Mitch Ropelato and Kera Linn Join the Cannondale Mountain Team 8

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 on this email thread that Mitch needs no intro. We’re beyond stoked to have these 2 join us! STACKED.

“I’m super excited to be a part of Cannondale as its heritage runs deep in the mountain bike world, and a lot of great athletes I looked up to rode for Cannondale. My goal for this year is to suck less than I sucked the year before.” - Mitch Ropelato

“I’m excited to be a part of a brand that makes amazing bikes and has so many of the top athletes, in different disciplines. I look forward to rep’ing Cannondale in 2021 and kitting up to race the global enduro scene.” - Kera Linn

"If it ain’t fun, it’s probably not worth doing it. So, naturally we felt if we are going to elevate Cannondale in the enduro scene we should add two riders who are going to have as much fun as we do. We could say so many great things about Kera and Mitch joining the Cannondale family, but we’ll just let their smiles share their good times approach to the sport and let their riding do the talking." - Travis Tomczak (Cannondale Global Marketing Manager, Mountain)
