The is one of the coolest paint jobs on a bike you will ever see! – please Look at all 113 pictures of this gorgeous original vintage Land Shark.
Reynolds 653 tubing with smooth as butter Fillet Brazing undeniably clean but covered with an incredible paint job. The story of Land Shark bicycles is inseparable from that of its founder, John Slawta. Slawta’s early ambition was to become a professional artist. He received a scholarship from the Pasadena School of Art and Design but got sidetracked by his hobby—building bicycle frames in his parents’ backyard tool shed. His frames attracted a cult following among cyclists who admired his precisely brazed frame joints and exotic paint jobs. He named his bike frames after the protagonist in an old “Saturday Night Live” skit that played off the “Jaws” movies.
As Land Shark grew, John moved his shop in 1991 from Los Angeles, CA to Medford, OR, and continues building every Land Shark frame himself. Many are surprised to find that Land Shark is something like an army of one. “They ask me if I’ll tell the painter how to paint it,” chuckles John, “and I tell them that I’m the painter, too.” Riders appreciate being able to talk directly to the man who’s building their dream machine
