Russell Mitchell - Exile Cycles

It is by no accident that Russell is our Choppergods' first featured builder.  Russell's builds are hardcore, super minimal, and tough as hell.  He hails from Gloucestershire in the UK and has a worldwide audience.  Since he debuted in the Great Biker Build Off shows back in the early 2000's; Russell's style has had a quiet but undeniably strong impact on the whole damn scene.  You can thank him for the meaty, thick sidewall tires on front and rear of your Sportster 48, as well as the Indian Scout Bobber's stocky proportioning and similarly wide tires.
