DC Design to enter bike customization market

DC Design is entering into the bike customisation market with the launch of a sub brand - DC2. This new arm will be dedicated to design and offer customised kits for a wide range of motorcycles in the Indian market. The company has kick started its motorcycle customization business by unveiling its first custom bike, called the DC2 CarbonShot. It is based on a Royal Enfield Bullet 350.

The DC2 Carbon Shot comes with an all-LED headlamp while the front indicators have been placed in billet casing. The front and rear fenders are made of real carbonfibre. The bike gets a single rider seat built from steel and leather, which also gets integrated LEDs that function as tail light and rear indicators. A custom fuel tank cover has been fabricated using billet, chrome and carbonfibre, which bolts on to the original fuel tank to offer a retro look. The air filter and battery cover are said to have been designed by taking inspiration from luxury watches. They are made of a mixture of billet aluminium and carbon.

The company hasn't fiddled with any major components of the bike, including the suspension, frame, engine, instrument cluster and brakes. Bookings for the DC2 CarbonShot are currently underway. The entire customization kit costs Rs. 76,000 (exclusive of the price of the stock bike).
