  • Ron 

Astana Pro Team officially presented their new line-up for 2017 during a November 24th press conference held at Montecatini Terme (Pistoia). The team, lead by Alexandre Vinokourov, has been in the region preparing for their next competitive season.

Along with their new uniform, Astana Pro Team also presented their new technical partners, with SIDI and Limar as headliners.

Next season Fabio Aru and company will be able to count on SHOT, the new innovative model from the SIDI road collection that is light and highly performing. These Sidi shoes will feature the Astana Pro Team colours worn by their riders during next yearā€™s season. The teamā€™s dominant uniform colour will still be Kazakhstanā€™s sky blue, but the jersey will be paired with all new black shorts. The look is elegant yet gusty, and these SHOT shoes are a perfect match. SIDI logo will also be present on the Astana Pro Team socks and shoe covers.

ā€œThis is a new partnership for SIDI, and itā€™s definitely made all the more important by a spokesman who is known for tremendous tradition in the pack and who has always guaranteed experience and professionalism. For the 2017 season the Astana Pro Team will reaffirm its place as one of the top teams of reference on the greater world cycling scene. Its ranks feature high calibre riders who can really stand out in all the events on the international calendar, from the major stage races to the one day classics. The hope is that this new partnership can bring both sides some prestigious results in terms of sports and public imageā€ explains Dino Signori, founder and owner of SIDI.

Limar will continue to support the team as their helmet supplier. Astana will be wearing both the Ultralight and 007 helmets.
