Factory Gravel Team 2025

FACTORY TEAM STYLE – SEASON 2025

PROTECTIVE Factory Gravel Team: new team, new look, same passion

Let’s roll: with a fresh breeze, new faces and plenty of energy, the PROTECTIVE Factory Gravel Team is starting the new season!

What began last year as an ambitious challenge is now really picking up speed. Six riders, one mission: fun, authenticity and pure gravel spirit.

The crew for 2025, ready to fly through dust, gravel and mud:

Andreas Schrottenbaum
Passau / Hauzenberg

Season goal: good placings at the national, European and world championships
Strengths: endurance, long climbs

Tim Wollenberg
Sonthofen

Season goal: The Traka top 5, German Gravel Champion
Strength: determination

Luca Dressler
Augsburg

Season goal: establish himself on the gravel scene, top 5 result
Strengths: all-rounder with a fast finish, good race awareness

Lea Kremreiter
Aichen

Season goal: fun and as much success as possible
Strengths: focused, strong on the climbs

Theresa Rindler-Bachl
Salzburg

Season goal: The Traka 200k top 10, Gravel World Championships top 50
Strength: riding in the mountains

Everyone brings their own style, every knight their own wings, but it is more than just the bike. What drives it is our DNA:

We live gravel. We celebrate every ride. And we rock together damn well. Look twice, we ride loud. Our light olive jerseys with energetic pink-lime accents are anything but quiet. Our colours combine our love of nature with power and joie de vivre.

Then there is our very own signature: the PROTECTIVE bubble lettering sums up what makes us who we are: vitality, creativity, a wink and pure motivation.

Take a look. Watch us. Follow us.
We are the ones who do not pretend, and that is exactly why we stand out.

We are ready. For new races, new adventures, new paths.
Join the ride: we would love to have you along.
