I likey this gear. Also, I really really really wish Factory Effex would come out with this graphic kit as a "retro kit" for the new KX's, it has always been my favorite looking graphics kit.


I really dug Fro's look in those days as well. I remember the all black Shift gear he rocked around that time and it just looked harsh as F.

=) Remember washing my 1st gear leatherpants in hot water and it dried out 5 sizes smaller! Next year the "modern" pants came out and a new era started. That was the days........

When I was 13 I had a 1987 KX125 with oversized #9 and rocked the bones gear. Yes, I was a huge Lechien fan.

Really wish a gear mfg would come out with a quality set of gear, sans logos, in subdued colorways.

If I don't have an affiliation with your company, I have no interest in having your logo on my body or bike. No offense, it's just my personal preference.

My snowboard gear isn't covered in logos.
My surf trunks / wetsuit isn't covered in logos.
The clothes I wear on a daily basis aren't covered in logos.

I wish I had the same option for mx gear.
they do. See TT.....but its not cheap.

So you must have been familiar with Pistol Pete right? I won my Gold Cup qualifier at YBMX, loved coal Canyon but all my local races were at Rancho BMX (Temecula) and sometimes at Perris.

Good times.

Two words.

Bad Ass

Oh shit bro! That's it for me hand's down. I was 15 at the time that came out and would love to have a set and would rock it today. Anyone have a picture of Bradshaw or Stanton in the white pants? Bradshaw with the AXO gear and the original VFX Shoe helmet will always be the epidome of bad-ass to me. I think the boots were called RC-2's and were the first boots with almost no break-in time. Awesome awesome gear.

The coolest gear ever? My MSR gear from 1993. Hot pink and neon yellow. It definitely stood out on the track, no matter if I was in first or last. I was even rocking a football neck brace in the first pic.

Hell yeah! Bradshaw looking sharp. Favorite gear of all time. The MC Sinisalo gear was great too.

Emig had that shift camo gear in '98 or '99. I thought that looked pretty cool...can't seem to find a picture of it.

I loved all of Fox's gear from 2003-2005. I still like Fox's stuff, but those years were amazing.


Here's a pic of me at Piru Mx with the 2004 stuff on.
