Exciting news is that Supercross are going big for 2010 and producing 4x frames for 26 in wheels. Supercross has dipped its toe into big bikes before with its big bmxs and did for a short time produce the MX26 mtb frame.

Supercross is commiting to a 4X team with an attitude much likes DBS. Bikes is Bikes.

Bill hates it when we refer to it as Mountain Bikes, he likes to call it big BMX, and if you have seen a 4x race, it really is a BMX race on bikes with gears and suspension. Jake Kinney will be a part of the 4 person Big BMX team that Supercross will be running next year with the new 4x frames we are doing. And anyone who knows Jake will a test that he will fit in with the Supercross camp pretty good, he is a former BMXer that still rides at Kearny Moto Park and the new OTC BMX track on a weekly basis and loves to shred it up on his park bike, his BMX bike and his MTB. Look for Jake to be on his new Supercross 4x as he starts the year by hitting up the Fontana series this year along with Kris Fox and Courtney Tomei as 2 more BMXers jump to the MTB side to show some BMX dominance.

Exciting times in 4X with another quality RACE brand joining the fun.We will be keeping in touch with Bill and updating as we get news.
