KYLE STRAIT UNVEILS BIKE FOR 2024 RED BULL RAMPAGE
Ari Bikes and Kyle Strait unveil the custom-painted Ari Superior Peak as he gears up for the 2024 Red Bull Rampage this week. Known for his fearless riding style and creativity, Strait’s new bike is more than just a high-performance bike for Rampage—it’s an ode to the Southwest region that shaped him into who he is today.
A Tribute to the Southwest
The custom Ari Superior Peak bike pays homage to the American Southwest with its vibrant sarape-inspired paint scheme. The bold colors and geometric patterns reflect the terrain that has shaped Kyle Strait’s career, connecting his roots to his passion for extreme riding. For Strait, this bike symbolizes his journey, bringing the freedom and inspiration he first felt in Virgin, Utah, when he started competing as a young rider.
Uphold the Legacy
Strait’s deep connection to the Southwest is further highlighted through details like pearl snap-inspired accents, accomplished via “engine-turned” silver leaf, and hand-painted pin-striping, nodding to classic Western style. These elements serve as reminders of his upbringing and the values of hard work, resilience, and freedom that have influenced his approach to the sport.
“This place has shaped so much of my career. As a young 14-year-old coming out here for the first time, I couldn’t believe the possibilities,” says Strait. “It’s been 23 years, and that freedom still feels so real. The custom paint job on this bike is my way of bringing a piece of that with me into this year’s Rampage.”
