A Stronger Second Year, Bigger Ambitions<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

After a successful debut season in 2025,\u00a0Elitewheels<\/a> renews its support for the team as it targets a potential Grand Tour future. Alongside Elitewheels<\/a>‘ wheel sponsorship, evolve<\/a><\/b> joins with its flagship CIMA performance road frameset<\/b>, co-branded with its Panama<\/span> distributor Rali.<\/p>\n

The 2025 season proved the partnership’s competitive value. Racing on Elitewheels<\/a>‘ Drive<\/b>, Drive Helix<\/b> SS and Velo TT wheelsets<\/a>, the team delivered podiums, stage wins, and GC victories at events including the Tour of Slovenia<\/span> and Tour of Hainan<\/span>, while also making strong appearances at WorldTour races such as Strade Bianche, Milano\u2013Sanremo, UAE Tour and Copenhagen Sprint.<\/p>\n

“Our first year with Elitewheels<\/a>\u00a0exceeded expectations,” said Team Manager Serge. “The wheels delivered confidence everywhere, from crosswinds to full-gas sprints.” Seven-time champion sprinter Du\u0161an Rajovi\u0107<\/b> echoed this sentiment, praising both stiffness and speed.<\/p>\n

Precision Equipment for 2026<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

In 2026,Team Solution Tech \u2013\u00a0NIPPO \u2013 Rali will race on three Elitewheels<\/a>\u00a0flagship models:<\/p>\n

Drive II<\/b>: an all-round race wheel refined through CFD and Silverstone wind tunnel testing, saving ~5 watts compared to its predecessor.<\/p>\n

Drive Helix CS<\/b>: a premium all-rounder with helical airflow design, offering exceptional crosswind stability and precise stiffness.<\/p>\n

Drive TT<\/b>: a dedicated time-trial wheelset validated at Silverstone, optimized for sustained high-speed efficiency.<\/p>\n

This equipment selection reflects Elitewheels<\/a>‘ commitment to engineering refinement under real race pressure.<\/p>\n

Alongside the ProTeam, the partnership also extends to Toscana Factory Devo Team<\/b>, the official development squad of Solution Tech \u2013 NIPPO \u2013 Rali. The Devo Team will compete on Elitewheels<\/a> Drive series <\/b>and Rali\u2013evolve co-branded CIMA framesets,<\/b>\u00a0ensuring young riders progress on the same high-performance equipment philosophy as the ProTeam.<\/p>\n

evolve<\/a> Steps Forward with CIMA<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

evolve<\/b><\/a> brings its high-performance CIMA frameset<\/b> to the partnership for 2026. Built with TORAY T1100, T800, and M40 carbon<\/b>, the unpainted M-size frame weighs just 650g<\/b>, balancing ultra-lightweight construction with race-level stiffness. Wind tunnel testing at Silverstone showed that the CIMA combined with KREUZA aerodynamic accessories saves 4.1 watts on average<\/b>, translating to nearly 48 seconds over 40 km at 300W<\/b>.<\/p>\n

Looking Ahead<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

More than a sponsorship, this partnership is a technology-driven collaboration. Engineers, riders, and mechanics work closely to refine aerodynamics, stiffness, and efficiency throughout the season.<\/p>\n

Together, they represent a clear message: global cycling performance is evolving, and China’s<\/span> engineering presence is now firmly part of the sport’s top tier.<\/p>\n
