Intense BMX is proud to announce the addition of Kelvin Batey to the 2006 World Team. Kelvin will join Jamie Staff and Michael Robinson on the Intense BMX World Team. In 2006, Kelvin will be competing in the UK National Series, the UCI European Championships series, and at the World Championships in Brazil. Kelvin has already been selected by the Great Brittan Racing squad as one of the riders whom have been brought into the Olympic training program and will train and travel with the staff from the GBR training squad.

After years with One Bicycles, Kelvin Batey has left to join forces with Intense BMX. It was a tough decision for him to leave his long time sponsor, but Kelvin was enticed by the direction of Intense BMX and how far they have come in just a year and a half.

Kelvin: “I am really looking forward to going into 06 with team Intense and the incredible support for the GBR squad. Combined I don’t think I could be getting any better support.” “After riding the Intense bike on the first day, It felt perfect and I feel race ready.”

Kelvin will also receive support from THE, and SINZ from VSI products for the 2006 season. Intense BMX and Tires, THE Products, and Sinz components are all distributed by Snap Distribution in the UK. Intense BMX has recently won the Golden Crank, an award that the racers of the American Bicycle Association vote on, to pick there choice of Bike of the year. We are happy to have Kelvin on the team and look forward to a long relationship. The Intense World team will receive support from THE Products, Shimano, Intense Tires, and SINZ.
