ReviewsAmerican Cycle", April 2007"Art of the Bobber" traces the emergence of custom motorcycles and introduces us to the machines of today that are upholding the rebellious culture of the original Bobber. The pictures are the showcase of this book. Art of the Bobber" is much like its subject matter, stripped down and raw with power and grit. Today the Bobber retains its original image, 'short, low and fast, ' and Drate and Salavetz showcase these bikes with mastery."
