A “volcanic” AURUM MAGMA by Lechler for Team Polti VisitMalta at the Giro

For a special event, a special outfit is needed. At the 2025 Giro d’Italia, the AURUM MAGMA bikes of Team Polti VisitMalta will feature a color scheme that perfectly matches their name: a bright, volcanic combination blending red and black tones created specifically within Lechler’s Colour Project. The eight selected riders will enjoy the same excellence as always — enhanced by an exclusive chromatic touch!

The painting process is entirely handcrafted: each frame was individually painted and underwent a lengthy process to achieve the desired magmatic finish. These bikes will also be available for purchase (without the sponsor logos) either in any MAGMA build or in a frame+cockpit configuration, exclusively through official AURUM retailers and distributors for orders placed between May 9 and June 1 — throughout the duration of the Giro.

Aritz Azkarraga, General Manager of AURUM:
“For a young brand like ours, being at the Giro d’Italia alongside the Fundación Alberto Contador’s project is a major milestone. We want to highlight the value this represents for us with a special edition of our top-of-the-line bike, the AURUM MAGMA — a true source of pride. We love the idea that everyone can admire it and feel it just as we do, and that it gives Team Polti VisitMalta an extra boost to raise their arms in victory once again!”

Maurizio Bazzoni, Head of the Colour Lab at Lechler:
“The glow of red melting into cold black to evoke volcanic MAGMA — symbolizing strength for climbers, explosiveness for sprinters and endurance for rouleurs; a perfect metaphor to encourage our riders in every race, reminding them that you can’t tell a volcano when or how to erupt!”
