SportBike Chic, LLC is a women’s motorcycle apparel company I founded in 2016 — born directly from my own experience as a rider searching for protective gear that not only fit but felt good to wear. After years of riding, searching, and coming up short, I built what I couldn’t find: a line of protective apparel that combines safety, style, and fit for women who ride.
We started with jeans and the TankPurse™ — two products that remain the foundation of the brand. The development process wasn’t overnight. It took over three years of back-and-forth with manufacturers to perfect the fit, sourcing 100% DuPont™ Kevlar® lining and CE-level protection for real-world riders. During that time, we also brought the TankPurse® from concept to prototype to patent, introducing a stylish female-focused alternative to the traditional tank bag.
Since then, SportBike Chic® has grown from small local events to national stages like AIMExpo in Columbus and the International Motorcycle Shows in New York and Los Angeles. Along the way, I’ve applied my background in operations and business excellence to build not only a product but a sustainable business — using data, KPIs, and process discipline to fuel growth.
At the heart of SportBike Chic® is passion — for riding, for innovation, and for empowering women to ride with confidence, knowing they have gear designed intentionally for them. Our bodies aren’t one-size-fits-all — and neither is safety. SportBike Chic® exists to help fill that gap.
This is my way of contributing — one mile, one product, one rider at a time.
