Our story

Oakland CA is the birthplace of the Original Scraper Bikes, coined by Tyrone Stevenson Jr. in 2006. This unique styled bicycle phenomenon has umpired into a global movement, due to its music video: ‘Scraper Bikes’ that went viral on YouTube with over 3 million views worldwide.

The Scraper Bike Movement offers youth a sustainable group of peers that is positive and motivating. We want to expand and enlighten young peoples perspective on life through fixing and painting bicycles. Our goal is to support youth entrepreneurship and cultural innovation.
