ROB BROWN — RACE TECH R&D

STARTING POINT: “I started out by revalving my own suspension. Through working on my own bikes, I became quite interested in suspension and put myself through a few suspension seminars. I did a lot of trial-and-error testing on my own bikes and eventually started my own business. I did that for many years and eventually had an offer from Paul Thede at Race Tech. The rest is history.

THE JOB: “As the head of R&D, I literally have my hands in everything. I test suspension with kids on Cobra 50s and AMA Pro guys. My crew and I also develop many of the new products that come out of the Race Tech facility. I love coming to the track, being one on one with the riders and helping them accomplish their goals.”
