Endura has announced that renowned German sprinter and ex-pro Marcel Kittel will join as a brand ambassador. Kittel will bring a wealth of riding and race-winning insight and feedback that Endura will be able to utilise when developing its Pro SL, FS260-Pro and now-UCI-banned D2Z range.

Kittel retired from professional racing back in August 2019 stating that the overwhelming pressure and constant travel was taking its toll on his quality of life. At the end of 2019, Endura announced its departure from the WorldTour, citing the limitations on technology enforced by the UCI as the reasoning behind finishing a successful partnership with Movistar.

Graham has been part of the Cyclingnews team since January 2020. He has mountain biking at his core and can mostly be found bikepacking around Scotland or exploring the steep trails around the Tweed Valley. Not afraid of a challenge, Graham has gained a reputation for riding fixed gear bikes both too far and often in inappropriate places.
