Max Hazan of Hazan Motorworks took the top prize at the BikeFest Artistry in Iron show in Las Vegas
The Artistry in Iron custom bike show and competition once again stretched the boundaries of creativity and vision in motorcycle craftsmanship. The invitation-only event was the nucleus of the 17th annual Las Vegas BikeFest, a motorcycle rally which takes over the vibrant Freemont Street area of the city for a few days each fall.
The biggest names in metal bending, performance tuning, tig welding, and paint spraying brought their customs to the neon capital of the world to square off against other international talents. Notable names like Steve Iacona, Yuichi Yoshizawa, Gilby Clarke, and Jordan Dickinson, as well as a host of young talents, brought their rolling works of art to Sin City.
The Artistry in Iron show is a magnet for the industry's best builders
In the end, Max Hazan, of Hazan Motorworks walked away with the championship bracelet created by artist Steve Soffa. However, the real winners were the BikeFest attendees who got the chance to peruse the diverse moto creations collected in downtown Las Vegas.
The customs ran the gamut in terms of build styles and engines. Choppers, trackers, sport bike, and retro builds were represented. They were crafted around engines wearing the badges of Harley, Triumph, Ducati, Indian, and several other brands.
