Cherry Cafe Racer by Deus
Deus Ex Machina has a refreshingly heretical approach to cafe racer building, this bike is one of their latest creations and you can tell at a glance that it’s a signature, antipodean cafe belter.
Klhip
Well I never thought I’d feature nail clippers on Silodrome however, design is design and these clippers (or, Klhippers) are tiny little engineering marvels. They’re made from surgical grade stainless steel and you can grab one here for $50.
The Pup by Old Empire Motorcycles
Old Empire Motorcycles is a brilliant little boutique garage based in Norfolk, England. They’re fairly new and this is their first publicly available custom motorcycle, it’s been dubbed “The Pup” in memory of the infamous WWI fighter plane, the Sopwith Pup.

This is the 1952 Norton 500cc Model 30 Manx and this particular Manx has quite the personal history. It was shipped new to veteran Grand Prix…
Bicycle Can Cage
Okay so from the outset I have 2 problems with the Bicycle Can Cage, firstly, that appears to be Pabst Blue Ribbon sitting in it, a beer which I have tasted and strongly feel is unfit for human consumption.
1973 Jeep Wagoneer
The classic Jeep Wagoneer is one of those unmistakably American cars, this example is fitted with a V8 and an automatic transmission, sadly the air-conditioning needs a little work…
Cafe Racer & The City by Fott
Cafe Racer & The City was directed and filmed by the talented Alexander Khudokon in 2011, I have a soft spot for well made videos like this although I always feel like they just need a script in order to be made into a feature film.
Skyscraper Hangar In A Metropolis by Hugh Ferriss
