The custom motorcycle scene is rife with new and innovative ideas. From genre-bending projects to fastidious restorations, builders typically do the most with the least. Sometimes, that adversity births out-of-the-box designs. In other instances, those monetary constraints limit the artist’s expression. Both seem to be true when it comes to Valen Zhou’s Sprinter concept.
The China-born, Milan-based photographer is a self-proclaimed moto enthusiast. Given his artistic background, Zhou set out to build a board tracker like none before it. He starts by cheery-picking second-hand bicycle, automobile, and motorcycle parts, all of which lend to the Sprinter’s hand-made, Mad Max aesthetic.
