BMC Choppers - All Models

Company History

BMC Choppers—Big Mike’s Choppers—earned a following by providing cleanly built, sensibly engineered frames and rollers that let riders realize custom visions without geometry traps. The company’s complete bikes echoed classic American silhouettes with modern touches: reliable electrics, brakes that actually stop, and ergonomics that make a two-hour cruise pleasant. BMC’s catalogs emphasized compatibility and clear instructions, which gave first-time builders confidence and kept projects on budget. During the 2000s custom wave, BMC positioned itself between boutique exotica and swap-meet improvisation, offering value without sacrificing rideability. As the segment contracted, the brand’s legacy persisted in finished bikes that remain serviceable with off-the-shelf consumables and in builders who cut their teeth on BMC frames. Historically, BMC embodies the DIY spirit made safer and more repeatable: the chopper as an attainable craft rather than a gamble, a motorcycle that rides straight because someone obsessed over neck height, rake, and trail before the crate left the shop.
