SNAFU brand manager Harold "McGoo" McGruther approached Bischoff regarding the SNAFU takeover last winter. After 13 years at the helm of the boutique brand he co-founded in 1999, the 50-year-old bike-industry veteran simply chose to pursue other business interests. Matt Bischoff has been a part of the SNAFU team since the brand's inception in 1999, and brings to the program a wealth of enthusiasm and experience.
