Fresh Product: 2022 Thor MTB Range

4 years ago | Words: Thor | Photos: Thor

If you can’t ride moto every day, the next best thing has to be jumping onto a MTB.
Lucky for you, Thor has the same idea! You can now rep the iconic moto brand on your pushy.
Here’s the official news from Thor..

Living the two-wheeled life is not limited to the tracks and trails only accessible via combustion engines. It was only natural for the original motocross racewear brand to cross over to the bike world and with this goal in mind. Thor added five-time UCI World Cup Champion and eight-time USAC National Champion, Aaron Gwin to the factory team. Gwin, who hails from Southern California, started his two-wheeled-domination early on, racing BMX at a national level, then quickly graduating to the motocross racing scene throughout his teenage years.

At 20 years old, Aaron was encouraged to give downhill mountain bike racing a go and saw immediate success, competing on the UCI world stage after only 8 months of racing. “I’ve been a huge fan of the Thor brand since I was a kid,” said Gwin. “My dad bought me my first Thor kit from the local motorcycle store when I was twelve and I always dreamed of racing for them like a pro when I grew up. Having the opportunity now to be the rider who will launch the Thor brand into mountain biking is pretty awesome. It’s funny how certain things in life come full circle, this is definitely one of those childhood ‘dream come true’ type of moments for me. I can’t wait to get started.”

Thor is not only excited about their MTB range, but are driven to meet your range of needs. “Whether an integral part of your cross-training routine, or enjoyed as an evening rip with friends, we are proud to offer a line of Bike apparel that is inspired by our decades-long dedication to perfecting motocross equipment. The new Assist collection bridges the gap from casual trail riding, to all-out downhill racing. From thigh-burning climbs for PRs, to eBike cruises for pure enjoyment, Assist has got you covered.”
