Product news: WorldTour team bikes 2019 – This is how the pros ride!

14 January 2019 by Florian Nowak

Product News: How is the WorldTour 2019 driving? In the last few weeks and months, not only has a lot happened on the driver market, but the sponsors have also had to undergo a veritable transfer carousel this year. You can find out who will be on which wheels in 2019 here.

AG2R La Mondiale

There is a lot that is new at AG2R. The French change from Factor Bikes to Eddy Merckx and shift with the new Campagnolo 12-speed. They also rely on Rotor's power meter cranks.

Team Astana

At Astana there are hardly any changes in terms of material. You stay on Argon 18 wheels and Corima wheels. The components remain true to Shimano and FSA cranks.

Bahrain Merida Pro Cycling Team

With Bahrain-Merida, we already have the bike manufacturer in the name. Not much will change here either. The Merida Aerobike was already shown as a disc version at the team presentation. Shimano gears, SRM power meter and Fulcrum wheels complete the work equipment of the Bahrain pros.

BORA - hansgrohe 

Of course, superstar Peter Sagan has his own model again. Otherwise, not much will change for the guys from the German professional team. Specialized is again offering Tarmac and Venge with Shimano and their own Roval wheels. For the classics, the Specialized Roubaix should also be seen from time to time.

CCC Team

Completely new to the WorldTour and still have an old acquaintance on board is the CCC Team, which has taken over the license from BMC Racing, but gets the bikes from Team Sunweb with Giant. With complete Shimano equipment, you don't miss a beat and stay true to the Giant basic equipment.

Deceuninck - Quick Step

A few things are changing in Deceuninck – Quick Step. Both the name and some drivers change, but not the wheels. With Specialized you have a loyal partner at your side and you can rely on the same material as in 2018.

EF Education First Pro Cycling Team 

Inspired by the new Rapha jerseys, the Cannondale racing machines were also designed. For many, the play of colors is already the visual highlight of the year. Disc brakes, Shimano gears, Vision wheels - all the familiar features of the EF Education First Pro Cycling team.

Groupama - FDJ 

The French from Groupama-FDJ were only able to win their second name sponsor last year. This year things will be quieter and little will change. The material also remains the same and continues to come from Lapierre and Shimano.

Lotto Soudal 

The biggest innovation in terms of equipment at Lotto Soudal is the new Campagnolo group. Otherwise, they continue to rely on Ridley bikes.

Mitchelton-Scott 

Here, too, the outfitter is already in the name. Of course, Mitchelton Scott doesn't change much when it comes to bikes either.

Movistar Team 

With the Movistar team, little or nothing will change in terms of both the supplier and the design. The only eye-catcher is Alejandro Valverde's world champion bike. Otherwise you stick with light blue Canyon bikes with Campagnolo groupsets.

Team Dimension Data 

The next entrant in the transfer carousel is Dimension Data. The South Africans gave Cervelo to Sunweb and got a Swiss BMC with Enve wheels, Rotor power meter and Shimano Di2 in return.

Team Jumbo-Visma 

A new sponsor is also on board at Jumbo Visma. However, the outfitters remain largely the same. So you can continue to count on the support of Bianchi.

Team Katusha-Alpecin

TeamSky 

Last round for Team Sky after the main sponsor will withdraw at the end of the year. The farewell tour will be tackled again on the familiar Pinarello racers.

Team Sunweb 

Cervelo S5
Cervelo R5

The last participant in the exchange triangle. With the Dimension Data Cervelos, Tom Dumoulin and colleagues should be put back on the road to success. The Shimano equipment remains familiar.

Trek-Segafredo

Of course, the bike sponsor does not change for Team Trek. However, with SRAM there is a new supplier of components. A closer look reveals that you are already on the road with the new 12-speed group.

UAE team Emirates

Also in UAE there is no big news. With Colnago and Campagnolo you start the 2019 season and stay loyal to old partners.

 

We will continue to update the list as new information and pictures of the 2019 team bikes become available!
