well i was really liking them, and still am but i have just found out they have been bought by silverfish...... imo this takes a lot away from the brand image and although i understand its still the same top tech guys working on the products and will make very little difference to end user in the early days but i was really liking the idea of suspension gurus taking on the big boys of marketing. i was loving the fact that the guys had pretty much told marzochi to go away and they did not need them.....but now silverfish has bought them i fear it will no longer be end users that remain the main focus of these guys and the pressure of cash hungry investors might over time become more important....

I didn't realise that silverfish were corporate giants. Thought it was a handful of beach bums who liked playing with bikes.

Umm... I think you have the wrong end of the stick watsontony- silverfish are importing DVO. They've not bought the company.

Bos are now with surf sales too so the fork market looks interesting!

That's how rumours start. . .

Even if it were true; would that be such a bad thing? We're hardly ICI or Coca Cola!
We're slightly more professional than Onzadog describes but he's essentially right on the money ๐Ÿ™‚

Good job really seeing as the former split itself up, the chemicals business were sold off through th e90's and 2000's then the owners of Crown bought out the paint business which is all that was left by about 2006.
