Central Powersports Distribution Announces X-Grip Agreement

X-Grip’s “stay on track” motto lives and breathes off-road.

Central Powersports Distribution (CPD) has announced an agreement with X-Grip of Austria to distribute X-Grip Tires, mousses and tubes in the U.S. The first X-Grip container has already arrived at CPD’s new Texas warehouse and is ready for U.S. distribution, effective immediately.

X-Grip’s “stay on track” motto lives and breathes off-road. Actively participating in the biggest and toughest races in the world for many years has given X-Grip the knowledge and real-world experience to produce long-lasting and high-performing tires to suit any off-road terrain. Unlike other brands that make every kind of tire imaginable, X-Grip’s focus is only for the dirt. The first time you try a set of these tires or mousses, you can feel X-Grip’s “For Riders, by Riders” passion.

X-Grip is quickly becoming a force in Europe thanks to its extreme hard enduro and enduro product lines that perform well in all conditions. X-Grip has a wide range of bib mousses to cover all levels of performance, conditions, longevity and “feel” that racing can bring. In addition, X-Grip also has a large selection of tubes, tools and components to fit your individual needs. 

CPD’s Mark Berg is pleased with the new partnership, stating, “In my opinion, the U.S. tire market is still missing a good lineup of dedicated off-road-specific tires. Sure, there are a lot of MX [motocross] and SX [supercross] tires out there, but what about something designed from day one for rocks, roots and logs? X-Grip Tires are the answer to fill this vacant yet in-demand niche. X-Grip continues to push the performance envelope in the off-road tires and mousses based on the needs and desires of enduro riders and racers. X-Grip is a fantastic fit for our growth in the off-road aftermarket segment, and we hope to grow the X- Grip name in the USA in years to come.”

CPD currently imports and distributes notable original equipment manufacturer (OEM) motorcycle brands, such as Rieju, Electric Motion, SWM and AJP, all while continuing to add more aftermarket off-road-specific brands to its growing portfolio. X-Grip is a great addition to the CPD family of brands already in distribution, including FunnelWeb Filters, S3 Parts, Viral Brand Goggles and Trick Bits Protection parts.
