Airborne Titanium BMX



It has been quite some time since Airborne released this frame. It made quite a stir in the BMX community because they may have been the first to release a titanium BMX frame in the market. It was called the Airborne Misbehavin. Made up with some choice parts from DK and Cane Creek, this bike wowed the audiences. RedLine had come up with a titanium frame but it was only a prototype. Taj Mihelich and Joe Rich of TerribleOne fame even created a titanium Barcode frame once and it was displayed at Interbike. I wonder...will titanium be the frame of choice for the racers in the Olympics? Sad to say, Airborne is no more but has renamed itself as Van Nicholas. I do not think that they are interested in remaking this frame. I would snap it up if I came across it though.
