CORK Tell us a little about the new whip!
JAKE I just put together the new Kink Titan II and it’s sick. I’ve been riding a sample of this frame for a few months now and it feels amazing. The shorter (13”) rear end and the lower BB (11.6”) both help to make it super responsive and extra swaggy. I’m also stoked on the new Kink 2XOG pegs, they’re big boy 4.5” steel for reals. Definitely feeling this new Nightshade colorway Kink is doing, it reminds me of wine, and I like wine.

CORK You just put out a dank new biking vid edited by teammate Dan Coller, can you tell us what went into those biking moves?

I won’t be putting out a reaction video to my own video if that’s what you’re asking... But in reality, a lot of good times went into it. A few trips to SD, Boston, NH, Jersey, and of course home, Rochester, NY. Anytime I get to go ride bikes and work on video projects with my homies is a good time. Big thanks to my brother Dan for putting this together as well as Uncle Tocco for filming half of it. I love both those dudes and they always have my back with this shit.

What else do you have in store for 2017?

Keep rolling! Basically continue to travel and ride bikes with my friends and enjoy it to the fullest. I recently started up a new project with a homie of mine called Killing Time. It’s a collaborative effort of creating art and goods through the combination of our hobbies. Making art, taking photos, and filming videos is how I keep myself busy when I’m not riding, so why not turn it all into a project?! Pretty much I’m just trying to continue to do everything I enjoy while hopefully making some cool shit in the process, mixtape in progress! You can go check it out on IG @werekillingtime if not who cares.
