In case you haven"t noticed, the whole restomod thing has booted off big time in Car World. But if you thought retro was a rampant industry on four wheels, it"s in a whole different league on Planet Bike. In recent years, the throwback scene has exploded like a brick-sized Berroca in bathwater, all to try and sate the thirst of people looking for an added slice of cool in their life. Custom cafe racers, brats, scramblers and trackers have all become the rage, which in our new oversharing Instagram-obsessed world, makes the hankering to try and grow a beard, buy a Belstaff jacket and get on a fashionable bike all too appealing. For most of us, the decision to get on a bike comes down to one thing. Well, two. First: that your significant loved one will let you wobble around on two wheels. Second: wedge. Even though bikes are more affordable than cars, for your own period-style custom you"re talking hella cash. Believe it or not though, you can get the look for a lot cheaper than you think.
