The CUSTOMBIKE Show 2024 is in the Starting blocks
The halls have already been cleaned, the trophies polished and the beer chilled! Over 250 custom bikes as part of the European Championships, a good 1000 motorcycles in total, plus the fantastic Fuel Girls, an airbrush area, the large »60 Years of Simson Schwalbe« special exhibition, around 200 exhibitors with bikes, parts, clothing and accessories, a breathtaking steep face show and a great show program with numerous highlights on the main stage - the CUSTOMBIKE-SHOW in Bad Salzuflen is the Mecca for customizers and friends of spectacular machines from all over Europe and the largest trade fair for converted motorcycles in the world.
This year's European Biker Build-off is all about Harley-Davidson against Indian, Germany against Poland. The teams from USM Motorcycles from Langenhagen and Vhard Motorworks from Wagrowiec/Poland will be competing against each other on the large wrenching stage and will be putting extraordinary machines on their wheels live in front of visitors during the three days of the trade fair.
The European Moped Build-off, which is being held for the first time this year, is likely to be a size smaller, but no less crazy. In this screwdriver competition, V.E.B.-Design from Saxony will be competing with a Simson Schwalbe against the Töffli Heizer Ostfriesland with a Puch Maxi. But there will also be plenty of action on the show stage in Bad Salzuflen. Kawasaki, Thunderbike and Custom Chrome Europe will be presenting their latest conversions.
The winners of this year's CUSTOMBIKE competition receive their well-deserved prizes. With the »Starbridge Bobber« and »Fukker 2.0« projects, we present two completely different conversion concepts, both bikes were built for the benefit of charity projects. We will also be welcoming 91-year-old Schwalbe designer Erhard Werner as a guest of honor, who will talk about his life and work. The program will be framed by performances by the Fuel Girls and live music by Jimmy Cornett.
The bike show will remain the centerpiece of the event in 2024. Held as the »European Custombike Championship«, it attracts a great deal of attention across the continent, with winning bikes coming from over 20 countries since the show was launched. For the first time, the winners of all categories will receive prize money. With 5,000 euros for the »Best of Show« and 500 euros each for the winners of the other 14 categories, the European Custombike Championship in Bad Salzuflen is the most lucrative custom contest on the continent.
Both professional and amateur mechanics can take part, any style and any motorcycle base is permitted. If you want to take part last minute: applications for the bike show are still possible until November 21, 2024: european-custombike-championship.de. And because Christmas is just around the corner, there will be fun, games and live music in King Kerosin's X-Mas Lounge, where his Christmas elves and Grip presenter Det Müller will also be waiting for you.
There are once again great prizes to be won in the visitor competition, such as a trip to Mallorca Bike Week including flight and motorcycle transportation, a biker weekend at the Hotel Sauerbrey in the Harz Mountains and at the Sauerländer Hof in Willingen. There are also vouchers from John Doe and Motorcycle Storehouse, subscriptions to CUSTOMBIKE and DREAM-MACHINES and limited edition hoodies from this year's CUSTOMBIKE show.
As you can see, everything is in place for a great custom weekend. We look forward to seeing you! Tickets at: custombike-show.de/tickets Parking is available free of charge!
SEE YOU from November 29 to December 1, 2024, in Bad Salzuflen
