Women in the sport is nothing but positive. I have never looked down or different at female riders. We're all very lucky to be immersed in such a great sport in this time.
A truly inspiring film! These women show other women that there are so many possibilities and that there is nothing to be afraid of. Yes, it's a pretty rough sport, but hey... I would be very glad to see more women on the trails at my hometown. I somehow dragged my girlfriend to this sport, and she has much joy in riding her bike + learning new things. Also, every time she progresses more than me - I feel so proud of her :)
Absolutely love all the mini documentaries that y'all have done and this one is no exception. It's unfortunate that some of these women had the experiences they had, but their love for the sport and the passion they have to succeed definitely wasn't dulled at all. Keep kicking ass ladies!
This was so fun to watch! I’m falling in love with mountain biking as a 35 year old mom. I’m not sitting on the sidelines, I’m in the sport with my husband and kids.
All are great role models in the industry, for achievement and just being good people with a passion for life. Hannah is on point, the industry will be better and benefit from more women involved at every level. Nicely done spotlight Freehub!
It's so interesting that this story (and so many others) focus on women inspiring other women. My suggestion is to not stop there -- women can and do inspire men, too. As a man, I can point to several women in my cycling journey who have been my mentors and have helped me to grow. In return I have mentored many men and women. This story also should be told. Women limiting their stories to helping other women is just another glass ceiling that needs to be broken.
I was shocked at the story that women are still being payed less for the same job. This the twenty first century, come on! As a man I want to see women enjoying the sport I love in their own way.😊
Everything functions properly ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxHL1v1R3NE5x4KiYfyt8dnQmyNYz7qi5L Nothing was damaged in the box aside from a decal on the fork. The decal was missing a piece of a corner but I ended up peeling them off anyways. Assembly is easy BUT make sure you tune up the derailleurs. Both the front and rear need adjusting. I'd advise going to a bike shop but I opted out and put in 10+ hours with the help of UA-cam. Ended up fraying a shifter cable but all in all I learned from the experience. The Brakes work well but the front caliper needs adjusting or at least mine did because the rotor was rubbing against the pads. Make sure you swap out the seat, grips, and pedals. For the short run you'll be fine though. I've read that this bike isn't built yet for hard trails but I just need it for the city. PA has some of the worst roads and being in a mountain this was a great choice. Worth the investment!
Would have been nice if you included all these women’s UA-cam links or social media links. You make a video about them, why would you not promote them, it’s hard enough trying to find women in this sport online as it is.
Weird.... I'm a dude and have a successful career. I would like to take my experience to the bike industry as I am very passionate about riding but cannot get any company to give me the time of day.
Same for everyone, it’s not isolated to women. But you will find it harder now that businesses are trying to be 50/50 gender diverse, rather than just hiring the best person for the job.
So basically there's no place for an introvert in this industry. Gotta be an internet star, race results aren't enough anymore lol. What is inherently wrong with men? Nobody is stopping you from doing what you want in life.
I mean, the video is based on a minority, statistically, the Mountain Bike industry has a larger % of men than women. You could do the same type of video for men in the Nursing sector, and how they have to battle the stigma or men as Childcare Educators etc. Not sure why you're getting all pissy at a video aimed at encouraging woman to get into the industry lol.

I agree. People like you make it a great sport by helping everyone feel accepted:)
We are so happy to have brought this film to life. Thank you to all involved!
Beautifully made! It’s so nice to see the stories behind these awesome ladies!
Yeah Danica! and Liz! and Spencer! and Alicia! Yay! Well done!
I love this so much. Mucho points for the sparkly zeb
Excellent motivation for all women mountain bikers!!!! Love the stories of different women!
Great stories. Makes me want to go out and ride.
From the cinematography to the storytelling, beautiful film through and through. Love this!

Great Video, amazing job! Danica, Alicia, Linnea, Hannah, Keely! Congratulations!
So rad!! Love this. Stoked for you, Danica!

What a good and beautiful short film! I like it ;)
Watching this come together has been amazing. Awesome people and awesome riders!
As a man you are not allowed to comment
@@RealMTBAddict to me this seems more like inspiration to women rather than shaming of men. I like it
Loved these stories! Great to see and very inspirational. :P
Well done, Danica! 🙌 love it!
This was great!
I really enjoyed this film. I found it very relatable on many levels and just what I needed to hear right now. Thank you.
So good 😊
Loved this so much!
Love it! The essence of MTB!
Great film!

Get well Alicia!

I agree with this too! If I could go back and change the wording I would. I hope it inspires everyone- no matter what gender :)
Love this 💪💥
Well Done! Love the content. Footage of larches from angels is beautiful indeed. A truly awesome area
Great flick, thanks for making this.
Amazing
So very cool
Awesome! 🙌🙌🙌🙌
Loved it!
Amazing 🤙
Great stories! Thanks! Inspiring!
Glad Alicia has recovered since.

Good for you ❤ Always ride bikes
Fantastic! Well done!
Chapter One: "High Highs and Low Lows," she's my favourite 🥰
Great vid.
Wonderful!
Chp 3! Love seeing women in this sport! 🤙
Does anyone know how Alicia Legget's recovery is going since her brutal crash? Been waiting for some good word on PinkBike ever since I heard.
She is doing much better! Out of the hospital and making a great recovery.
@@FifeFlow Thanks for the update. You're the first one with news since I heard of her accident. Will she be back to contributing on PinkBike soon?
Amazing ❤
❤️❤️❤️

This reminds me. I need to ask Astrid to make me a corgi fender!
Womens bicycling is classy

I wouldn't go that far. I have been (and still am) a marketing professional for global brands and am an introvert.
So if a group of men made the same kind of video nobody would even watch it. They would call it sexist.

This video wasn’t made for you.
