Freestyle, 1st Place: Medaza Cycles
Only a mad dog or an Irishman would build a custom using one of Moto Guzzi’s “bacon slicer” singles—or two Irishmen, in this case. Called Rondine, this sleek speedster was built by Medaza Cycles’ Don Cronin and Michael O’Shea, using a 1971 Guzzi Nuovo Falcone 500 engine mounted in a one-off custom frame. Minimalist aluminum bodywork is hand-formed and the girder-type front fork is actually made from a highly modified Harley-Davidson V-Rod swingarm. We especially like the forward-facing muffler, with “zoomie” tips inspired by ’60s dragsters.
