Dolmette Chinsaw Motorcycle Chops It Up

dolmarchainsawbike_main.jpg
Max Max showed us what chopper bikes should be—road hogs that look and sound like they’re about to shred the street to bits. Chainsaw manufacturer Dolmar is moving one step closer to making that a reality with a motorcycle that runs on 24 chainsaw motors, each of which must be started individually.

The Dolmette, as the German company like to call it, is no slothy gardening vehicle. Since it uses the light-weight engines (combined with Harley-Davidson transmission), it’s just as fast as traditional bikes, just a little longer in length. Watch the beast action below…

Dzine’s Lowrider Bikes Ride Into Deitch Gallery

lowriderbike1.jpg
Having your work showcased at New York’s Deitch Gallery is kind of a big deal. Some of today’s great modern artists from the Beautiful Losers collective (i.e. Barry McGee, Steve “ESPO” Powers, Aaron Rose) paved the way for a new generation of cutting-edge shows like The Beautiful Struggle, the current exhibit from Chicago artist Dzine. One of the most talked-about aspects of the show seems to be these tricked-out low rider bikes that would make Xzibit jealous.

Dzine set out to combine the flashy design of low-rider culture with his own artistic palette that’s influenced by Buddhist traditions. Touches that the Puerto Rican artist added to the cruisers range from twisted metal spokes to sparkling gold frames. He also created a motorboat with a pair of LCD TVs on the stern. Until Dzine’s rides becomes street-safe, you can see his show at Deitch through October 19th. Check out more photos below.

Tom Sachs’ Waffle Bike Totes The Iron

One of the greatest perks to living in New York is the easy access to food. A few months ago, we were excited to discover a waffle truck parked right outside the Complex offices. But even that mobile wonder doesn’t match up to the impressive Waffle Bike created by artist Tom Sachs. The one-of-one bicycle is a self-contained waffle production unit, featuring a refrigerator, chicken cage (where fresh eggs are hatched), and of course a waffle iron.

Even though the bike doesn’t seem street ready, it actually is. It even has a machete and two homemade 12-gauge shotguns built in, just in case anyone tries to jack these wheels. The Waffle Bike will be on display at NYC’s Sperone Westwater gallery through June 21. Learn more about the bike in an informative video below.
