Hats off @SCOTT-Sports marketing department, fantastic.

I think I need one of these, but i'm not shaving off my beard.

 You got that right for sure and for certain. The latest Big S adds have been shark jump material. Dig the Vincent Price-esk narration. Also, Nino's facial expression changes......

 More people should follow your lead. And who knows, the world might just become a better place...

 That is a BOLD move......and suspension linkage and internal shock design. Take a look at the BOLD Unplugged Vol 1. Looks like Scott acquiring BOLD worked out well for both companies.
