About Flyrite Choppers

Country of Origin: United States
Founder: Jason & Kim Norcross
Best Known For: DIY-friendly chopper frames and kits; clean Texas chopper style

Company History

Flyrite Choppers earned a loyal following by democratizing the classic chopper silhouette with well-engineered frames, rollers, and parts kits. Rather than sell only finished customs, the Texas outfit empowered garage builders to create safe, straight, and good-riding bikes with timeless lines—proper backbones, sensible rake, and stance that sits right without odd compromises. Flyrite’s catalog emphasized interchangeability and documentation, helping first-timers avoid geometry traps and oddball fitments that plague budget builds. The company’s house style—lean, purposeful, and unpretentious—sidestepped fad excess and kept projects within reach of normal wallets and tool sets. As regulations around titling and inspections tightened, Flyrite adapted guidance and components to keep customers on the right side of the law. Historically, Flyrite’s significance is cultural: it kept the flame of homebuilding alive during television-driven custom booms and busts, reminding riders that the most satisfying bike might be the one you torque together yourself. In an era of plug-and-play consumerism, Flyrite’s approach—clear plans, solid metal, honest support—proves that craftsmanship can be taught and shared, one mock-up and weekend at a time.
