One of my good friends (and fellow rider) just north of the age of 30 recently got diagnosed with cancer for the 3rd time. This time it has reached his brain and a roughly 30% survival rate. Him and his little girls race the local harescramble series here in NY and with a benefit and silent auction coming up for him, I reached out to some of my industry sponsors to see what I can do for him. After one email sent to Dawn at FXR a few days ago, I got a response saying they'd be glad to donate some things. I come home from work yesterday to a random big box on my porch and a little confused since I didn't order anything that big. When I opened it, I couldn't believe my eyes. Purely a class act by FXR and went way above and beyond what I had in mind. If you're in the market for new snow gear or moto gear and apparel, I highly recommend heading over to fxrracing.com and see what they have to offer.

Hoping for the best for your friend.

I have been wearing the FXR Moto gear and couldn’t be happier. The fit of the gear and the quality are top notch ! I’ve never had gear that was so damn comfortable. The materials they are using are very stretchy and it’s holding up great.

Planned to get their gear next. This just helps solidify that.

Contrast this with a popular graphics company. I was selling a bike and the buyer was a deployed vet. His dad was buying it for him. I wanted to put his number/name and graphics on it as a surprise. I called the company and told them what I was doing and why to see if they’d help. Best they did was “you could buy a gift card” or similar. Fuck them, haven’t bought a set from them since.

FXR are good peeps.
That’s all I run now, top notch gear and fit. I’ve got at least a dozen sets. Amateur and privateer support is awesome.
They’ve done a great job and come a long way.

Was trying to decide what kit to get this year. I’ll think I’ll go with FXR! Pure class.

I had an older Cold Cross jacket and pants back in my younger days of racing snocross. Was great stuff. I still have the pants. Held up very well now (10 years?). I now race in FLY Racing snocross stuff.

I have a ton of old FXR from racing snocross. Busted some of it out this weekend to watch my kid play high school football in the 10 degree cold and snow. My favorite piece of gear is my old pit coat, darn near 20 years old but love that jacket.

Very good people, great product and a superb customer service. Dawn kills it and does more than expect for the riders and Andy is always easy to talk to and is more than fair to the little guys.

Milt, Andy and Dawn are great people. Got to know them through my sponsorship with them this year and they brought me on board as a rider rep. Dawn and Andy are easily two of the easiest people I have ever dealt with in this industry. I am stoked they did this for you and your buddy. Good luck to your buddy and his family in these times.
