- Anyone with half a brain can look beyond Ducati's 'Scrambler' moniker to the simple, beautifully made and charismatic motorcycle beneath. A trellis frame suspending a Euro 4 compliant version of the much adored air-cooled Desmo L-twin has been a recipe for sales success, but not everyone wants to follow the herd.
The deBolex One-of-One ethos utilises their rarely rivaled in-house fabricating and metalwork capabilities to produce some of the most stand-out and high quality custom motorcycles - full stop.
The company's founder, Calum, talks us through this striking homage to classic race bikes from a golden era.

![How Ducati made the Best [looking] Motorcycle Ever](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/yDM0d8KVWNY/mqdefault.jpg)
This is probably the most beautiful bike I have ever seen...
What a synergy between the modern hardware and the classic race fairings and styling.
110% agree.
Ducati should hire this man, and put his idea into production.
Stunning bike. At first I thought the panels were plastic moulded, but aluminium, such craftsmanship to get them silky smooth. 👍
I assumed it would be fiberglass!
Every project you guys bring into this channel are totally outstanding,awesome piece of art I just love it
Spend a lot of my time in the 50:s and 60:s on bikes. This one is by far the most beautiful bike I have eve seen since the AJS 7R. Congratulations!
Possibly the best modern CR I’ve seen. That slender lower fairing is outstanding.
those guys do some sick builds, can't wait for this year's show
i want that bike!!! such a great craftmanship and love in every detail
!
Wow, that is mesmerizingly beautiful. I would trade my Panigale for it ANY day. Why doesn’t ducati hire people like you to design some new ideas for them. What a work of art. I love it
they did.. his name was Pierre Terblanche. the issue is that production costs and homologation waters designs down dramatically. i actually built a cafe bike off his sketches czcams.com/video/EYmF8Bex5DQ/video.html
@@alexioflexio8818 That's mad, I really dig it
What a great bike, and what a lovely sound. Some people think noise and sound are the same thing but louder isn't always better.
Love the name of your company! Great bikes too real nice job on them all.
Beautiful build!!
perfect blend of a race bike and a cafe racer, When I make enough Im hitting them up for my first custom build!
another superb bike from debolex...
And here is the sad part, Ducati has all the base parts already available, no reconfiguration needed to duplicate this work of art. The simplicity compared to the v4’s is perfect. Of course Ducati would probably say, there is not enough money to be made manufacturing this.
Now I wish deBolex would see this comment as well as others. Beautiful build and vision to see the possibility.
A stunning work of art!! 😎👍
Amazing effort
A truly beautiful motorcycle!
G’day and greetings from Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺 one of my favourite bikes I love the Atalian bikes I had a GSR 1000 very fast absolutely terrific in the corners. John
I wish you could feature the blue/silver Ducati that was epic!
Gorgeous!
I'm a simple man, I see a build by Debolex, I click like
Hands down one of my favorite builds of theirs, next to their Thruxton R you featured a while back
DREAM BIKE!!! PERFECT WORK
I've got one of these!
It's a 1978 Ducati 900ss. Bought it new, still have it.
This is incredible
Stunning that is.
simply great shape.compliments.
A work of art
I love this!
Sounds good
a proper, proper piece of kit
gorgeous build! If it where up to me i would shorten that silencer a little though
Beautiful machine.
Stunning
Fucken Awesome. ..and great questions and answers from the two guys. Thank you.
Very nice!
I think I've watched every Bike Shed video. Still haven't seen one I didn't like!
Man. I'm I love with it.
My dream bike materialised
Beautiful bike and really beautifully engineered, the bodywork being second to none. I would love to see this bike with the lower fairing removed mainly because I like a more naked look seeing the air-cooled engine i.e. 900ss, Paul Smart etc. This is in no way a criticism.
The 1 criticisms I do have is American speak for bike parts. Why do we want to speak American or is watching too much Orange County Choppers rubbing off on us.
Triple clamps or triple trees for YOLKS (I cringed when the presenter said it). Hardtail for Rigid (choppers have hardtails), headlamp ears, sick etc
14 thumbs down? these guys must be helluva bike builders.
Pure art.
Not a fan of the bulbous lower fairing, but everything else looks great. Workmanship top shelf as usual from ‘deBolex.
MasterPiece!!!!
I would have put golden or black rims and a more retro styled set of tyres but other than that i love that bike!
Beautiful ! enough said
Lovely bike xden
Love it...
Beautiful bike. I ride a nearly identical 803 myself (desert sled), and the only issue I see is that these air cooled bikes run HOT, and I would be worried that the tight fitting fairing would cook the bike and the rider. Hopefully the open oil cooler is all that is needed, but the fact that the exhaust and all the cooling fins are blanketed, I wouldn't be surprised if it turns into a BBQ on a hot day.
The bike looks amazing a great job. Can I have one with a Dark Grey seat.
It would make a great kit
The colour of beauty!!!
Red.... Ducati 😍👏👏👏👏
Amazing!!!
Beatiful!!!
Gorgeous!!!
Congratulations buddy 😉👍
Best wishes ☺️
That's awesome!! Wasn't there a video the bike shed had of his blue ducati??
There's a feature here thebikeshed.cc/debolex-ducati-749s/ with a vid at the bottom.
Superbe 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Okay, wow, wow, wow. That's something special
Ducati should adopt all aspects and bodywork of this, add in some suspension and do a scrambler 1100 based limited edition cafe racer model. When they did the MH900E everyone flipped out selling them out online straight away, prices are still very strong for them .this is such a well executed build.
Triumph tried it with the thruxton TFC but priced it too high..... ducati definitely has the brand history and attraction to make it work
It's wonderful. I think that exhaust pipe is going to bubble the paint on fairing though, regardless of the heat shield. Unrelated, but the interviewer has a nice voice.
We'll let you know what happens, Colin. ...Calum's pretty experienced, with paint, heat and metal, so we'll see....
Thank you. My guess is, this bike will not spend much time stood in traffic, so hopefully this issue will not occur. Not exactly a commuter, judging by the height of those bars.
Needs a trellis swingarm. Otherwise, superb.
That modern looking swingarm looks very out of place indeed. I think that's the only problem with that design.
I guess he couldn't find a replacement easily, being a Scrambler base.
Agreed
Nah just anodized golden and gold ohlins forks, golden anodize those rims and she would be perfect
Naa I like it, it's supposed to be cafe but also current... I get what your saying but it's kinda what sets it aside with new to retro... each to their own 👍
ShortFatandStumpy FAT I agree with your thoughts. It makes you do a double take and realize that under that retro skin is a perfectly sorted and modern bike. No rattles or issues, no old underpowered engine, no wobbly chassis. That’s the good part about new Ducati’s... they’re very well made.
i love it and hate it at the same time
This is fucking insane, its very beautiful.
look so much better once brought outside
What hubs have they used ? Ducati ones are hard to come by.
Best ducati scrambler.
Video seams dim in brightness
HEI DEBOLEX, u know what's next?!? Since there's a Scrambler 1100.... u gotta build now a Ducati 1079 Special!!! ;)
Same styles, same fairings... Maybe a different colour combo? Yellow! :D
It kind of reminds me of kanedas bike from akira
how they deal whit the heat generated in the bike? i have a scrambler and in a few minutes the body heat raise a loooot.... they must be install something to deal whit the heat.....
Super hot!!
Really great build by engineers. The complete opposite of the bodgers from Orange County.
true craftmens
👍🏼👏🏼
FKNG LOVE IT
Thats a Sexy looking bike!
Wow......
perfect for red carpet the red beauty 😍😍
it makes me laugh how one guy in a shed can build a motorbike 10x more beautifull than ducati have ever done, and thats with millions of pounds, Massive factories and hundreds of staff members.
An absolutley excuisite bike, probably the most beautifull bike i have ever seen, and all modern tech.
Youl look like debolox riding this nice scoot
absolutely fucking gorgeous
This bike really is 'De bollox'
now thats pretty.
I want to see his personal bike(s)
From Len............the "10"!!!! Nuf said I think.
Nice bike. Chicken strips ?
this is unbelievable. the next question is of course: HOW MUCH?
£lots... Call Calum at deBolex for a quote.
Its a Scrambler but not as we know it.
Pure bike porn heaven.
BOOM!!!
Wait. This was a Ducati Scrambler, the new one ?
That "Debolex" is "The Bollocks.."
If that swing arm had been colour matched it would add a real prototype feel to this bike
Daddy likes.
I like parts of this bike but, the modern power plant from a bland Ducati is not one of them. The tires and the swing arm as well just clash for me with the old styling elements
it already exists ducati gt 1000 sports classic
You mean the non-GT; SportClassic 1000S? ... Except they stopped making those in 2009 and you can't get one for sensible money any more. ...We know, as we have three. I'd exchange any one of them for this tho. (Dutch)
Ducati are you listening?
► 15:08 HEAR IT RUN !
彼は良い仕事してる。メーカーは再び この手の空冷エンジンで Cafe Racerタイプのmotorcycleを作るべきとも思う。
nice bike but the exhaust looks weird
It's like a curvy girl wearing a fitted bikini. I'm not sure how you fitted that on but I like it!
good grief , I thought it was glass , low and behold its alloy , pretty is too small a word , outstanding is better suited. So whats it costing , roughly.
Swing arm length is a bit too long for my taste, but amazing work.
CAN I HAVE IT? PLZ
Everything is nice, except the swingarm. Well, maybe its just me.
The host needs to stop interrupting him.
