Duane has become internationally know for the wicked one-of-a-kind seats he tools from leather but he is actually a
third generation leather craftsman, starting out making wallets and belts to help support the family business. Some 10 years later, he’s still creating one-off seats for the top builders of the industry down to the garage mechanic. Duane is
currently making his way to Yokohama for the Mooneyes’ show where he will be featured not as a leather craftsman
but as a bike builder. That’s right, between Duane’s “Funkenstein” and newest creation “The Pink Taco,” he has gained international status for the bikes he builds as well as the seats he creates. It is for this reason we are more than honored to name him 2010’s Cycle Source Reader’s Craftsman of the Year!
