Alex and Marc Marquez, the biggest names in Grand Prix, have partnered with Mondraker in preparation for their 2021 MotoGP Season. The brothers have each been given fully customized F-podium RR carbon cross-country bikes which they plan to use for cardio training. With a paint job and decals to match Marc’s MotoGP helmet and Repsol Honda Team motorbike, Mondraker may want to consider adding a new colorway to the line.
