Partnership with the MaxSolar Cycling Team
01/30/2026
RAYMON Bicycles becomes the main sponsor of the MaxSolar RAYMON Cycling Team starting in 2026
RAYMON Bicycles and Bavaria's junior cycling team MaxSolar Cycling are entering a multi-year partnership starting in the 2026 season. With RAYMON joining as a second main sponsor, the team led by manager Heinz Kargl will compete under the name MaxSolar RAYMON Cycling Team. This collaboration represents long-term trust, shared values, and clear athletic ambitions in performance-oriented junior cycling.
As part of the partnership, the team will ride RAYMON's Kirana Ultra and Arva Ultra road bike models starting in 2026. For selected gravel races, the Soreno Ultimate will also be used. The goal of this cooperation is to showcase and further develop the performance capabilities of RAYMON's road and gravel platforms in competitive racing.
"By becoming the main sponsor, we are strengthening our presence in performance-oriented road and gravel cycling. This commitment underscores our ambition to position RAYMON as a technically strong brand with a clear athletic stance," says Felix Raymundo Puello, CEO of RAYMON Bicycles.
The MaxSolar Cycling Team was founded in 2024 with the goal of systematically guiding young, talented riders into professional cycling. By the end of its first season, one rider had already made the leap to the professional level. The team has since established itself as a key player and talent incubator in German cycling. For the 2026 season, the team will compete with 12 riders from various nations and will debut as a Continental Team.
Team manager Heinz Kargl also sees great synergies in the partnership: "RAYMON and MaxSolar both hail from Bavaria—this regional connection is a strong foundation. Personally, I have a long history with Schweinfurt cycling: back in the 1980s, I rode Winora road bikes. This deep-rooted connection now continues with RAYMON."
Athletically, the future MaxSolar RAYMON Cycling Team is looking ambitiously ahead. Following successes like winning the team classification at the Tour of Bulgaria, multiple top-ten finishes in the German Cycling League, and strong results from the U23 team, the focus from 2026 will be on making a mark at national and international races.
With this new partnership, RAYMON Bicycles and the MaxSolar Cycling Team will combine their athletic ambition and technological expertise starting in the 2026 season. The shared goal: sustainable youth development, athletic success, and a clear position in performance-oriented road and gravel cycling.
