Corona CA - Pro Taper and Factory MDK KTM are proud to announce a multi-year agreement. The MDK KTM team will be using Pro Taper handlebars, grips, throttle tubes, handguards and sprockets starting in the 2008 race season.

“To have the MDK KTM Factory team added into our already potent lineup of factory race teams is very exciting for us here at Pro Taper,” said Pro Taper’s marketing manger Erick “Big E” Bartoldus. “With five lites podium contenders and Nick Wey riding a 450, the MDK KTM Factory team packs a solid punch that we are proud to be a part of,” added Bartoldus.

Director of Race Operations at MDK Racing Danny Paladino is equally enthusiastic about the relationship. “I've worked with Pro Taper for three years now and we have not had one problem with their products. 2007 was our first year on the all-new Pro Taper sprockets and I can say Pro Taper Sprockets are the best sprockets I've ever used. All of the crew at MDK KTM is looking forward to a successful 2008 SX & MX season with Pro Taper!”
