Review
American Iron, May 2006 (circ.: 134,000) “Don’t expect to get a step-by-step process of how to build a bike from scratch. That’s not what this book is about, which is exactly why it’s such a great read. [It’s] more of a ‘How I build’ versus a ‘How-to build’ book, and one that offers valuable tips and insight to the aspiring shop rat. In other words, it’s a must-have.”

This book also covers custom-building beyond the chopper genre, including the building of "bobbers," an old-school style of custom that has been revived as a hot trend. Predating choppers, they are on the cutting edge of current biker "cool," for real riding, and are much safer and more functional than choppers.
