CUBE Actionteam – New rider announcement for 2023
The CUBE Actionteam signs Nathan Secondi on a two-year contract. French born with Corsican roots, Nathan joins Veronika Sepp, Hanna Steinthaler, Jonas Goeweil and Gusti Wildhaber to complete the team line-up for 2023. With the entry of Warner Bros. Discovery as media partner, and the integration of the former Enduro World Series into the UCI’s racing calendar as the Enduro World Cup, the new and bigger platform is set to propel the growing sport of enduro to new heights.
“With one of the best-known enduro pro teams in the world, I get the support I've always dreamt of. Thanks to CUBE’s innovative full-suspension technology, I always have the right bike to be one of the fastest guys on any track in any terrain. I’ll be leaving for my first training camp with the rest of the team in a few days, and I can’t wait!”, says the 23-year-old.
After the team training camp, Nathan Secondi heads off to the Australian island of Tasmania to line up for the first two rounds of the UCI Mountain Bike Enduro World Cup. He and his team mates will follow this up with race stops in Leogang (Austria), Canazei (Italy) and Finale Ligure (Italy).
“Nathan is an incredibly fast rider with a big future in enduro. With the TV coverage this season the attention will be firmly on him and all of our team riders. Nathan’s skills are the perfect match for enduro’s fast and techy tracks, and he’s sure to have some valuable tips up his sleeve for the rest of the team!”, says team manager Claus Wachsmann.
The rest of the Actionteam pilots also have clear goals for the coming season: After taking the victory at the Trophy of Nations with Team Deutschland, Veronika Sepp is now eager to prove her mettle at the Enduro World Cup. Austrian national enduro champ Hanna Steinthaler is set to make 2023 her international break-out season. Jonas Goeweil is on a comeback mission with plans to bring home some top results following an extended period of injury, while long-standing Actionteam rider Gusti Wildhaber is keen to return to form after also being off with injury. Together with new team mate Nathan, the athletes are gearing up for their first team camp of the season.
