[Kyle] Kyle Bradshaw from CrusierCustomizing and Scott from Kim’s Cycle Creations and
here we’re going to talk about your pant holder-downers.
[Scott] Right now we carry eighteen different models of men’s and women’s. One of the
unique things about these is the clips have this plastic insert inside that really grips
to fabric and holds on tight. As long as you keep it right on the cuff right here, and
they’re full adjustable, and it looks like velcro, but it’s not. It stretches like
elastic.
[Kyle] This particular style that you guys make, it’s a really really unique concept.
Basically the soft part of the hook and loop, integrated into elastic. The main drawback
of a lot of your competitors is they use a solo piece of velcro. So you put velcro on
top of velcro and there’s absolutely no give. What Kim’s Cycle Creations has done,
they put velcro at the end which allows you to be able to adjust to any size you want
while still maintaining the flex. So the velcro is just on the very tip here, you stick that
to the hook and loop exactly where you want it, and check this out: even though it’s
velcro’d, you still have full flex in this particular unit.
[Scott] Correct.
[Kyle] So the pant holder-downer is specifically to keep your pants down while you’re riding
down the road. You can keep your feet on the foot pegs, on your highway pegs, and then
the wind isn’t going to pull them up and expose your socks, your legs, expose you to
the elements.
[Scott] Another nice feature is, like this one, the Diablo, this is a woman’s model,
I personally like it for men and women, but that’s silver plated, it’s all antique
silver-plated.
[Kyle] It’s beautiful.
[Scott] This is black nickel-plated. This is the Broken Heart Wing. And Kim puts a Swarvoski
crystal on each one.
[Kyle] Wow.
[Scott] This is solid brass and copper. This is the shotgun shell.
[Kyle] I know, this is one of Christian’s favorites.
[laughter]
[Scott] Solid brass and copper, the 12-gauge shotgun shell, this one we make exclusively
for CruiserCustomizing. The only place you can buy this is from CruiserCustomizing. It’s
a V-twin engine with a gold star. The air filter has a flame design around the outside.
It’s silver plated and a real gold-plated star. They’re all the same price.
[Kyle] So let’s demonstrate really quick with this demo we’ve got here on exactly
how to hook these puppies up.
[Scott] So what you want to do, it’s real simple actually, you’re going to hook it
to both sides, they come up here, go right to the front or to the back of the inseam,
it doesn’t matter either way, which is more comfortable for you. Just clip it down and
there it is to stay.
[Kyle] Inside we demonstrated exactly how these work in a static environment. Now we’re
going to hit the road and Scott’s going to show us exactly how these puppies work
while hitting the highway.
[demonstration]
[Kyle] Right now you’re riding around with the pantlegs flapping around a bit. We’re
going to throw some of these Kim’s Cycle Creations. Which one do we have here, Scott?
[Scott] This is the Skull-Cross. It’s one of the most popular ones.
[puts it on]
[Scott] It’s that simple.
[demonstration of holder-downer in action]
[Kyle] So how does it feel, Scott?
[Scott] God, it feels great, I mean, we’ve been wearing these for years. Kim makes all
different kinds of designs and she keeps refining it and now I can’t hardly ride without them.
It just drives me crazy to have my pants flapping around like that.
