Matrix Concepts Loses Founding Partner Arnold Taylor

  • Matrix Concepts Loses Founding Partner Arnold Taylor

In June of 2014, Matrix Concepts lost a key founding, member of its team and a great friend, Arnold Taylor.

Arnold grew up in the Santa Clarita riding motorcycles with childhood friend and Matrix Co-Founder, Eddie Cole. He was one of the first that Eddie, Chad, & Cameron called with the Matrix Concepts Idea. “We knew Arnold was the one that could design innovative products we needed to enter the market.” – Eddie Cole

Arnold was the creator of the product line that launched and propelled our brand into a leadership position. He was a brilliant designer/engineer that understood ever little detail about plastic composite materials, design, and production and is the reason 20 of the top race teams and best riders in the world choose our product. It is safe to say, without Arnold Taylor, there would have never been a Matrix Concepts. Arnold left behind a loving wife, wonderful kids, both of his parents, and his brother who is also a Matrix partner. As a tribute to honor Arnold, we will introduce a new (AT) design logo and place it on all of our 2015 products.

It is a tribute to honor a dear friend and designer who left us too soon.

Matrix Concepts has a very bright future because of him. Thank you Arnold (AT) for all you have done, you will forever be missed.
