"For years, the guys at Orange County Choppers have shown just how special garages can be when enough time and energy is spent on the things you love," said Lou Ann Schafer, senior marketing manager, Gladiator® GarageWorks. "Gladiator brand wanted to help support their magic in the garage by supplying our organizational products as the team created a unique Gladiator brand chopper."

The episode will show viewers how Gladiator® GarageWorks and Orange County Choppers worked together to design and build a bike that showcases the toughness, versatility and sleek design elements of Gladiator® GarageWorks products.

"The team at Gladiator® GarageWorks made clear their brand's commitment to helping consumers customize their garages without compromising craftsmanship, which mirrors our approach to building bikes.
