Roam Bike Fest

Crankjoy Women’s Mountain Bike Gear Reviews – Roam Bike Fest 2017

This fall Crankjoy attended the Roam Women’s Bike Fest with a couple of things in mind.  First, connect with a bunch of awesome women in our previous hometown of Sedona for a great time and second TEST out badass women’s gear.

The idea has been in the back of our minds for a while. After a couple of beers following a Roam Ladies event in Brevard, NC with dynamic duo – Andi Zolton and Ash Bocast everything was clear.  There needed to be an all women’s festival and why not conduct a women’s bike test at the same time. The Crankjoy Women’s Bike Test was born!

Wondering which shorts are our favorites?

Well, it’s not as easy as that!  We assembled testers to help us with all of the gear, and if you know us women we are opinionated.  Special thanks to Andi Zolton, Jenna Hoover and Sara Stanford for labouring in the desert to try out all of this new gear.
