Sacred Steel Customs: Shop Crawl

19/19 Address

Four whores and seven beers ago, our fathers in customizing brought forth on this industry a new style, conceived in steel and dedicated to the proposition that all kustoms are not created equal.

Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether any builder or fabricator claiming true dedication can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of metal creation. We have come to dedicate these customs as the true measure of those who give their lives and loved ones that the shop might live on. This is all we know and are compelled to do so.

But in a larger sense we cannot consecrate this industry. The brave men living and dead who forged the kulture in its infancy have consecrated it, far above our ability to add or detract. The world will barely notice or remember what is said in this article, but will never forget what the creations of Roth, Dutch, Indian Larry, and Denver have done. It is our duty as the living to carry on the unfinished work of these legends in the uncompromising style they emulate. We must revere these men and ensure those that died did not die in vain, that this industry under attack shall have a new birth of freedom- saying $%@! the government and all the nay-sayers, swearing this shop shall not perish from this earth.

Sacred Steel is based on the Southern California punk rock style and infused with traditional craftsmanship and values, painstakingly hand-shaping every piece out of necessity rather than choice. This method of building has become our style and created our current state of mind and approach toward making every part. In the footsteps of the great kustomizers before us, we are never satisfied with stock and are fearless to cut up even the most rare of motorcycles. In this day and age, "bike builders" have become celebrities (with egos to match), charging absurd prices for cheap parts that are far from individual and stylistic. Customers are told what is cool and receive a bike that isn't their own dream, but the vision of a so called "artist." We do not subscribe to this idea and strive to create a machine straight from the heart and soul of the designer (you) and the builder (us), so that when you leave our shop every expectation has been fulfilled.
