Don Weimer Jr.'s custom bike Revelation is a homage to his late father who was a hill climb racer in the 70's. Revelation's design is an inspiration from vintage hill climb bike that belonged to Weimer's father. Revelation is made around an original 1973 Triumph and customised to give it a sleek retro modern look.
The Revelation is equipped with one-off aluminum gas-tank, Brembo brakes and gas tank vents. It took almost seven months to customize and assemble the whole bike.
