SWEDISH SUNDAY: HAPPY BIRTHDAY HOGTECH

Think of Swedish choppers and one name will probably come to mind: Hogtech. This year the company started by Peder Johansson and Andreas Jarledal celebrates 30 years of building world-class chops that are not only show winners but rideable – in 1993, Peder and his wife-to-be set off to ride around the world on a rigid Harley chop, a trip which took 14 months and covered 30,000 miles.

One of the nicest men in custom building, Peder is still passionate about Swedish-style chops, and Hogtech now produces the only true Swede chopper which is road-legal throughout Europe. After extensive development and testing, Hogtech’s Absolut Choppers (which you see in the last picture) gained TÜV approval in Germany to certify that they meet the highest standard of welding and strength. Peder, we look forward to the next 30 years!

  1. He really is the long bike king cool pics I am still really fond of the Swedish style even if it's not that fashionable over here and bikes with fixed seats rock rather than sprung saddles which seem de rigeur nowdays. Strangely my local pub has a Swedish style Shovel on the wall at the back of the stage waste of a good bike if you ask me
