Red Bull is one of those brands that, if you are not sponsored by them, you don't ride shit branded with their name unless you are a fucking poser

as a RB employee.... i really do not like these. The original logo/variations is athlete only! only RB event logos like Red Bull Rampage's logo is meant for general public.

@rideitall-bmx-dh-road-unicycle: Love how elitist that comment comes across. Yep no use of the logo for the lemmings who buy your drinks and pay the wages. They arent to be trusted those plebs. Newsflash your logo is on a million knock of items.

Agree. When you see people with fake Red Bull helmets skiing/mountain biking in Whistler it is super cringe, especially if a real Red Bull athlete is also in line (obviously if they are a kid who cares, but I've seen adults do it).

@gramboh: and what is the difference with wearing a Troy Lee jersey..or fox racing kit? or 5 ten shoes...or clothes from the same bike brand you ride...? this hobby/sport is like this..we always try to look like x and show off..

@oskimtb: Because those brands were originally made for consumers. And because they aren't Red Bull.

Example. My wife rides flats with 510. Why? Because they stick. I'm useless flats so I ride clips. I wear Giro shoes. Because they work. Not trying to be a poser for some brand. Just using gear that works - while not trying to look like I'm sponsored.

Perfect attire for the fullparkbro. Everyone will think you're sponsored until they see you ride, at which point they immediately realize you've gone full poser

You can pre soak them in Red Bull so with a simple press on the goggles you get a flow of sugary caffeinated goodness flowing down your cheeks and into you mouth. Refreshing. (Please note, this will only work with Red Bull, and no other energy drinks.)

Is this because red bull are fed up with athletes covering most of their helmet with someone else's goggles

Or you could just buy ones that don’t have redbull shit all over them...

So like, nobody is actually going to buy these.... right?

You gotta have big balls to dare wear Red Bull if you're not actually sponsored by them.

Nothing to see here, move along. No new innovation just double the price for off the shelf tech. Who doesnt spell check their marketing material. Tripple has one too many 't's in it.

Think it’s meant to stand for Work In Progress? If they’re trying to be all Carhartt
