DB’s first hand-built death trap was the infamous Funkenstein. This gleaming digger with the chrome girder fork, groovy casket tank and fire-breathing CB750 mill has graced the pages of magazines on three continents, and established the leathercrafter as a serious bike builder in his own right. Following up such a wild ride wouldn’t be easy, but a rivalry with Kutty Noteboom—another fan of Choppetown’s Jive District—provided the inspiration both friends needed to give their oeuvre a new direction.
