Top 10 Wicked Designs on Motorbike Helmets

Giving up the luxury of staying dry in a car for the economical convenience of a motorbike doesn’t mean you can’t get soggy in style.


This cool custom crash helmet has the comic book legend Wolverine's snarling face airbrushed onto it.

With the rising cost of petroleum and gasoline, many people are turning to motorbikes as a fuel efficient locomotive during the current fuel crisis. Cars offer simple luxuries such as protection from the weather and adequate storage space. But if you’re going to get rained on, snowed on and hailed on, you might as well do it with a toothy grin (at least on your helmet).

A motorbike crash helmet has been transformed into a scary human skull with the help of an airbrush artist.

Freaking out the neighborhood children is a top priority when choosing your biker gear. Why stop at a simple airbrushed skull design on your helmet when you can wear a leather suit reminiscent of an anorexic model?

Iron Man Crash Helmet

Although wearing full body armor made from iron is not an option on a motorcycle, you can still look as awesome as Marvel Comics' Iron Man. The helmet and visor have been airbrushed with shiny metallic paint to feed your glossy Iron Man obsession.

Spiderman Crash Helmets

Express your love for either the naughty or nice Spiderman with a black or red Spidey helmet. He climbs walls, spins webs and now wears a hardcore leather jacket and carries an organ donor card.

Venom Crash Helmet

Or, if you find yourself rooting for the baddies in every Spiderman movie, try the Venom helmet on for size. Although you may think it would be awkward to see past Venom’s sharp teeth, the visor has been airbrushed in such a way that peering out from the abyss of Venom’s mouth has never been easier.

Sweet Tooth the Clown from the video game, Twisted Metal, has given up his combat ice cream truck for all the jollies of riding a motorbike. However, creating Sweet Tooth’s flaming hairdo is left up to the biker.

This Sweet Tooth the Clown helmet proves that some clowns are scary, but they can still be funny looking.

Anaconda Crash Helmet

These helmets offer unlimited amusement for the wearer, as small children and elderly woman flee the scene in terror. Why bother with a gas guzzling car when you can enjoy the economical and endless entertainment provided by motorbikes and the gear that goes with them?

Artistic Recycling: Amazing Furniture Made From Old Bicycles

Stylish and unique furniture made from bicycle wheel rims, handle bars, and frames.


Where do bicycles go when they die? Andy Gregg transforms these unwanted vehicles into contemporary furniture. Using the stainless steel and aluminum frames, wheel rims and handlebars from old bikes, Gregg creates chairs, tables and barstools.


This lounge chair is made from old bike parts, using inner tubes to creates springy rubber upholstery.

Gregg has been creating recycled bicycle furniture since 1990, refining his designs and adding more pieces to his inventory. Each piece has a slick, clean look; a positive image that one would not expect from old bike parts.
His creations also include recycled items from other locomotives. Windows from trains and cars become glass table tops and seat belt webbing is used for upholstery.


Windows from old cars are reused as glass table tops for coffee tables and bar tables made out of old bicycle wheels. You can just see the spokes of the bicycle wheel through the glass top of this table; an interesting talking point for anyone who's seeing the furniture for the first time.

Many of these designs can weather a life outdoors as practical and attractive garden furniture. Certainly a topic for conversation, the furniture offers both aesthetic value and functionality.



The Loveseat is a chair made for two people to sit side by side; a perfect relationship gift for bike-loving couples. To make the arms of the couch, the artist has bent bicycle wheel rims to create a more comfortable shape.

Gregg offers custom-made options, so a buyer may choose the type and color of upholstery; material variations include rubber inner tubes, leather, clear or colored acrylic, cork and vinyl. Customizable furniture allows the buyer to choose the material of the armrests and the color of the seating. Recycling takes many forms and exciting artworks made from old, unwanted items is becoming more popular. Andy Gregg’s designs are certainly a unique and functional use of old bicycles.

Located in Marquette, Michigan, on the shores of Lake Superior, Bike Furniture Design Headquarters continues to create new and interesting recycled furniture. For more info and designs, or to buy recycled furniture online, visit Bike Furniture Design.
