Zakarias Johansen

31-year-old Zakarias Johansen returns to the Cube Actionteam jersey after two years withnow defunct Ibis Enduro Team, while 19-year-old Frederik Matz is climbing the professional world with the support of the German brand.

I'm excited to be back with the Cube Actionteam! Cube is an incredibly passionate brand about racing and always pushes the limits as far as possible. For me, this is exactly what I need to run at this level. Becoming a dad last year completely changed my life. It showed me how important it is to have people around you who you feel like and trust and who support you to continue racing at the highest level. Claus, Gusti and I have known each other for a long time and I can't wait to see what we can accomplish as a team! – Zakarias Johansen

All four riders will go to their first training camp together in February to prepare for the racing season.

[email protected] I am a fan of everything that has 2 wheels: at a young age I practiced road and track cycling (Italian Allievi champion). At the age of 18 I passed into the cross country competing at national/international level as an Under23. Past Elite, I made the choice to take things more lightly from a training point of view, and my love for gravity disciplines was born, training me as an FCI MTB instructor and guide. Now I have made passion my profession by managing 2 MTB centers on the island of Elba (Bike Center Elba and Elba MTB), creating the FANTAmtb and telling in an ironic but professional way everything that revolves around MTB thanks to 365mountainbike and 365TV (YouTube'PULITI dentro BIKER fuori').
