Qloom Mountain Bike Clothing – What is a Qloomride?

What do you get when you combine technical, well-built, stylish mountain bike clothing with a great group of people who are passionate about providing an awesome riding and buying experience?  You get Qloom!

Making their presence known in the USA for the past year, Qloom is from Switzerland and has refined their summer and winter gear over the last 10 years.  Built around the body’s contours while riding, and meant to take the rigors of mountain biking while still looking good, this stuff is different.

These folks are the real deal.  They know who their customer is and how to build some serious brand respect and loyalty.  Dropping more than a hundred dollars on a pair of shorts is no small feat for some, but if you do you definitely don’t want to regret it.  Figure in years of enjoyment and multiple rides per year, looking good and feeling good and your return on investment is off the charts.

We here at Crankjoy prefer to invest in experiences over things, almost 100% of the time.  With that said, you still need a sick bike and gear to ride in.  In order to experience a #Qloomride, you should be around someone wearing either some Custom Qloom or at least a piece or two from recent collections.  The custom program is really slick.  You submit your ideas, colors, logos – basically all of your wants and needs and their super magical designers whip up a bunch of options for you to choose from.  Like a piece of one design and parts of another?  Great, just let them know and they’ll update the designs super quick.  Just look how great the custom Crankjoy stuff came out!

The main theme of our rides is fun and adventure, even if we are staying right in our own backyard!  Some of our best rides have been impromptu meetings of like-minded folk at a trail head or intersection.

It usually goes like this: “Hey where y’all from? Where are you heading from here?” and a friendship is formed.  Before you know it we’re at the local brewery sharing a pint with new friends.

That’s how it goes.  We still like to ride hard and push our limits, but it’s not always about the segment time or who gets to the top first.

Here’s a quick day in the life of Crankjoy, heading to Qloom in Boulder earlier this March.  Yeah, it’s a tough job, but somebody has to do it.
