I have bought a ton of gear from Revzilla. Never had a bad interaction. The store and staff are great . Would suck to lose this.

Man, I really like RevZilla. Hopefully if they do buy it they can keep what makes them special!

Well, they're talking the talk.
Hope they'll walk the walk.

if that 4-500m figure is correct, that's incredibly impressive, considering they've only been at it for 8 years or so...

I agree, their site and their service is second to none.

So, a year later, Anthony left Revzilla.

I've been through or dealt with a number of 'mergers' in my life, I've not had one turn out well, or at least as good as the original structure.  Most recent one was my business bank (after I changed to it from my old bank that merged after another merger...) and they blew a lot of smoke about how it was going to stay the same... but all the old people are gone and, no, it's not the same.

RevZilla Quietly Gets a New CEO, Ken Murphy

https://www.asphaltandrubber.com/news/revzilla-ceo-president-ken-murphy/

Well, technically, Comoto Holdings, which owns both RevZilla and Cycle Gear gets new CEO, who has no motorcycle experience.

To me personally, it makes no difference, as I haven't purchased anything from Revzilla in the last couple of years, and will not be buying anything major (riding gears).
(I don't need any more riding gears, and they don't have what I want/need.)
