So someone here should know the skinny on how this will affect us:

Is the bike portion separate? I thought they bought Raceface last year? I googled it. Raceface bought Easton presumably just the bike stuff, then Fox bought then both.

Debate? Bikes are made for riding not pushing.

Correct. The bike division was acquired by RF.

I would imagine it will affect the bike side very little. But what do I know..?

And then acquired by fox. I'm sure fox will be ok. Maybe fox will buy out the rest of Easton and get into the hockey or football game. Seems like a lot of fox brand loyalists in the mx camp might support fox football gear.

^Fox Shox and Fox Racing Inc (apparel) aren't the same company.

Might be time to stock up on Hall curves or just stop playing altogether

I don't know. Altamont holdings could really get into hockey bigtime. They could give people medical advice at taco bell about post confusion syndrome from they received wearing a billabong helmet from a hit by a dating hockey stick. Lol

As far as I know, Easton Hockey and Easton Cycling are totally different companies.
