Date Jan 19, 2021

It's that time of the year when athletes are doing their dance of contract musical chairs. The latest moves are noted Crankworx King Mitch Ropelato and up-and-coming breakout star Kera Linn joining Cannondale's Mountain Team. Check out the press release below for more.

So, we are getting rowdy on the Cannondale Mountain team in 2021. Top 20 EWS and 2-time King of Crankworx Mitch Ropelato and Pro GRT breakout star and National Enduro contender Kera Linn are the two new faces of the Cannondale Mountain family. Kera turned heads with top wins in 2020 when she wasn’t ripping around her epic home trails in Utah. In 2021, she has her eyes set on the EWS. As one of our favorites on the scene today, we all know that Mitch needs no intro. We’re beyond stoked to have these 2 join us! STACKED
