As per Kevin's video on their facebook Page:

It’s been a tough year for us and we have tried many different things to keep everything going, but unfortunately it’s come time to throw in the towel.

We have met thousands of amazing people over these past 15 years. This decision was not made lightly and with a very heavy heart Rapid Revolutions is coming too a close.

Our last day open for regular business hours will be Monday Feb 10 9-5:30pm

Any customers that have product on order, products waiting to be picked up or still want to order parts before Tuesday you will have till February 28th to arrange pickup.

Please call, text or email the store to arrange for pickups.

**For all your future power sports needs please visit our friends at UTV Canada Inc**
We have arranged for them to take over some of our exclusive product lines.

Thank you so much to everyone for your many years of loyal support. We couldn’t have made it this far without you.


We at Snowandmud wish to thank Kevin and his teams for all of their support of our website and events over the last several years. I personally have always had outstanding service from the gang at Rapid and am truly saddened to see it come to this. We all need to think twice before ordering stuff online for our toys folks, saving $5 could be the difference between having a store like Rapid down the road, or not.

lots of changes in this volatile climate in alberta. Lots of dealerships for sale in alberta right now and if they don’t sell they may close their doors as well. Tyler is right. Support your local dealers guys and gals.

agreed!

I stopped in an visited Kevin today, it sounds like they were super close to being able to continue until some investors backed out. He's a smart man with some super hot irons in the fire. He'll do well, however there is going to be a huge void in the Edmonton area when it comes to ATV Parts/Tires and Accessories.

They still have lots on the shelves in the store, and I'm sure it's clearance priced. Definitely worth stopping in and giving him the personal "thanks" in my opinion.

Really? You would think online would be the way to go seeing how it's 2020 and all

Kevin's got some tricks up his sleeve, don't write that side of things off yet, he's a smart man.

I could see the angle. A lot of business is moving away from the traditional storefront style.

yes the store front, with all the overhead is losing out! no idea if that is what they are doing, just sounds like it from what i read.
