Wethepeople BMX – Grant Castelluzzo Named U.S Team Manager + Bike Check

November 29, 2017

It looks like Grant Castelluzzo is going to be holding down the Team Manager duties in the United States for Wethepeople…

When Grant Castelluzzo had parted ways with Mutiny Bikes a while back, we had a feeling he might have something in the works with Wethepeople. As it turns out, our instincts were right and it looks like he will be taking on the role as the United States Team Manager for the brand! As some of you might already know, Grant has experience in the role between his different roles with Profile Racing and Madera, as well as being a TM on top of a pro team rider for Mutiny, so it’s safe to say he’s not going to have any trouble adjusting to this opportunity.

“WETHEPEOPLE is proud to welcome the multi-talented Grant Castelluzzo to the family as he joins the crew out in California and takes on the role of US Team Manager.

Most of you will be no stranger to Grant’s incredible skills both on the bike and behind the lens. Already being close friends with many of the guys on the squad, welcoming Grant to the family and have him behind the helm of our US team was a no-brainer.” – Wethepeople

“I am super excited and honored to announce that I am the US TM for WETHEPOEPLE. The team is full of amazing bike riders and more importantly amazing people, who happen to be my friends, which kind of makes this a dream job to be honest. WETHEPEOPLE has been around for over 20 years and it is humbling to work for a brand that has some serious history and legacy to it. I am hyped to get in the streets with the crew and for you all to see the stuff we will be working on!“ – Grant Castelluzzo

“Expect to see Grant riding his BATTLESHIP setup around Long Beach and Southern California with the rest of the team whilst working on a list of fresh Wethepeople projects which will be hitting your screens in the very near future…”

You can check out more photos and details on his new Battleship setup over on the Wethepeople Website now.

What do you think about the news? Did anyone else see this coming? How do you like Grant’s new setup? Let us know what you are thinking in the comments below!

TALKING POINTS

AWAKE FRAME – Ed’s second signature frame. WTP took the original frame geometry with the 13” backend and raised the standover to 9” and gave it a new super sleek hourglass head tube which is taller so you don’t have to run spacers. The frame also has new 7.5mm thick invest cast dropouts with removable chain tensioners. The dropouts are deigned to fit flush with the
pegs and hub guard. Frame will be available November 2017 and is backed up by a LIFETIME GUARANTEE.

BATTLESHIP FORK – New super strong street fork with 6mm thick invest cast dropouts and a shorter 24mm offset to help with nose manuals. Designed to fit plastic pegs and hub guards easily. This is a crazy strong fork and will be also backed by a LIFETIME GUARANTEE. Available November 2017.

REMOTE GRIP – New flangless grip from WeThePeople using a special new super soft rubber. Grip is longer than most and uses our new Nylon bar ends.

PATHFINDER SPROCKET – Felix Prangenberg’s signature sprocket is much thicker than your average sprocket (8mm) so holds up to heavy street riding abuse. It has 9 points of rotation, so it lasts a long time. Available now.

LOGIC WHEELS – Ed is riding WTP’s new complete wheels using the new Logic RIM which is the first rim on WTP and uses a wider and taller design to make them rigid and resistant to street riding and sideways impacts. The Logic wheels include WTP’s Supreme front hub and Helix freecoaster and include two nylon hub guards—meaning you can bolt them on and get straight to work without purchasing anything else. Available November 2017.” – Ride BMX
