Lowbrow Customs Video Product Review Contest - Win this helmet!

Here is the skinny. You film and upload a video product review about something that you bought from Lowbrow (a t-shirt, Biltwell helmet, DVD, whatever!) and upload it to YouTube. We will use some of the video reviews on our website, giving you widespread fame amongst a very small percentage of motorcyclists, who are almost all guys. Congratulations. We will pick the most entertaining and creative product review and the winner will get a custom painted Biltwell, Inc. novelty helmet by Shawn at Imperial House 71! This is over a $200 value and a one-off piece of art, so put some effort into it, slacker! You have until end-of-day October 31st, 2010 to get your video online, and we will pick the winner by Friday, November 5th, 2010. We will be sure to hook up other noteworthy entries with prizes as well. A few brief guidelines:

1.) Keep the length of the video review under one minute. Even 30 seconds is fine! Brief but chock-full of meaty info
2.) Be as creative as you want! Remember, this is a contest, the most creative and entertaining product review wins!
3.) These are reviews, be honest, if there is something you don't like about the product, tell us! A good way to do it is to mention Pros and Cons so it doesn't just look like you are trying to score some free stuff.
4.) Upload the video to YouTube and include 'lowbrow customs review' in the tags so we can find it, also add any other pertinent tags about the product you are reviewing. Fill out the title and description fields as to what you are reviewing and put www.lowbrowcustoms.com in the video description when you upload it.

You can email the YouTube link of your uploaded video to tyler@lowbrowcustoms.com to make sure I have your entry. Thanks!

W&W's Cannonball Knuck

This cool S&S Knuck build by W&W in Germany caught my eye. If you aren't familiar with them check out the W&W website, they are a really cool company with some real soul. Wolfgang from W&W gave a little info on the bike:

"After several tries to use the Indian Forks for Harleys we found that there are to many modifications involved to make it not only look good but also RIDE good. The general geometry was just different. So we decided to construct our own fork for Harley frames witch is build in Italy by a company building replica frames for classic bikes.

The first prototypes of the fork where tested under severe conditions. From Lappland to the Northwest Territories of Kanada (Ice Road Inuvik to Tuc) to Key West in Florida on on of our "WreckingCrew" Bikes (kinda special Ops of W&W :-)

Next step was to build a chop with the fork also using as much new cool products as possible. Beside our fork we used 7 Metal West fender and oil tank (good stuff) as you sell them too in the US. Frame is OEM because it has to be in Europe to get a legal vintage registration. Engine is S&S Knuck but this of course must be stock also to be legal and will be changed asap. Of course.

Rest is mostly made by smaller or medium size Fabricators in Europe, USA or Japan witch is our specialty since we are not so much into Main Stream. Baker N1 4-speed, K-Tech Handcontrols, Fork Aircleaner and exhaust guard, our own chain guard, race gas tanks, oil cooler/filter, mid controls (still under development). Some stuff like clutch, primary and battery box have still to be changed.

Bike it is for testing the stuff we sell not for posing. That's why we do not have any studio pics or such.

If we make it, we might try the bike on EDR 2011 with different changes to it. A Biker´s work is never done.

Wolfgang"
