Rox Speed FX: An inspiring business in our backyard

24 Jul 2024

News

Rox Speed FX, Inc is a company in the backyard of the Grand Rapids area that has been serving the power sports industry since 1999. This local business, referred to the paper by a family friend, has been an innovative company specializing in customizations and helping others since its inception.

Rocky Cutsforth, the creator of Rox Speed FX , loved snowmobiles and riding and all things motorsports. He was six feet two inches tall and wanted to ride his snowmobile standing up, something that was hard to do at the time. He created a riser that enabled the handlebars of the snowmobile to be raised to a better position so that one could stand up on it. Rocky's innovativeness was learned from his dad, David Cutsforth, an inventor and creator.
