Russell Mitchell, founder of Exile Cycles, is a British-born custom motorcycle builder with an unconventional path to the top of the chopper world. Trained as a veterinarian in England, he came up through London’s glam-punk scene before building radical custom scooters under the Exile name. After moving to the U.S. in 1991, a customized Harley and magazine exposure led to the founding of Exile Cycles in Southern California in 1995.

Known for its raw, minimalist, industrial style, Exile Cycles helped redefine modern custom motorcycles, breaking away from chrome-heavy trends. Through iconic builds, Biker Build Off, and Build or Bust, Russell Mitchell became one of the most influential figures in custom bike culture.
