Marin Stans Racing Sponsorship

Maxxis UK has confirmed that it is to be the exclusive tyre brand sponsor to the Marin Stans Racing Team during 2016 and 2017. The deal will see all riders equipped with a selection of the latest tyre innovations from Maxxis, along with vivid branding on kit and clothing.

Recently back from an impressive start to the 2016 season at The Enduro Fun Festival in Madrid, and an adrenalin-fuelled performance at the opener of the British Enduro Series at Scotland’s Ae Forest over the Easter weekend, team Marin Stans Racing are paving the way for an exciting season ahead.

The newly formed team comprises of five riders, including world riders Rob Williams and Chris Keeble and British riders Leigh Johnson, Martha Gill and Nikki Whiles, who will each compete at the Enduro World Series and British Enduro Series and ride exclusively on Maxxis tyres over the next two years. Commenting on the significance of the deal, John Oldale, a spokesperson for Marin Stans Racing Team, said: “The team are thrilled to have a brand like Maxxis on board as sponsor. Maxxis has dominated the mountain biking scene for decades and is already the go-to tyre brand for many of the riders in the team. The partnership with Maxxis will give all competitors access to a wide range of high-performance tyres and, thanks to the quality of the Maxxis mountain bike tyre range, offer the riders confidence to perform to the very best of their ability, regardless of the terrain or weather conditions.”

In addition to full product sponsorship of Marin Stans Racing Team, Maxxis will secure brand exposure at all Enduro World Series and British Enduro Series events throughout this year and next. Maxxis managing director, Derek McMartin, believes the latest in a string of mountain bike sponsorship announcements will firmly place Maxxis back on the map for the sport as he explains: “Maxxis has a well-established history with the mountain biking community and has helped many competitive riders and hobbyists alike achieve a new edge on their riding performance.

“It’s great to welcome the Marin Stans Racing Team to the Maxxis family who, alongside our other partners in mountain biking, will propel our brand forwards and help us to showcase our market-leading tyre designs to a captive audience. Marin Stans has already kicked off their season in style and we’re all incredibly excited to see how the rest of the season shapes up.”

Team Marin will be provided with a range of Maxxis mountain bike tyres including, Minions, Shortys, High Roller II and Ardents.
