Levy Batista
Born in Nancy in the east of France, from a young age Levy developed a persistent passion for extreme sports. A motocross rider since the age of 3, he traveled across Europe with his parents to compete against the world's best riders.
As French National MX1 Champion in 2014 and 14th in the MX3 World Championship in 2012, it was at the end of 2015, while pursuing a PhD in signal processing, that Levy decided to end his motocross career and explore a new discipline to enduro mountain biking.
After two initial seasons, Levy finished second in the French Enduro Mountain Biking Cup in 2018, his first season riding a Rocky Mountain: the Slayer.
Unfazed by the extra kilograms of an eBike, in 2020, Levy quickly mastered the brand's PowerPlay to achieve several top 10 finishes in the World Cup.
Now the father of a 4-year-old daughter, professionally independent with his applied mathematics consulting company, with two titles as winner of the French eBike Cup, Levy plans to continue his quest for performance in 2024 as part of the Rocky Mountain Gravity team.
