Hola!

I'm the US correspondent for three magazines (see below). I live in Santa Cruz, California, but most of my articles are published in Spain and read both in Spain and Latin America

I'm preparing an article on female specific gear, discussing, among other topics, whether all the women's MTB gear that is put out is really helpful to women or a mere fashion / marketing tool. Or inversely, if there are needs for specific gear that you think have not been addressed properly by the industry.

I was wondering if you have any good and bad stories to share and some input regarding for which components female specific design is really important.

Any other personal view or input would be appreciated.

Thanks!!

Manuel
