DB Factory Racing is a competitive BMX racing team based on Vancouver Island with Internationally and Nationally top ranked athletes from BC and Alberta ranging in age from 12 to 36. Lead by former pro Tyler Clarke, the Factory Team consist of 10 athletes who have achieved outstanding performance over the years including World 1, World 4, World 7, World 8, countless Canadian #1 titles and top US National finishes in BMX's most competitive classes. These athletes dedicate their life to the sport of BMX and represent the cream of the crop in Canada's BMX racing scene.
When we set out to build this outfit, we looked for some of the fastest current and up-and-comer riders in the country. Secondly, we looked for individuals with a sound reputation and a common goal of achieving excellence through commitment, consistent discipline, willingness to help and encourage others but with a "compete hard” mentality while doing so with integrity and fairness towards others.
We are proud and grateful for each one of the riders listed above who made the commitment to represent our colours for the 2024 season. The entire roster is fired up and eager to compete to the best of their ability. We can't wait to snap on green ;)
