Shiner’s Redline Racing and Troy Lee Designs will join forces in 2012 to compete on the UK and international race scene as Redline Troy Lee Racing.

Troy Lee Designs first teamed up with Redline racing rider and junior men’s British champion Jacob Roberts for the 2011 race season.

Troy Lee Brand Manager Jon Sangan said: “We are not only excited but proud to be joining forces for 2012. With the UK hosting both the Olympics and the World BMX championships in 2012 there couldn’t be a better time to launch the Redline Troy Lee Racing team.”

Jai Kemp, who has been the Redline Team Manager for the past five years and will continue to manage the new Redline Troy Lee Racing team for 2012, said: “I have seen the team grow from strength to strength over the past five years.

“This is an exciting time for Redline racing, we have a new team for 2012 and with Troy Lee Designs on board I believe we are set for success in 2012.”
