Arawak Cycles is a dude named Dave in NYC (the name is a nod to his Taíno heritage). Studied at UBI with Tony Pereira and while this isn't his first frame, it's his first production frame that isn't for himself. Tubing is a mix of True Temper S3 and Columbus Life, with Spirit chainstays.

The frame was ready this summer, but the waitlist for paint (handled by Ben Falcon @ Horse) meant I spent the summer bonding with my loaner, an '87 Trek 2500 with full DA7400.
