Steve Peat Signs with EVOC SPORTS

EVOC is pleased to announce the signing of current UCI World DH Champion and all round MTB legend Steve Peat. The sports luggage brand has brought a fresh approach to the MTB market with their stylish and high performance products, which are made with high quality and high function right across the range. The young company has been making serious waves in the luggage and trail pack market and having the current UCI World Champion join the team is the icing on the cake for the brand. EVOC's marketing manager Jan Sallawitz said: "It is incredible how much attention we are getting after only being in the market for 2 years. Initially we made bags just for ourselves and now we are absolutely stoked that so many people love our stuff – including a world champion! Having the chance to work together with Steve Peat is a great step for us, not only because of his long time experience with travel luggage and backpacks that can make our products way better, but especially because of his absolute passion for mountain biking. This was one of the reasons for us founding EVOC in the first place. Welcome aboard, Peaty!" Steve will be using the full range of EVOC luggage to transport his bike and kit to races and events, as well as the range of back packs to take his hydration system and tools out on the trail. With a full C.E rated spine protector built into the FREERIDE CC and FREERIDE TRAIL back packs they are the perfect companion to Steve when he heads out on the trail. As a rider who likes to ride at full throttle the EVOC high performance and low weight do not hinder movement whilst riding, and knowing that your back is protected is a top priority for anyone, let alone a World Champion. After years of travelling the globe racing his bike Steve is also very happy to be ditching the old cardboard bike boxes in favour of the EVOC Bike Travel Bag. The bike travel bag has become 'the' way of transporting your bike and is the number one choice for riders, racers and magazine editors alike. Between them they have given the bag 10/10 scores in tests and now with Peaty on board it is the choice of champions. "I am very happy to be joining the EVOC team and to be using their quality products both on the bike and when travelling the world. The trail packs offer such high performance and knowing I have a full back protector built-in gives me the peace of mind to go faster out on the trail. The bike travel bag is so easy to use I know I can put my new carbon V10 straight in, zip it up and head off to the race track without the need to keep taping a box up, brilliant." Peaty commented. EVOC would like to take this opportunity to welcome Steve Peat to the EVOC family. Having a World Champion on the team further proves the performance of the EVOC range and is testament to the performance of the product. EVOC protect the things you love!
