European Biker Build Off
Two heavyweights of the scene compete in the premier class: American Dream Cycles from Germany meets Killer Custom from Lithuania. For three days, both teams will build a unique bike live in front of the audience – under time pressure, with absolute dedication, and pure passion.
American Dream Cycles (Germany)
Based in Werne, they stand for precise craftsmanship, uncompromising quality, and a clear signature: custom bikes that combine aesthetics and performance. Every detail is planned, every part bears their unmistakable signature – perfection on two wheels.
Killer Custom (Lithuania)
A team of die-hard enthusiasts with an international reputation. Their specialty: radical, expressive conversions that give Harley-Davidson bikes, in particular, a distinctive character. Their style is loud, bold, rebellious – a statement on any road.
The Showdown
Three days. Two teams. One goal: the title of Biker Build-Off Champion 2025. On Sunday, November 30th, the audience alone will decide which bike will make history. Be there when sparks fly, engines roar, and visions of steel become reality.

Don’t miss it! 🔥
Growing up in the 1980s in the middle of nowhere in the Weserbergland, Jimmy was quickly and easily influenced by legends like Richie Havens, John Lee Hooker, Dion, Chuck Berry, Elvis and Johnny Cash.
His artistic career really gained momentum in the early 1990s when he moved to Hamburg. As a member of various formations, but especially as a solo musician, he quickly became known far beyond the city’s borders. In 2007, his solo debut Rhythm Of Hells – Songs Of Angels History was released, in which Cornett set the shared history of the Hells Angels to music with music legends such as Janis Joplin, Rolling Stones, Jerry Garcia, Johnny Cash and Hank Williams.
The frontman of the band Jimmy Cornett and the Deadmen can be seen and especially heard live on stage several times – definitely don’t miss it!
Three wild days are coming up at the Dirty Habits Saloon, and they’ll be anything but quiet.
The moment those doors swing open, it’s clear: this place is ready to party like there’s no tomorrow.
Eddy D. White, Elvis and The Backyard Sons will shake the whole saloon to its core.
Cowboys and Cowgirls will be dancing on the bar, hats will be flying through the air, and the vibe will be so electric that celebratory shots into the sky are practically guaranteed.
Three days full of energy, Western vibes and nothing but good times!
You can look forward to live airbrush art again this year: Pierre Schult from P.S. Industry demonstrates its artistic skills on bare skin.
Many of Pierre’s exceptional and excellent works show how professional and creative he works. As a long-standing exhibitor at the CUSTOMBIKE-SHOW, we are delighted that Pierre will be swinging the brush this year. The wonderful Playboy Playmate Christina Braun will provide her body as a canvas. Don’t miss it!
Some of the top bikes of the International Custom Bike Championship Germany will not only be in the bike show, but also at the Garage21 photo booth in Hall 20. The editors of the magazines CUSTOMBIKE and DREAM.MACHINES give all visitors an exclusive insight into the production of a bike portrait. Anyone who has always wanted to know how a photo series for magazines is created should not miss this opportunity and take a look.
The small but nice Christmas market in the outdoor area of the CUSTOMBIKE SHOW is once again spreading the spirit of Advent this year. There is plenty of delicious food here and a cup of mulled wine should not be missing in any hand.
