Denver’s Choppers in Las Vegas is where you’ll find a man called Mondo building old-school stretch choppers. In fact, Mondo claims that the stretch look originated at Denver’s back when it was located in San Bernardino, CA under the ownership of the late Denver Mullins. Today Mondo & his fabricator Toby keep the faith with bikes so cool one is featured on the cover of the Hell’s Angel’s current calendar! This shop is definitely part of chopper history.
