Hector Barbera
Motorsports | January 20, 2012
Spanish MotoGP rider Hector Barbera has joined Specialized and will be using their bicycles and equipment for training during the 2012 season.
The delivery of the bike was at Cult Bikes, a Specialized Partner Shop in Valencia, where Carlos Cevero and Maria Sanchez showed Barbera one of the few S-Works McLaren Venge in Spain, with Barbera posing for photos. He received a S-Works Venge road bike and an S-Works Epic mountain, with which we have already seen him training on through Twitter.
In addition to riding the Venge and the Epic, Barbera will wear the S-Works Prevail helmet,
S-Works road shoes and S-Works MTB shoes.
Barbera rides for the Pramac Racing team, led by Carlo Pernat. This will be his third year of riding a Ducati, and the Italian marque is busy preparing a competitive bike this season as MotoGP returns to the displacement of 1,000 cc. The team aim is to be among the top six in MotoGP.
The cycling training will provide the necessary fitness to race in the premiere class for MotoGP and we hope to see Barbera with his "S'" on his helmet, on the podium.
