Meet the Orbea FOX Enduro Team's Expanded Roster

The Orbea FOX team adds two new faces for 2021.

This will be the team’s fourth season in the top Enduro category, with Primoz Strancar leading the pack. “At the competitive level, we will fight to conquer all the podiums, without forgetting that we represent a sport that’s on the rise. Our performance can drive the growth of MTB,” said Strancar.

Damien Oton and Vid Persak will once again lead the team in the Enduro World Series, with the new addition of Laura Charles, one of the team’s new bets for the EWS circuit. “It’s a new challenge, and I’m certain this experience will help me improve,” said Charles. “For my part, I want to contribute to the team by qualifying for a Top 5. That would be incredible.”

 

Another new teammate we’re excited to introduce is a face you’ve met from the Pinkbike Academy. The show’s winner is 21-year-old Canadian Evan Wall, who will compete as a National Rider. “I am prepping thoroughly with training programs that help me gain confidence and improve my technique. This is the foundation for a strong season,” said Wall.

The team continues with its brand sponsors from last year, with the addition of Bluegrass helmets. “We want to acknowledge the support we’ve received from FOX and all the other partners: Race Face, Fizik, Maxxis, CrankBrothers, Galfer, One Up Components, Slicy Products, Ethen and Vaude,” said Strancar.

EWS and EWS-E 

Rallon also returns as the competition-ready bike for all team riders this season, and Wild FS will be charged up at the starting line of the EWS-E for the second year in a row.
