You don't need to be solely dedicated to a life of 3D printing to know that it's come a long way. Thanks to the introduction of super-strong, carbon-reinforced polymers, we've heard about motorcycle OEMs like BMW utilizing 3D printing in their racing garages for years now.
But what about smaller-scale projects? After all, not everyone has the kind of deep pockets that BMW, as an organization, has. The good news is, in 2025, even independent companies like this Canadian firm called Pantheon are doing some really cool stuff. They're not a motorcycle maker or even a custom shop; they're a 3D printing specialist. Somehow, that makes what they've done even more special, for two reasons.
One, even if you're not a hardcore motorcycle fanatic, you know that minibikes are cool. And two, if you're trying to find ways to demonstrate just how strong your new additive 3D printing processes and materials are, it's difficult to think of a better and/or more fun and attention-getting way to do that than by designing and printing an entire motorcycle.
