In 1974, Bob Fox ran a small business distributing suspension components for motocross bikes with his brother Geoff. In 1977,[1] the company split into what became Fox Racing (later Fox Head Inc.) under Geoff Fox, and Bob Fox's Fox Racing Shox parts production company, Fox Factory. A holding company, Fox Factory Holding, was established in 1978.[3] Fox Factory produces suspension components for motorcycles, automobiles, all-terrain vehicles, side-by-sides, trophy trucks, snowmobiles, and mountain bikes.[1]
