Man Builds Chopper with Gator Carcass

By: Cycle Canada Published on 31 December 2009

Normally we wouldn’t cover something like this, but it’s just too whacky to pass up.

Combining his love of leather work and bike building, Floridian Benny Ohrman spent a year creating his Alligator bike. Ohrman soaked a 3 metre long alligator hide in his swimming pool for three weeks (Wonder how his family felt about that.) before using it to adorn his custom chopper. 

“I haven’t seen anything like it… It was the most fun thing I have ever made in my life, says Ohrman.”
