Anyone have any insight on what gear Tomac will be wearing for '14? Or Hahn for that matter? I know Kdub had his own gear deal on the 450 but I'm curious to see if these guys will also have that option or be forced to wear Alias like the rest of the team.

Tomac probably will go with the most money,longest contract. He has the gear choices, not sure about Hahn, 250 guys will be wearing alias . He is gonna get a juicy deal from.someone.

I could be wrong but I think I remember reading that Hahn would still be running Alias but that Tomac would be open to get his own gear deal. If anyone knows for sure feel free to step in and correct me because I'm just trying to go off memory (which doesn't always go too well).

On that note, I thought Barcia would've went the Shift route.

This is correct from what I've heard.

Tomac answered this on Pulp....he did have an option to get any gear he wanted but decided to stay and he signed a deal with Alias. Many thought he would go back to TLD like when he was an am which would have been cool, but not the case.

Not the case. All 250 guys will be Alias. Tomac will most likely be A-star's.

I was inclined to think you were an idiot. Mxracer34 clearly stated he heard it straight from the horses mouth on pulp. Done deal. Then I saw his avatar.

Hey bud that's cool, if that's what makes you happy at the end of the day more power to you! Just an FYI though cuz it sucks some people can't ever explain or understand, I'm a huge bike fan, grew up on bikes started riding at 4 like most amateurs, raced around the country,I still at go to many races and love the sport to death. Unfortunately after a bad crash in my teens I was forced to quit or ride quads, for the love of the sport of mx I chose quads and kept riding! I could care less if you forgive or hate quads or what ever makes you happy by beatin me down as a quad rider, but I hope you think twice someday about maybe why some people do things for a reason......

I would speculate TLD also...he's been rocking what looks like a TLD chest pro all season and Troy could use a marquee rider other than the team guys.

I just have a hard time thinking Alias would let him go since they are also involved in team ownership. That's a huge expense for TLD when they already have a dedicated avenue for their marketing in their own team. I'm sure there are a few companies vying for his services. It is fun to speculate though!
