Q deal. Mullins did the fab work and Max painted it. The tank ended up in Japan.

Heaven. What I wouldn't do for a shop like this.

I believe this bike belongs to Scott Pommier, the skate photographer. Great frame, and that ribbed exhaust tubing is really growing on me. I saw a Kutty Noteboom bike with the same stuff and it looked great.

Scott Craig's Panhead

I saw this bike first in an Ol' Skool Rodz magazine a couple of months ago. I love the old HD front end and the bars.

Joey Castillo's Evo.

I haven't posted any evo shots on our blog, mainly 'cos I don't really like them. But I'm making an exception for this bike for two reasons; first, it was built by Powerplant Choppers and they build some great bikes and second, it belongs to Joey Castillo from Queens of the Stone Age. He's a tight drummer and a pretty hardcore skater too. He did a cool interview with Steve Olson in Juice Magazine a little while ago. Check it out.

Max & Salman

Salman Agah was straight up one of the gnarliest switch skaters of my youth. I heard a story once where the photo department of a skate rag refused to print a shot of Salman that was labelled switch 'cos they were convinced the slide was flopped. Rad.

Weekend fix.

Nice fixie, and Church of Choppers and Cycle Zombies flair too!

Get some.

Gnarly. Trevelen and his Super Co. Customs "El Peligroso" Knuck. I'm trying to find a shot of the engraved knucklehead motor. If I do I'll throw it up too.

Kinda the opposite of Shaff's 4Q bike in a way, but so cool nonetheless. Remember;

Your Next.

Max Schaff shovelhead

I found this picture of a beautiful shovelhead that shows really well what I love about Max's bikes. There's nothing extraneous on there, no billet junk, no excess chrome, not too many "blacked-out" parts. Just super-clean lines, and a great idea of what a bike can be. Like it says on the Church of Choppers blog; "Don't Trend On Me."

Johnny can't skate...

Cardiel may not be skating like he used to, but if I tried a wallride on a fixie you'd be pickin' my teeth out of the concrete for sure. John just proves "once a skater, always a skater."
