Speaking about his new venture, Carl said that he has been very close to the Clews family for many years, and it seemed like a logical step to assume the role of brand ambassador for CCM. Foggy spoke about the importance of supporting a British manufacturer and said that CCM was close to his heart. He also added that he was a big fan of the limited edition Spitfire model, which he described as a bike that you can take to straight from the track to a coffee shop. The design reflects his personality and style, as well as the heritage of the brand.
Managing director, Austin Clews, was full of praise for his new brand ambassador and said that the future looks bright for CCM, as it takes a turn towards road biking and attempts to conquer emerging overseas markets.
Moving forward, Fogarty will be a visible presence at shows and events, and he is also hoping to use his platform to introduce CCM to a wider international audience.
