The Swiss protection and apparel brand iXS is proud to announce the launch of the iXS Gravity Alliance, a new sponsorship program aimed at supporting Privateer downhill racers on their journey to the top step of the podium. This initiative is built to empower the heart and soul of mountain biking — the true racers who thrive between the tape, chasing podiums, and pushing their limits every weekend.

For Racers, Not Influencers

The iXS Gravity Alliance is exclusively designed for athletes who live and breathe racing. This initiative is tailored to those whose passion lies on the track. It’s a commitment to the riders who embody the pure essence of downhill mountain biking. The program is designed to help them achieve their personal goals. With the various series of the iXS Downhill Cup, the brand provides platforms for thousands of participants to compete. The iXS Gravity Alliance is now the next step for the brand to expand its commitment to the sport even further.

What’s in it for Privateers?
As a member of the iXS Gravity Alliance, Privateers will receive:

• Full ambassador support, including multiple kits, helmets, and protective gear from iXS to keep riders race-ready all season.
• Free entry to the iXS European Downhill Cup (EDC), enabling riders to focus on their performance without financial barriers.
• Additional perks from iXS athlete Wyn Masters’ Privateer Program sponsors, including high-performance Continental tires.
