I think the brand was born in the UK. I remember speaking to Orlando in 2010 at a trade show and was under the impression he was the owner? I could be wrong about that though. Who knows what went down since then. I understand they are closing their warehouse ... more »

I actually had a set of the United bars but they are even wider than advertised and there’s no room to cut down. Sold them straight away. I’ve been running Animal Big 4’s for a while but always been a fan of smaller/narrower bars (grew up riding 6”- ... more »
