PRESS RELEASE: rasoulution

Coming from Sweden, a country with a rich history of developing MTB riders like Emil Johansson, Max Fredriksson and Martin Söderström, 19-year-old Alma Wiggberg is joining to top ranks of the sport in 2022. Alma from Södertälje, has now officially joined the global Specialized Bicycles program, and with a long-term commitment from the Californian based brand.

Alma has made a name for herself as a sendy freerider and already has two wins at the Swedish National Championships to her name in Pumptrack and Enduro. Last summer she was part of the amazing women's event at Audi Nines and recently finished second at the Zurich Dirt Contest.

Alma will be joining teammates such as Chelsea L. Kimball, who has also recently joined the Specialized.
