Klock Werks’ Karlee Cobb Leads Design Of A Triumph T100 to Support Tony Hawk’s 11th Annual “Stand Up For Skate Parks” Event

Published by Cyril Huze September 24th, 2014 in Builders, Customs and Editorial.

Karlee1Most known for her land speed racing, the second generation of the Klock Werks family, Karlee Cobb, 21, just launched her first design effort at the Tony Hawk Foundation’s “Stand Up for SkateParks” event held in Beverly Hills, CA. Perry Farrell, lead signer of Jane’s Addiction and founder of Lollapalooza, along with wife Etty, won the bidding for the 2014 Triumph T100 desert runner Karlee designed.

Karlee2The Kustom design is based off a 2014 Bonneville T100 donated by Triumph Motorcycles. It sports modified and custom made parts by Klock Werks, along with carefully chosen parts from Triumph, British Customs, Joker Machine, Metzeler Tires, Nash Motorcycle Company and Hagon Shocks. Brad Smith of The Factory Match flawlessly applied the Custom Paint job.

“Our team at Klock Werks did a great job of executing on timeline and budget.” Karlee explained. “It was an honor to work with The Tony Hawk Foundation as they help youth around the world enjoy the benefits of skateboarding and the safety of skate parks. It’s a great event and great cause! I was so excited that Perry Farrell bought my first custom! He loved it!”

“I told my wife Etty when we walked in, that’s my style, that’s my bike” said Perry, “I have had BSA’s and always loved the Triumph brand. This is perfect for me.”

    WOW! Triumph should try something like this…and I read it’s based on the Bonny with the proper 360 crank and NOT the “Steve McQueen” knockoff that has the wanna-be V Twin 270 crank…..

    I’m struggling to see what they’ve done here apart from an aftermarket exhaust and a silly front mudguard.
