Felipe Orts returns to Gsport with his project, Forts Team.
The Villajoyosa cyclist Felipe Orts, recently crowned Spanish Cyclocross Champion for the sixth time, returns to the team that was his home for many years.
It's an honor to announce that Felipe Orts is returning to Gsport. We've supported him and watched him grow since the beginning... and now, in 2024, he's coming back to delight us with his personal project Forts Team.
Felipe will face the 2024 season with a unique calendar. In the winter, he will compete in his star discipline, cyclocross, and for the rest of the year, he will focus on his favorite discipline, Olympic MTB (Cross-Country).
«FORTS is a project that starts from scratch, something very personal to us. That's why we wanted to show our gratitude to those brands that always supported Felipe Orts. In the case of Gsport, two circumstances come together: they are a reference as manufacturers of cycling clothing worldwide, and they were also the brand that supported Felipe Orts the most when he was taking his first steps. That's why, now that we are competing with the best in the world, it made perfect sense to come back home," commented the management of FORTS TEAM.
An agreement that will last for a long time as we both share Valencian origins and, moreover, we are united by similar values and the same international projection.
«We have always believed that growing implies reaching the world elite. Years ago, when nobody supported cyclocross, Gsport always had the door open for Felipe, they saw his potential from the beginning. Now that media attention is maximum, we wanted to share this recognition with them,» FORTS Team.
«Furthermore, another of the main reasons for this collaboration agreement with Gsport are the advantages they offer us as manufacturers. By making their own clothing and not relying on third parties, we have much more ease in having the best patterns, fabrics, pads... and having cycling clothing perfect for competing at the highest level in cyclocross, MTB, and gravel. Gsport has the production capacity to support us in all kinds of disciplines with specific garments for each competition,» FORTS Team.
Grateful for their trust, the entire Gsport team is very excited to accompany Felipe Orts on this great adventure, with and without mud.
«Returning to Gsport is like coming home. I would like to continue growing together, hand in hand, as we have been doing until now. Both of us have increased the quality in these years compared to when we started working together,» Felipe Orts tells us.
