2020 United Caveman V2
Ultra rare modern geometry bash guard frame, brainchild of Rooftop and United.
As I got back in to BMX a couple years ago, it was a short struggle to play catch up with all the mid-school/new-school stuff. Started with an ATF, and over two years my collection has increased to 6 or so bikes. But all are fairly common or at least well known. Was looking for something unique but also rideable, and came across the United Caveman quite accidentally. Was always appreciative of Rooftop's eye for riding, and really thought this was a nice homage to old school with some new school rideable geometry. Enjoyed a small economic windfall, so hunted one down and built it up. Rumor is there were only 25 made, not sure if it was 25 total, or 25 of each color - black and yellow.
