kubik cycle sales // KITTANNING, PA // kibukcycle.com // 724-548-7628
Kibuk Cycle Sales was founded in April of 1966 by Nick Kibuk and his wife, Nancy. Our first franchise was Yamaha, and we built from there to be one of the oldest-running powersports dealers on the East Coast. We presently hold franchises with Yamaha, Honda, Suzuki, CFMoto, SSR Motors/Benelli, and Kymco. We have a large parts and accessories department with three parts associates on hand. We also have a full service department with multiple mechanics. (Our hours are Tuesday through Friday 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Saturday 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. We are closed Sunday and Monday.) Nick Kibuk remains president of the company, followed in command by his son Nicholas Kibuk. We are currently very active in the local and national MX and off-road scenes. In 2019 we brought Josh Lojak into our sales team, and he is also a big part of our race team growth and development. We expect to be a leader in local race shops this year. We would like to thank all of our customers for the support they give us.

luxon mx // san diego, ca // luxonmx.com // 858-586-1100
Luxon MX is an offshoot of Luxon Engineering, a Southern California mechanical engineering firm. The engineering business works with companies such as Apple, General Atomics, and Pfizer. Nuclear reactors, spacecraft, and spinal implants are some of the projects they work with on a daily basis.
The motocross industry is fairly young in terms of engineering techniques. Luxon MX was born from the owner’s passion for moto and an opportunity to leverage Luxon’s unique expertise. Luxon is challenging the status quo by offering motocross products driven from engineering techniques not typically used in the industry.
Luxon MX is different from most. We’re not a machine shop that decided to make motocross parts; we’re an engineering firm that decided to make motocross parts (we just happen to have a machine shop too). Luxon’s products are proudly designed and manufactured in our San Diego facility. Check us out at luxonmx.com or on Instagram @luxonmx.
