Bike as a Canvas

Category: Accessories

This project treats the motorcycle as a canvas for personal identity. Rather than buying generic accessories, I designed and handcrafted a complete leather suite specifically for my Triumph Scrambler 400X, six pieces that are both functional and expressive. The collection includes a tank strap, handlebar grips, a headlight X-strap, a crossbar pad, a wallet, and a barrel bag. Each piece was built to solve a real problem on the bike while giving it a raw, handcrafted character that reflects my personal style. Every item was made entirely by hand, paper patterns, saddle stitching, wet moulding, riveting, and laser engraving. No synthetic materials, no shortcuts. The leather is designed to age and improve with use, building a patina unique to the rider. The project is a direct response to fast fashion, accessories built to last a lifetime, not a season. The work found a real audience: the documentation reel reached 75,000+ views, proving genuine demand for personalised, durable leather goods in the motorcycle space.
