Enter K-Tech’s ProValve
A premium internal suspension upgrade built for riders who want more control, more confidence and more range in their setup.
But a great product alone isn’t enough.
To land, we needed a creative approach that not only spoke to hardcore Enduro and MX riders but made ProValve the obvious choice.
Here’s how we turned ambition into action - and action into results.
Knowing the market
The U.S. off-road market isn’t just big… it’s a goldmine of opportunity.
Research showed that in 2025:
With a wide fitment range covering the top five MX and Enduro brands, ProValve was primed to make an impact.
By mapping service centres, rec sites and key off-road events, we homed in on three key southern states where year-round riding meant year-round sales potential.
Understanding the audience meant getting inside their heads – what makes them tick, what they value and how they talk about products.
We weren’t just selling suspension. We were selling control, confidence, the ability to push harder, ride longer and dominate the track.
Aspirational branding and proposition
This isn’t just another upgrade – it’s the upgrade.
A high-ticket product needs a high-value message, so we leaned into what sets ProValve apart: Swiss-watch precision, customisable control and elite performance.
Every touchpoint needed to reinforce that this was next-level tech and engineered to win.
We refined the product branding and messaging to align with U.S. market expectations, keeping it stealthy, classified and undeniably cool.
The visible benefit
Internal suspension isn’t exactly showy, so we focused on the two things riders will see: the top cap and sticker.
That’s where desire kicks in.
These elements became the visual identity of the product – sleek, high-performance and engineered for those who demand more.
Photography that speaks for itself
K-Tech parts are a cut above and the visuals needed to match.
We went for a hyper-detailed, almost render-quality aesthetic, paired with high-energy action shots – flying dirt, big hits and raw off-road power.
The result? A gallery of images that make you feel the ProValve difference before you even touch it.
Education
We couldn’t rely on riders knowing how ProValve fits into their bike.
So, we showed them. A CGI animation broke it down in seconds – from full forks to exploded views of the internals.
Clear, technical and premium.
The hero video
All roads led to this – a high-energy, hard-hitting hero video. Featuring real-world riding, slow-mo suspension impact shots and a punchy U.S. voiceover.
This wasn’t just an ad. It was a battle cry for serious riders who want control without compromise.
The takeaway
Strategy means nothing without execution.
By aligning audience insight, market research and a strong creative vision, we turned K-Tech’s 2025 goal into an unmissable campaign.
The result? A product that doesn’t just sit in the market – it owns it.
