Product: United Dinero Fork

September 30, 2011

“We wanted to make sure every last detail was fine tuned and scrutinized before finally releasing these forks. By utilizing investment casting technology we were able to the conventional dropout position and move these into the centre of the legs. By using a gradual radius where the dropout meets the leg, it thickens at the base, creating a vastly stronger dropout than on a regular welded one. By curving the very bottom of the leg we have prevented any catching when getting all locked in with front peg grinds.

The neat embossed logo is there to add a nice finishing touch. To increase tyre clearance these forks have a tighter radius on the legs than traditionally found, and it is all connected by a completely overhauled steerer tube. What you end up with is a clean and simple looking street tough fork, with no welds for pegs to sit on and crack, all weighing in at just 2.02 lbs / 920 gm. Made from full post weld heat treated seamless 4130 cromo, and put through their paces by our team.

Available in colours to match all of our signature frames if you wanna rock them combos, and available now.

Product: United – Updated Beacon Frame and Bars

September 29, 2011

“All our new product is starting to land over the next couple of weeks, so you’ll see some updates here running through info on the new items.

First up the Beacon frame & bars have gone through a couple little changes. The new flat dark red colour has been added, with new colour graphics to freshen up the black & blue options.

The BB height on the frame has now been raised up to 11.8″, which provides more clearance when dropping those switch crooks, and the bars are now at 27″ wide with the same 8.6″ rise.

For more photos and info (until we launch the new site) go right here.

Or check out the promo we dropped when the frame launched last year.” – United

Unit BMX flow team rider Nate Berkheimer recently made the move from Las Vegas to Seattle, so we took a trip up to hang out and film Nate at some of his new local spots. A big thanks must go out to all the locals who let us ride, film and hang out at the trails that they put so much effort into over the years.
