The bicycle may have been invented with its primary purpose as a mode of transport, but who needs practicality when you have this much badass style? Manny Silva is recognised as the inventor of the lowrider bicycle, with its roots firmly planted in Latino auto lowrider culture.

He stakes claim to having introduced the ostentatious elements of dazzling chrome, intricately twisted chain-work and scraping the ground on two wheels to Los Angeles back in the 80s; now, Manny’s Bike Shop and his incredible creations have become icons not only on the mean streets of Compton, but worldwide.
