You can read the full story behind this one HERE. The idea behind this build was that it not only had to be eye catching but it also had to serve as a working beer dispenser. Then there are the one-off builds like this nuts looking chopper built by Rising Sun Workshop and Young Henrys. These guys build in the scrambler style but all its bikes are custom-made to suit the owners wants and needs, but they offer things like wooden front and rear racks and even surfboard carriers.
Love it.Īnother awesome CT110 tweaker is Dusted Customs at Moto in Noosa. The Junk Mail is just that, built from bits it had lying around the workshop the frame has been stretched 200mm. And the Pinko Bastard is Champion’s ‘take’ on the CT110. The Parcel Bomb by Champion Abbotsford was built, it says, for trails and tar. The workshop is out the back of the beer garden at the Yarra Hotel in Melbourne and the bikes that Jim turns out are perfect for gentlemen riders or learners…me, I want one of every single bike he makes. So, what makes the postie bike a great project? Simple, it’s cheap to buy a second-hand one, the parts are cheap and if you buy an ex-postie bike then you’ll be getting one that’s been tweaked with tougher bits and pieces to handle the rigours of suburban mail delivery.Īny custom postie bike article has to lead with the daddy of the business and that is Champion Abbotsford run by Jim Clark.

My parents agreed…and even though I pestered them for a postie bike of my own I never got one. But we didn’t back then.īut even then I felt that me, mixed with motorbikes was a recipe for disaster.
The first and last motorcycle I ever rode was a postie bike…and I loved it even though I opened the throttle right up straight away and nearly came off the thing. The company claims to have created a process that allows 91 percent of materials used in the making of these batteries to be recovered. Even more amazingly in our intellectual property-happy day and age, Kyburz says it purposely didn’t patent its process, and is instead happy to share this knowledge so that others can make use of it, as well.The Honda CT110 is an Australian icon thanks to Australia Post … we’ve picked a couple of the coolest custom postie bikes in Australia. Interestingly, Kyburz is also taking steps to answer the question of what happens to batteries when they reach their end-of-life. Range is 50 to 100 kilometers (31 to 62 miles), and clearly a number of variables will affect which end of the range it’s closer to in practice. So, what are the specs like on the incoming electric postie trike fleet? According to the manufacturer, top speed is a blistering 45 kilometers per hour, or just under 28 mph. “One of the things we’ve done is a review of our equipment and processes to make sure that we have capacity to support increased parcel volumes – the introduction of the KYBURZ vehicle is one way we are doing this,” he added.
