Check out the Caveman V2 frame from United!

It has been a bit of a dryspell as far as new and interesting products go lately. We haven’t seen anything too exciting as of late (at least that we have been tipped off to) and it’s good to see something pop up for a change! United have announced that Mike Escamilla‘s signature Caveman frame has been brought back by popular demand for a limited Caveman V2 run! Much like the first version, this frame definitely stands out from the norms of 2020 and has a throwback look to a classic Wilkerson Airlines frame from way back, and it looks awesome. Check out the specs, details and more photos below! We will point out that this frame will be available for PRE-ORDER TOMORROW, SEPTEMBER 23rd with delivery coming in November, and a price tag of $581.32. Steep, but the collectors out there will love it. You can pre-order the frame here — United Website.

Brian Kachinsky’s Puerto Rican Adventure 2017

February 28, 2017

The other week Brian Kachinsky had a little bachelor party down in Puerto Rico with Dave Friemuth, Chad DeGroot, Brian Hunt, Mike Escamilla, Andrew Brady, Kevin Porter and Aaron Bostrom, where the crew spent a week riding spots and exploring the island. This video that Dave put together shows what these guys got into on and off their bikes. As you can imagine with a crew like this, there was plenty of dialed riding and good times to be had. We’re pretty sure there has to be plenty of footage that didn’t make it into the edit that was probably hilarious, but… yeah… It’s safe to say these guys had a super good time during their visit. Anyone else reaaaaaally want to go to Puerto Rico right about now?
