Boise, ID - Supercross season is just around the corner, and Rekluse is pleased to announce their race team partners for the 2016 season.  
"We are excited to support so many great partners with our clutch technology," said Austin Paden, Pro Support Manager. "We are driven by helping our riders achieve their performance goals and we're happy to play a part in pushing the sport forward in 2016."

Based out of Monroe, WA, the BRP team has grown from humble origins in 2012 into a well-polished team with serious podium potential. 2016 marks the first season they have partnered with Rekluse.
"Over the years we have used other clutch components to get the maximum power to the ground, but it was always a constant work in progress," said Scot Steffy, Barn Pros Team Manager. "With Rekluse all we have to do is plug and play because they have the best clutch system on the market today. When winning is on the line we cannot accept second best." The Yamaha backed team will be contesting the West Coast Championship.
