Raúl Fernández joins AURUM: MotoGP meets high-performance cycling
MotoGP rider Raúl Fernández has joined AURUM Bikes as a new brand ambassador, strengthening the natural connection between elite motorsport and high-performance cycling.
The presentation took place at DogDays Cycling Club in Madrid, where Raúl received his new AURUM ESSENTIA, equipped with SRAM Force and Scope R4 wheels.
The Spanish rider joins the AURUM family following a spectacular start to the MotoGP season, achieving a P3 podium in the opening race of the year in Thailand, confirming his strong form at the beginning of the championship.
Cycling and MotoGP: a natural performance connection
Cycling has long been one of the most important training tools for MotoGP riders. The bicycle allows riders to develop endurance, aerobic capacity and mental resilience throughout an extremely demanding global racing calendar.
For this reason, many professional riders incorporate cycling into their daily preparation when they are not competing on track.
With the arrival of Raúl Fernández, AURUM now works with three riders from the MotoGP paddock, including:
-
- Alonso López (Moto2)
-
- Fermín Aldeguer (MotoGP)
-
- Raúl Fernández (MotoGP)
All of them train with the AURUM ESSENTIA, a bike designed to deliver performance, precision and reliability at the highest level.
Raúl Fernández: “It’s an honour to join the AURUM family”
Speaking about the partnership, Raúl Fernández expressed his excitement about joining the brand:
“I’m very grateful to the whole AURUM team for giving me the opportunity to join this family. For me it’s really special to ride a bike that has been developed and tested by Alberto Contador and Ivan Basso, two legends of cycling.”
The MotoGP rider also highlighted how important cycling is in his preparation:
“The bike is a key part of my training. It helps me build endurance and stay in shape throughout the season. I hope this is the beginning of a long and beautiful relationship with AURUM.”
