MAKZ GEAR - Key Persons
Aaron has been around bikes since he was 4 years old and gained 16 years experience in parts and sales including working at a multi franchise dealership. He enjoys his role at MAKZ GEAR as he's surrounded by bikes, jetskis and people, it's a perfect job for him! Aaron has been involved in both road and off-road riding and competing. He now enjoys adventure riding and the odd MX trail ride. In the summer, he doesn't mind taking the ski out for a spin either!
Colin expertly performs the General Manager role, but to the team he's often referred to as ‘Dad'. He has been riding bikes for over 40 years and has over 20 years experience on the mechanical and servicing side, so there's very little Colin doesn't know! He has enjoyed riding both road and off-road bikes over the years, but these days prefers dirt bikes…he even competed in the Vet Class MX recently. Colin is a real people person and enjoys working with a great team and making sure customers are always satisfied with their experience
Serge's journey started out over 35 years ago, working in a workshop as a mechanic in France. After owning a number of dealerships (including being the youngest Kawasaki dealer in France) he moved with his family to New Zealand in 2017 looking for a new adventure and different lifestyle. He found this when he moved to Tauranga and bought MAKZ GEAR. Serge has a huge amount of experience. He got involved in bikes at 13 years of age with this father and has raced both dirt and road bikes. These days, you're more likely to find him out on the water on a ski. Serge loves the relaxed nature of the industry and the contact with customers. He's proud that at MAKZ GEAR, people are not just customers, they become friends.
