Appennino Bike is a reality that, from the heart of the Apennines, lives and breathes the passion for Mountain Bike. Here, where competition intertwines with solid technical training, a project is born that renews and grows every year. Young riders are at the center of everything, capable of transforming talent into extraordinary results, and thanks to them, in 2011 the Appennino Bike project came to life, evolving over time until reaching the most important competitions in the world of enduro.

An example of this is Mirco Vendemmia, who took his first steps with Appenninobike, after standing out for his talent, he competed for important teams, but this year he will return to the AB Santa Cruz Vittoria Gravity Team to face new challenges. In 2024, Mirco confirmed himself as national champion and achieved great results in the stages of the UCI World Series EDR. Alongside him, the team includes athletes such as Daniel Tortora, Matteo Melloni, Lorenzo Scarpetti and Lorenzo Cesari, who in 2024 achieved significant results both in Italy and abroad. Their dedication is the beating heart of Appennino Bike, which aims ever higher.

Our goal is to create an environment that fosters the growth of talents, offering technical and human support to reach the highest levels. It is not just about winning, but about building a path that combines passion, determination and respect for the values ​​of sport – Fabio Gioiellieri, DS

With Appennino Bike we immediately found a great synergy, because we share fundamental values ​​such as the valorization of young talents and the passion for sport. We are enthusiastic to support them and to be at their side on this journey, convinced that together we will achieve great results. This collaboration represents a further confirmation of Vittoria's passion for the off-road and gravity world – Bruno Tecci, Global Brand and Communication Director of Vittoria

With its experience in the off-road sector, Vittoria will provide the AB Santa Cruz Vittoria Gravity Team with its entire range of enduro tires. The team will have 4 different models available: Mazza, Mostro, Martello and Mota, designed and developed to offer maximum performance in all conditions. In addition, riders will also be able to rely on the Air-Liner Enduro Protect, the specific insert to improve riding performance, protect the wheels and increase safety.
