What is Crown Gravity Collective?

At Crown, our mission is to inspire hard work, dedication, and good judgement through mountain biking.

Crown Gravity Collective was founded in 2021, born out of a desire to bring the Flathead Valley’s talented young mountain bikers together. We are Northwest Montana’s largest competitive downhill, enduro, freeride and freestyle mountain bike team.

BEYOND THE PODIUM…

Crown Gravity Collective goes beyond the podium, as we strive to not only create better bike riders and racers, but also positive representatives of our sport and stewards of the lands we recreate on. We promote active participation in the local biking community and teach proper trail etiquette and safety.
