Williamson Goods Offers $35,000 “Wheelman” Bespoke Bicycle

Despite Detroit’s long-standing reputation as the nation’s “murder capital”, it still has the capacity to turn-out bespoke bikes on its home soil. Moreover, you can even have one adorned in copper and wrapped in snake skin. 

Indeed, the Detroit-based Williamson Goods is offering this vintage-esque cruiser bike called the Wheelman that’s bedecked in all-manner of copper and chrome plating, to include python skin wrapping and a crocodile skin saddle.

According to Williamson Goods, only 10 examples of each color way (black/copper, navy/copper, tan/copper and navy/chrome ) will be made, which will be available in both standard sizes, as well as requests for custom sizing.  

Want one?

You better have some serious sawbucks set aside, as each bike carries a whopping price tag of $35,000.

Also, unless you posses a bulletproof vest and plan on pack’in some heat, we suggest that you don’t carry cash when you go to purchase one.
