Deus Sea Sider: Surfboard ready Honda C70

Custom house Deus has unveiled its latest creation, a gorgeous Honda C70 that’s capable of carrying a surfboard.

If you’re a surfer, you’ve probably been using four-wheels to transport your board to the beach – but what if there was another option? Bali based Deus have customised a Honda C70 scooter, transforming the bike into a perfect means of transport to take a board to the beach.

The base 1974 Honda C70 has been customised with a range of vintage parts (including handlebars, lights and wooden basket pulled straight from a bicycle), imported rims from Japan, and a Honda-Astra scooter engine from the mid-1990s (with an all-important electric starter).

Deus wanted the bike to be as lightweight as possible, and stripped the frame of any unnecessary parts – keeping things simple and purposeful as possible. The exhaust was handmade along with the surf racks and the leather seat.

Despite its limited power, the C70 “Sea Sider” is capable of carrying two people and one board at the same. It’ll be interesting to see how aerodynamic it is in some slightly windier conditions, though…
