The iXS Downhill Cup has long been established as one of the most prestigious downhill racing series in the world and celebrates its tenth anniversary this year.
For the 2012 season, we are happy to continue their support as main sponsor and play such a substantial in all four series. Look out on the podiums for the MS Mondraker racing team. They will be riding our downhill suspension dream team; the 888 RC3 Evo Titanium and Roco RC World Cup rear suspension!

For its tenth anniversary, the iXS Dowhnill Cup is shaking off any dust that may have collected over the years and is starting with new drive and energy. Of course, we are more than happy to be on board again, especially since we are supporting the reigning iXS European DH Cup champion 2011 Markus Pekoll and Brooke MacDonald (5th place) as part of the MS Mondraker racing team. “Gravity mountain biking is our passion and we intend to continue being part of it, as we have been from the start. Personally, I can’t wait for the racing series to start and I will keep my fingers crossed for Markus and Brooke to climb back to the top of the podium”, says Simone Bassi of Tenneco Marzocchi.

With our suspension products, the MS Mondraker racing team has the best hardware to once again dominate the iXS DH Cup racing series in 2012. The 888 RC3 Evo Ti is the lightest coil DH fork on the market with no extra weight to slow you down during the race while still offering all the advantages of a coil. Stable, reliable and durable, this fork won’t let you down when every split second counts. Together with the Roco RC World Cup which you can rely on to keep your back wheel under perfect control, this is a winning combination for a podium or shredding down your local trails.
