Shortly after the new Powerplant Choppers and Roland Sands Design shop grand opening party, I made my way into LA to take a peek at the new digs.
As to be expected in Los Angeles, the retail space was relatively small- however well laid out and with what I suspect to be a sneakily large back shop area. They did an excellent job at artfully filling the space with new and old motorcycle trinkets, art, and oddities.




Things for your home, even… including gasoline and tobacco scented soy candles.


Bikes designed by Powerplant Choppers-



And some bikes and gear from Roland Sands Design, too-


Around back there’s some awesome street art by their garage entrance.

Definitely a cool shop- you can get yourself some Roland Sands riding gear, Suavecito Pomade, fancy camping blankets, clothing and more.
If you’re in the LA area, stop by the shop: 7416 Melrose Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90046
Visit the website: powerplantchoppers.com.
