The Santa Cruz Rockshox Pro XC Team

Friends call me “Esse”. I’m 20 years old, ten of which have been spent on a bike. Racing in the U23 category, in 2023 I won the Italian XCO national title and got a third place at the Lenzerheide World Cup. I’m fueled by coffee and pasta…proper italian blood.

Fun Fact: Nail polish always matching with bike stuff

My name is Brayden but my Grandma calls me Brady. I drive a Blue Subaru because that’s what you do if you live in Colorado. If I’m not riding my bike I’ll be cruising down the river, chillin’ with friends and if it’s winter you can find me begging the weather gods for it to be summer again.


Hometown: Littleton Colorado USA.

Bikes: Santa Cruz Blur

Fun Fact: I’ve never lost a game of Fortnite

I’m from Lillehammer, Norway. If I’m not out racing, I’m probably out on trails in the mountains. Every now and then, I try to squeeze in an interval session, too. 

Hometown: Lillehammer

Bike: Santa Cruz Blur

Fun fact: I can do a handstand.

I’m always on the move, sport addicted with a particular love for cycling, mountains and outdoor sports.Cycling is a passion that allows me to connect with the surrounding world and explore it. I was Junior World Champion in 2015 and my big goal now is Paris 2024.

Hometown: La Salle - Aosta

Bike: Blur | Megatower

Fun fact: Quite a sleeping lover, she’s not very fond of what comes before a coffee in the morning.

I was born in the north-east of Italy, in 1991 in a little village called Mossa. I love nature, speed and adrenaline! Riding on two wheels is my biggest passion, but not only on MTB bikes. I ride cyclocross and road bike…but sometimes I also enjoy riding my enduro motorbike. In my free (bike) time I love to relax with my girlfriend Alice, my family, my fat goat Betta and my dog Muffi. Good wine and food can never fail. 


Hometown: Mossa

Bikes: Blur | Tallboy | Heckler SL

Fun fact: I look serious but…when it comes to celebrating I am the King of the Party!

Hometown: Clauzetto, Italy

Bikes: Blur | Stigmata | Hightower

Fun fact: as a child he fell off his bike into a nettle bush, the funniest thing? He was wearing only his underwear.
