The Andorra Epic Series once again proved why it is considered one of the most demanding MTB stage races on the international calendar. Four days of high mountains, technical trails and thousands of metres of elevation gain, where only the strongest teams are able to make the difference. The teams supported by ISB Sport delivered an outstanding performance, returning from Andorra with one victory and two second-place finishes that reflect the hard work, preparation and commitment of all the riders.
The biggest success came in the women’s classification, where the Massi ISB team, made up of Mónica Calderón and Costanza Fasolis, claimed the overall title at the Andorra Epic Series after a flawless race. Their consistency, teamwork and strength throughout every stage earned them the top step of the podium. The women’s podium was completed by the Metallurgica Veneta team, featuring Chrystelle and Maria, who secured an excellent second place after delivering a very solid performance and demonstrating an outstanding level throughout the four days of racing.
In the men’s category, the Klimatiza Team, with David Valero and Samuele Porro, claimed a brilliant second place in the overall standings. The experience of both riders and their outstanding performance on such a technical and demanding course allowed them to fight for victory until the very end, achieving a result of enormous prestige.
In a competition where every climb, every descent and every kilometre put both the rider and the bike to the test, mechanical reliability makes all the difference. At ISB SPORT, we continue to develop bearings engineered to perform at their best in the most extreme conditions, delivering the smoothness, efficiency and durability required by the world’s top teams.
We would like to congratulate Mónica Calderón, Costanza Fasolis, Chrystelle, Maria, David Valero, Samuele Porro and all the members of Massi ISB, Metallurgica Veneta and Klimatiza Team for representing the ISB SPORT colours with outstanding performances throughout the Andorra Epic Series. One victory and two podium finishes that reaffirm our commitment to top-level MTB. We keep rolling alongside those who compete to stay at the front.
In races such as the Andorra Epic, where bikes are constantly subjected to heavy loads, torsion, impacts and external contamination, suspension bearings must withstand stresses that are very different from those found in conventional applications. That is precisely why ISB SPORT developed the VMAX range.
✅ Specifically designed for suspension / pivot applications
✅ Higher load capacity
✅ Specially engineered for this application
✅ Increased strength and longer service life
