Screenshot from Fox's Insta Story, know it's been talked about for a while but looks like the cat is finally out of the bag

Makes sense financially and from a marketing standpoint. Fox stands on its own pretty easy. I always liked the shift product through out the years.

I know they are the same company, but what a signing for SHIFT. Can't get a bigger name than Roczen

I'm not sure Roczen is a better choice than Reed, long term probably but his fan base shrinks every time he opens his mouth.

Don't even pay attention to what he says, I just read what other people have said about him. Seems to be becoming a cocky dick.

I just picked up my throwback shift "kit."

He won't look as good on that cr 250 when he does opening ceremonies.

You dont sound like a fan so why bother posting about him?

I used to be, I guess it all depends on this year. I'm just repeating what I read. Like I said, I stopped reading after the beach rant.

I didn't need to use that language, I've just read a lot of posts from people who are no longer fans.

How can you repeat something you've read when you say you've stopped reading?

Damn i don't know... The things he says, or apparently just "what other people say about him" may make him a little cocky... But when the guy says things like 'I want them to be afraid', and 'I feel like I have something he doesn't' makes me more of a fan. Can he take it a little far sometimes? maybe. But he's killing it, and you think he got there by being less than confident? No. Maybe he needs to hang it out there a little and say some things as an incentive to work harder and go out there to back it up. Whatever it is, its working. RD does what he does and it works for him. Dudes a stud too, and I'm a fan, don't get me wrong, but its a little vanilla. This kid wants to drink a beer in a post race interview and call some dudes out to fuel the fire, I'm all for it.. We can use a little of that. I hope he kills it. Funny thing is I'm an even bigger Eli fan and as quiet as he is, I hope he steps it up even more. I cant wait

2017 we revert back to simple, less-is-more designs. Not a bad thing at all. I like wild designs, but when every single set of gear is wild, it's very pleasing to see a straight to the point, aesthetically pleasing seat of gear.

To a user's point above, this has been the 'Seven' Gear's philosophy for quite some time now. It got really big with Fasthouse and now we're seeing the switch back to Minimalism.
