THOR MX have announced that they have re-signed 2018 title contender & Red Bull Factory KTM rider Marvin Musquin. The likeable Frenchman first signed with THOR in 2013 when he moved his career to the US after a successfull stint in MXGP. He moved on from THOR in 2014 but his results made the brand rethink the parting and they reunited again in 2016.

2017 has been an amazing year for Musquin and it's no doubt that he has 'come of age'. His smooth technical riding style and dedicated work ethic have seen #25 shoot to the top of the 450 class. Surprisingly he had not even won a single 450 Supercross race before this year and now he is in the short list for taking home the 2018 title! He has literally wiped the floor with the competition in the off season including wins at the Monster Energy Cup, Red Bull Straight Rhythm, Paris Supercross, and Geneva Supercross. He even took home a cool $1 million dollars in the Monster Energy Cup, becoming the second rider to have ever done this.

Even off the bike he is a likeable guy and that combined with his sporting results have made him a great brand ambassador for THOR. I wish him the best of luck in 2018 and i for one will be cheering him on :)

THOR MX brand manager

"We are immeasurably happy to continue our relationship with Marvin. After four great years of support, including his banner year in 2017 and absolutely dominating the off-season, we at THOR are all looking forward to great things to come in this partnership for the long-term. When it comes to Marvin’s performance, the cliché ‘this is only the beginning' is definitely an understatement."
