Thread: need opinions on exotic car themed bikes

kids around here know i do theme bikes ever since the Blunt Bike i get the occasional group stopping by asking again for exotic car themed bikes. A few of them now have the money and i need it so decided to push foward with the idea.i figure since i need a bike i decided to make one for myself first hence the F220. what you guys think?




keep in mind im broke and i cant afford a Ferrari CX50 much less a real one.

what frame is that? I used to ride amateur bmx, and a family member owned a bike shop...

I know puma makes some decent stuff

its a 100$ mongoose, didnt know puma made bikes. i am gonna pick up a pair of the ferrari shoes just for bike riding

Royalties would be a problem.... Ferrari especially isn't big on letting people use it's logo with out their fair cut... One major reason ferrari is the brand it is today is do to it's creative royalties and exclusive product line deals..;

Legal advice aside pretty darn cool bike, i am not big on bmx myself but kno a fair amount of friends who are / were.

yeah, i know that one my GF and i had a big talk about it and she said they cant chase you for painting stuff the way people want and shes
technically right. if that ends up being the case ill limit the run to 2 bikes a year. kids want bikes with big company names they love the cars and would like a small piece of it im just helping them with their goal.

I would have to disagree. I would think they have every right to chase you if you are using their trade marked name/logo without their permission regardless of who asked you to do it. If you paint it, got paid for it, then it is on your head. Granted a small limited amount of bikes probably wont even blip on their radar, but if you turn it into a serious business then they will catch up with you.
