CUBE Actionteam – New riders for 2024

The CUBE Actionteam signs Swedish rider Zakarias Johansen and Germany’s Frederik Matz for the coming season.

New father Johansen is back in the Actionteam jersey after two years away. 19-year-old Frederik Matz is set to step up to pro level with the support of the team. They both join Austrian Jonas Goeweil and Swissman Gusti Wildhaber to round out the Actionteam squad for 2024. All four will be competing at the UCI Enduro World Cup Series. Supporting talented young enduro riders on the development path remains a key focus with the CUBE Actionrookie programme as well as media adventure trips both for and with joint partners.

“I’m stoked to be back with the CUBE Actionteam! CUBE are a brand who are incredibly passionate about racing and are always pushing the limits as far as possible. For me, that is exactly what you need to race 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 vibe with and trust, and who support you to keep racing at the highest level. Claus, Gusti and I go way back and I can't wait to see what we can accomplish as a team!” says the 31-year-old Swede.

“I’m so happy that Zakarias is back on the team. We were already blown away by his incredible performance during his first stint with us. Today he is one of the best enduro athletes in the world and we are delighted to have him back on board. You will see us at all of the 2024 Enduro World Cups with Zakarias as our principal rider, where we aim to achieve as many top results as possible. Welcome back to the CUBE family, Zakarias!” says team manager Claus Wachsmann.

All four riders will head out to their first training camp together in February to prepare for the race season. After getting into the race action with some early-season competitions, the Actionteam athletes will turn their attention to the UCI Enduro World Cup Series.
