Meet EVS
Makers of Protection
Written by Todd Lentz   

EVS LogoThe year was 1985.  With motocross athletes plagued by the injuries of increased speed, fierce competition and natures land.  EVS was born. 

The original product, the AMX-5 knee brace, which has been worn by some of the world’s most prestigious athletes was the building block for today’s most complete protection product line ever, EVS.  It didn’t take long to realize the need and demand for a complimentary soft goods line and so we set out to expand.  Over the last 10 years of hard product development, testing and research, we have released a series of the finest products ever to hit the motocross market. 

Today’s athletes are falling victim to one of the most devastating competitor ever – INJURY.   With the same dedication motocross athletes put into their sport and the endless moments of sweat, blood and tears.  EVS has spent the past 2 decades solely focused on keeping them safe.  Keep in mind that EVS is “The Original Protective Gear Company”.

What is Crowerpower?
Makers of Power
Written by matt   

Crowerpower logoWell my dad Bruce started Crower Cams in 1956 with his custom cam grinding for drag cars, street cars and Nascar.  He knew more about cams and engines than anyone, and made a large automotive manufacturing company and is still in business after 50 years in San Diego.

In 1999 Crowerpower was formed.  Racing mini bikes with our kids and friends was our passion and at that time we switched our attention to making racing camshafts for these new bikes with the 4 stroke movement.  The XR50 and the YZF 400 were big back then and we started learning how to make these bikes, with our cams, go faster than anyone.  So then in 1994 we started really seeing the 4 stroke future and relocated our shop from San Diego to Lake Elsinore, California; the hub of the MX world.  KTM racing was here, the tracks were here and all the riders and go-fast shops were in this area of California.
