Welcome to the team Westynn Iverson

We are very excited to announce Westynn Iverson will join our roster for the 2023 season. Westynn is only 18 years old finishing up his senior year with already huge potential and great communication. KHS Bicycles and myself pride ourselves on building a program that builds some of the best world class athletes. We have showcased athletes in the beginning of their careers of the likes of Jaxson Riddle, Ethan Nell, Nik Nestoroff and Bruce Klien to name a few. We plan to continue that success and help Westynn launch himself into the Freeride world with proper support and commitment. We are all very excited to see his projects, events and riding skills throughout the year. Welcome to the team. Westynn will be riding our KHS650B DH bike alongside his Free Agent Metus Hardtail!

 I am super stoked to be representing KHS Bicycles this year!!  I am super grateful for this opportunity and can’t wait to continue with them during this year! It has been a dream of mine to ride bikes professionally and KHS has made that dream come true! I am 18 years old and I have been riding bikes for about 5 years now and have loved every bit of it. I currently live on a farm and ranch in hurricane UT about 15 minutes from the red bull rampage sites where I spend most of my time riding bikes. Going into the 2023 season I am focusing on getting some sweet video…

Steven Walton has re-signed with the KHS Pro MTB Team, and we are excited for what he will bring to the team in 2023. Steven shard his thoughts and feelings with us about his excitement on his 2023 race season. “I’m stoked to continue working with the KHS Family and share with you that I’m with them for the next two years. Racing has been a huge part of my life for the last 10 years and being able to share that with a company that has such a large passion for the sport is huge.

I will continue to race DH nationally, while also putting a larger focus on our E-Bike line up, racing them at all the BME events as well as a few GNCC’s! The vibes are electric moving forward and I’m thrilled to be able to experience a different side of racing than what I’m used to. My goals going into the 2023 season are to lay down some great national results and continue to build great relationships within the industry! Stoked to have the support of these great companies and look forward to seeing everyone at the races!!”
