What It Takes to Ride for Jibe
What Is a Sponsored Rider
A Jibe Sponsored Rider is part of our main crew. You carry the Jibe name when you ride and race, and we help support you and your program with solid discounts on Jibe products and brands we sell, plus support and promotion through Jibe and our partners. We help keep your bike running smooth, and you help keep Jibe out front by wearing our jerseys, running our decals, and, when it makes sense, riding a Jibe bike. You do not need to live in Salt Lake City to be sponsored; we are open to riders from anywhere.
Connection to the Jibe Brand
Sponsored riders should have a real connection to Jibe. You choose our products because you believe in them, you stay in touch with the shop and the team, and you make Jibe part of your riding story. That might mean stopping by the shop when you are in town, staying active with us on social media, and making sure Jibe shows up at the races, trails, and events you attend.
Riding Level
Sponsored riders are experienced, high-level competitors. You should be riding at the Expert, Varsity, or Pro level, with skills, speed, and race knowledge that clearly match that classification.
Proven Competitive Performance
We look for riders who consistently finish near the front of their field. Regularly placing in the top 10 percent of your category at relevant races or events shows dedication, hard work, and strong competitive ability.
Alignment with Jibe’s Core Values
Jibe is all about innovation, outdoor adventure, and community. As a sponsored rider, you should reflect those ideas in how you ride and how you live. You are excited about trying new setups and products, you spend as much time as you can outside on the bike, and you contribute to the riding communities you are part of, wherever you are based.
Professional Conduct
When you race and ride with Jibe on your kit or bike, you represent everyone behind the brand. We expect sponsored riders to be respectful, show good sportsmanship, and carry themselves with integrity both in person and online. You should be someone event organizers, other riders, and brands are glad to work with.
Riding Portfolio
When you apply, include a rider profile that covers your race and event history, notable results, and a few photos of you in action. This gives us a clear picture of your level, your style, and how you might fit into the program.
