What Fly Racing does

FLY Racing is a powersports protective gear and apparel manufacturer founded in 1998 and headquartered in Boise, Idaho. The company designs and produces helmets, goggles, boots, racewear (jerseys, pants, gloves), and body protection (roost guards, chest protectors, knee/elbow guards) for six sports disciplines: motocross/supercross, street/adventure motorcycle, snowmobile, mountain bike, BMX, and personal watercraft. Core technical differentiators include the proprietary BioFoam Chassis System in roost guards — which eliminates injury-causing plastic rivets and incorporates airflow channels — and helmets engineered to exceed the ECE 22.06 standard. The product portfolio carries safety certifications across ECE 22.05/22.06, DOT FMVSS No. 218, EN 13634, EN 13594, EN 1938, EN 1621-1/2/3, EN 1078, CPSC 16 CFR Part 1203, ASTM 1952, and ASTM 2032, with Declaration of Conformity documentation published for multiple product lines.

FLY Racing operates as a brand under Western Power Sports LLC (WPS), itself a subsidiary of Arrowhead Engineered Products, a US-headquartered holding company. Distribution runs through direct-to-consumer e-commerce at flyracing.com and an authorized dealer network, with shipments currently restricted to the 48 contiguous US states — Alaska, Hawaii, and international markets are explicitly excluded. Pricing spans roughly $29.95 (Radium Gloves) to $279.95 (FR5 Boots), positioning the line across mid-market and premium tiers within racing apparel. Revenue is generated through one-time hardware sales via seasonal collections including the MX26, SNW26, MTB, and BMX26 lines, plus casual apparel and accessories.

The go-to-market model leans heavily on professional athlete sponsorships across motocross, supercross, MXGP, GNCC, WORCS, and Australian supercross — including Cooper Webb (2025 Monster Energy Supercross Champion), Simon Längenfelder (MX2 World Champion), Lucas Coenen, Vicki Golden, and RJ Hampshire. The company supplements this with a FLY Fam Loyalty program (10 points per $1 spent), a Grassroots Giveback initiative ($112,267 donated in 2023), and an active presence on Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube. A strategic collaboration with Honda Powersports U.S. on the 2025 CRF lineup (announced August 2024) marks a notable OEM partnership. The addressable market is the global motorcycle gear sector, valued at $13.70 billion in 2024 and projected to reach $26.34 billion by 2033 at a 7.22% CAGR.
