1993 Pearson Extreme

1993 Pearson Extreme

Description

Graeme Pearson is a visionary. Many of his bikes are well ahead of their time, not least of all this one. Graeme had seen motorcycles with single sided swing arms and decided a bike with a single sided fork and cleaned up chainring/rear end area could be very aero. This beam bike, with single sided swing arm was the prototype (2 were made), with the second being raced. As with many things Graeme did, he realised he had some better ideas and plans, and the second of these bikes had the front fork ‘support’ cut off, and was turned into a more normal (in his eyes) beam bike. It became the design that Graeme still builds today, albeit in a heavily modified form. The work on this particular bike started in the very early ‘90’s, with completion, and racing coming in 1993. Photos do not do this bike justice, it is really something to be seen ‘in the flesh’, so as to understand the engineering that went in to it.
Everything on the bike (bar the crank, and rear disc wheel) was built by hand, by Graeme.
