After 12 hours of racing and completely jarring every joint in your body from the rough terrain, you come to realize just how long a single night can seem and what you are able to achieve when you're battling it with fellow competitors. Well that's what I found between the hours of 6pm to 6am during the annual Alcoa 12 hour race last weekend, held in Jarrahdale Western Australia .

If you were to say Koo-at to someone they may think you were on some kind of mind altering drug, however, when pronounced correctly you may get a different response. Küat is pronounced koo-at and it comes from combining the names of the two founders of the company, Luke Kuschmeader and Brian Atkinson. Kuat produces 2 bike racks, the Beta and the Alpha. Both have different features, but today we are going to focus on the Beta rack.

Republik MTB's fresh threads.

Published Dec 2, 2008 at 13:30
Nowadays the clothing business is a rough place to be. Basically, you can make or break it. Look back at this past year and think about how many clothing companies have fallen off the radar, or gone bankrupt. Big companies have a firm grip on the clothing, and clothing design industry, and appear to have the ability to guess the next coming trend. It used to be baggy, way to big clothes, and it's now being transformed into a more tight fitting, so to try and guess the movement is as complicated as it gets. Republik MTB has a small lineup of refined clothing, each of which have a unique design or feature, making them stand out from the others.

It's nice when you see a small company can make a line up of clothing that appeals to today's youth, but is also functional.

Steve Smith On Evil Bikes

Published Nov 25, 2008 at 16:42
Source: Evil Bikes and words by Thomas Vanderham

On behalf of Evil Bikes I am stoked to announce the signing of World Cup downhill racer Steve Smith. I first started hearing Steve’s name about 4 or 5 years ago when I was still racing BC and Canada Cups. It was always murmured along with phrases like “the next big Canadian racer” and “has the potential to do well at a world cup level”. This year Steve took big steps to reaching that potential with a break out season, which saw him claim the US Open title, post a 10th place finish at the Andorra world cup, and debut in the film Seasons. As a fellow rider I am excited to have Stevie as a teammate, we have always had a great time hanging together and I like the confident approach he brings to his riding. The generally soft spoken 18 year old usually lets his riding do the talking but I forced him to sit down and answer some questions so that all of you could get to know him better.
