Company History
Under the Precision Cycle Works banner, U.S. fabricators produced small batches of customs that favored rideability over shock value. Frames were jig-built for straight tracking; triple trees, controls, and pegs were machined in-house or to spec for a crisp, tactile feel. The bikes typically used proven American V-twins paired with stout braking and wiring looms routed for serviceability. Customers could spec bar height, peg position, and gear ratios, making the final machine a fit rather than a guess. Documentation and parts interchangeability mattered: clear torque specs and cross-compatibility with common aftermarket components meant owners could keep bikes sorted for years. Historically, the PCW name represents the mature end of the custom boom—craftsmanship grounded in engineering basics. These are customs that stay composed on scarred highways, start reliably after sitting, and still draw a crowd because proportion and finish never go out of style.
