In today's dirt bike gear market, riders have countless options to choose from. However, 24MX's own brand, Raven, stands out by offering quality gear at different price points. Let's dive into two impressive collections from their lineup: the entry-level Rival kit and the mid-level Verve collection.

Raven Rival Collection: Perfect for Beginners

The Rival kit serves as Raven's entry-level option, designed specifically for riders just getting into the sport. Despite its affordable price point, this collection doesn't skimp on essential features.

Jersey Features

The Rival jersey boasts a multi-panel construction using moisture-wicking polyester material, helping riders maintain optimal temperature during intense track sessions. A standout feature is the extended back panel with silicon printing, designed to grip into your pants and prevent unwanted movement. The jersey's stretchy cuffs are strategically designed to prevent arm pump and cramping during long rides.

Gloves Specifications

The Rival gloves combine simplicity with functionality. Key features include silicon printing on the fingers for enhanced grip on the clutch and brake levers. The extra padding on the thumb area prevents blisters during long rides, while a strong velcro fastener ensures a secure fit.

Pants Construction

Built for durability, the Rival pants feature a flexible polyester construction with reinforced knee areas to combat wear and tear from knee braces and guards. The pants include several practical features:

  • Stretch panels in the crotch and knee areas for unrestricted movement

  • Rubberized waistband for extra grip

  • Sturdy YKK zipper with button closure

  • Adjustable waist mechanism

  • Moisture-wicking mesh lining

Raven Verve Collection: Stepping Up Your Game

The Verve collection represents Raven's mid-level offering, bringing notable improvements in material quality and features. As of 2025 the gloves are not available any longer.

Enhanced Jersey Features

The Verve jersey immediately stands out with its superior material composition, offering increased stretch and significantly better breathability. Like its Rival counterpart, it maintains the essential features of stretchy cuffs and an extended tail piece with silicon graphics, but with upgraded materials throughout.

Advanced Pants Design

The Verve pants take durability and comfort to the next level with:

  • Increased number of stretch panels for improved mobility

  • Enhanced waist adjustment system with dual buttons

  • Extended YKK zipper

  • Additional velcro waist adjustments on the back

  • Premium leather material in knee areas for durability

  • Advanced moisture-wicking mesh lining

  • Fade-free sublimated graphics

Both the Rival and Verve collections come in multiple colorways, allowing riders to express their style while enjoying reliable protection and performance on the track. Whether you're just starting out or looking to upgrade your gear, Raven's lineup offers quality options that won't disappoint.
