    Women’s team for the next 3 years apparently. Here

    So now we have clothing, that won’t get delivered on time, and will confuse people when they try to shift.

    Wonderful 🙂

    It is. I really hope this starts to lead into more big companies stepping up and then more money for the riders.

    Nice to see Hannah Barnes on the roster too.

    So its not that Hannah B, right, was wondering, but the MTB one is Joe’s sister?

    Yes. Very confusing. THis is a road team though, not mtb if I’m understanding it correctly

    Yep road team. Good to see another top level team coming into the sport and that the women are getting a World Tour.
    The women’s races can often be more exciting than the equivalent mens

    Glad we cleared that up.

    Yes a road team, being created out the ashes of the former Velocio-SRAM team.

    So one team goes and another one starts, Pro cycling was ever so.

    just to counteract the canyon bashing, my bike turned up on time. when i ordered a t-shirt and they sent me a new set of oakleys by mistake, they let me keep the oakleys and my t-shirt turned up the following week.
    YMMV

    and anything that helps womens cycling and cycling in general is a good thing 🙂

    Kristoff seems to do OK on a Canyon, so do Movistar so they can’t have complaints about the bikes.

    However poor things need to use DoubleTap shifters 😮

    We went to see the Olympic road races and this was definitely the case!

    This is the Best Thing for Womens cycling, like Eva.

    Thank God Rapha made the right commitment, this can only be a Very Good Thing for Womens Cycling and cycling in general.

    Perfect match.

    Nice kit.

    Sure I read somewhere Rapha were doing this instead of Sky, but see they’ve recently announced the new Sky kit too.

    I’d assume they’d be on eTap.

    It’s the last year with sky – they announced they weren’t carrying on after 2016

    looks a great kit, they seem to have a good bunch of sponsors, the best gears and kit and canyon’s aren’t bad either!

    Cool that they seeming to be getting equal equipment billing.

    Anybody tried eTap yet?

    I’m very tempted for getting wireless shifting on the TT bike avoiding the external routing mess. Though the blip box thing is ugly.

    That kit is foul. Very late 80’s or early 90’s. Maybe the Lidls designer has moved to Rapha?
