Interesting – I saw an obtuse comment on Twitter about it and assumed Bell had bought RF!

Easton Bell Sports are in deep deep do-do and need cash fast due to the lawsuits currently under way against their Riddel brand which does helmets for the NFL.

sheeeeeiiiiiiiiiit

thought raceface were done for not long ago how come they are now buying up the competition?

Be interesting to see if they keep Eastons carbon manufacturing facilities or farm it out to the Far East, or even start making RF carbon products in Eastons factories..
The latter would be best IMO..
