ReiseMoto has announced a collaboration with off-road motorcyclist, CS Santosh, marking a step in the brand’s mission to elevate Indian performance products on the global racing stage. The partnership brings together Santosh’s rally-raid experience and ReiseMoto’s expanding ambition in high-performance tyre development.
CS Santosh, the first Indian to complete the Dakar Rally, joins ReiseMoto as a Strategic Collaborator, contributing his technical expertise to the brand’s R&D efforts. His involvement will play a central role in shaping the next generation of Reise’s off-road tyre portfolio, including the upcoming torqR 02 Dakar variant. The tyres will undergo rigorous evaluation across international rally events, including multiple rounds of the World Rally Raid Championship and the FIM Bajas World Cup starting January 2026, subject to team decisions and testing approvals.
Yogesh Mahansaria, Founder & Managing Director of ReiseMoto, said the alliance strengthens the brand’s commitment to performance-first engineering. He praised Santosh for embodying perseverance, discipline and passion—qualities that define the Reise ethos.
Santosh called the collaboration a shared journey rooted in resilience and a deep love for motorcycling, adding that the association aims to inspire more riders to experience the joy and purpose behind every ride.
The partnership comes at a pivotal moment in Santosh’s career, as he prepares for a renewed push into global competition. ReiseMoto will support his comeback, while Santosh will help introduce the brand’s tyres to European and international racing circuits, highlighting the growing capabilities of Indian engineering on the world stage.
ReiseMoto, backed by the Mahansaria Group and European brand Mitas, has rapidly built a wide-ranging product line, strong retail network and an expanding presence in India’s riding community. The company also supports athletes such as Harith Noah and competes as Reise torqRacers in the Indian Supercross Racing League.
