Jake Petruchik Interview
Jake is one of those riders who has been on our radar for quite a while, popping up from time to time in a new edit and always putting together some real good riding. Over the years, he’s rode for a few different companies and it seemed like every time we saw something new from him he progressed a ton and continued to get smoother and make his riding look more and more effortless. After years of hard work, this Rochester, New York native joined the Kink Bike Co. team which is also based out of the same city he grew up riding in. The new opportunity seems like a perfect fit and based off the welcome edit that dropped recently, we couldn’t wait any longer to get ahold of Jake to find out what his story is! We shot him a bunch of questions that you can check out below along with some dialed photos and that new edit!
Name: Jake Petruchik
