Some projects start with a vision, others start with a tear-down. This one began as a brand-new 2024 Triumph Bonneville T100, and quickly became something else entirely.

The crack of dawn on a Saturday saw us chuckin' three of our race bikes into the back of the van. The crew was buzzing. We’d got a call from the Tasik Adventure mob, and when they say they're throwing a party, you just show up, no questions asked.

September 6th in Munich marked more than just another night on the calendar, rather it was the official launch of MINI JCW X Deus, a partnership a year (and then some) in the making.

Between Brazil's vibrant coastlines and Bali's wave-rich reefs, the story of Andrew Serrano - a longtime friend of Deus - blends soulful boards and a passion that pulls him back to the ocean. We discussed balance, craft, and what it means to stay true to the feeling that first drew him to the waves.⁠

Custom War has become one of the most anticipated custom culture shows here in Bali. It's a proper platform for fans of custom culture to share ideas, get inspired, and plunge into their passion.

Deni was up against the best of the best in the finals. Gayung, Gilang, and Riki Fauzi. The pressure was on. But he has one big takeaway from the day before’s semi-final: it paid to be patient.

Deus Discovery Mall store is here to turn the ordinary on its head. Whether you’re out on a Sunday stroll or drifting through the mall at your own pace, step inside and leave the everyday at the door.

With deep respect for craftsmanship, culture, and the communities that shape them, the partnership between MINI John Cooper Works and Deus Ex Machina comes to life through two customised one-off cars - rolling expressions of a lifestyle where a love of speed meets creativity and considered design.

From a small garage in Western Sydney to a surf haven at Sandon Point, Eddy Hamaty's path to the waves wasn't exactly a typical tale. He swapped go-karts and motocross for morning surf sessions - though the dirt track still calls from time to time. 

With the BMW R 12 G/S soon to land in Australia, our Head of Workshop Jeremy Tagand was invited to reimagine an R 12 in anticipation of its arrival. His approach was to listen first, build second - 'There’s a wildness embedded in its frame, something raw, untamed. My aim was to amplify that attitude, not mask it.' 

Just 400 metres from the Boscombe coastline, tucked away in one of Dorset’s most charming coastal towns, we’ve created something a little different with The Lodge of Heavy Leisure.

That morning, the last Sunday of June 2025, Bali breathed under a mist of drizzle. The wet season, which should’ve long packed up and left, stuck around just long enough to soak a single Sunday. But at the courtyard of Deus Temple Canggu, rain wasn’t a delay—it was the opening act.
