United Auto Portait Alex Valentino Signature Frame Raw
Here is the Raw colourway in the "Auto Portrait" Alex Valentino signature frame from United.
PLEASE NOTE: This bike has a Translucent paint finish which means you can see the welds and anything else through the paint. It is generally not as durable as solid paint and can scratch easier. Additionally, the steel can develop sort of spider-web marks which of course you can see through the translucent paint, this is all part of the effect in a way, but we are just making you aware it. If this isn't for you, we'd suggest a non-translucent paint finish.
Alex Valentino's new Signature Auto Portrait Frame is finally here! The Auto Portrait features some similarities with our Incarnate V2 frame, like a solid tubeset throughout, invest cast dropouts with built in chain tensioners, and our ultra slim invest cast wishbone, but this frame also features a seatstay wishbone to further strengthen the rear triangle.
This double wishbone design sets the Auto Portrait Frame aside from anything else in our line up, and yet fits in perfectly.
Coming in 3 colours, Blue, Pale Grey, and Raw, the headtube graphics for this frame have also been painted by Alex Valentino himself, further adding to the name.
Marcel Duchamp was a French painter, sculptor, chess player and writer whose work is associated with Cubism, Dada and conceptual art.
"Readymades" as he called them, disrupted centuries of thinking about the artist's role as a skilled creator of original handmade objects. Instead, Duchamp argued, "An ordinary object could be elevated to the dignity of a work of art by the mere choice of an artist."
"By acquiring Autoportrait you've got yourself a piece of art." - Alexandre Valentino
