Campagnolo is proud to announce the continuation of its Tour de France-winning partnership with Colnago, supplying the UAE Team Emirates UCI WorldTour team throughout the 2021 racing season. 

The world’s first UAE cycling team will ride with Campagnolo’s Super Record EPS disc brake groupset fitted to the Colnago V3RS.

UAE Emirates riders will also benefit from Campagnolo’s full range of Bora WTO and Bora Ultra wheels, reuniting the same all-Italian frameset, drivetrain and wheelset package that took Tadej Pogačar to his emphatic 2020 Tour de France victory.

This latest development means that Campagnolo can now confirm a trio of partnerships with leading WorldTour cycling teams, having already announced its contract extension with Ridley and Lotto Soudal alongside its collaboration with BMC who are set to supply AG2R Citroën Team for 2021.

“We’re pleased to announce another contract extension with UAE Emirates - a team with whom we have developed an excellent relationship over the years,” said Campagnolo Marketing Manager Nicolò Ildos. 

“2020 was a special year for the team, and for Campagnolo. It brings us real pride to say that Campagnolo played a part in Tadej Pogačar’s thrilling Tour de France victory. Tadej’s yellow Colnago, with a Super Record EPS groupset and Bora wheels is now part of our company’s history.

“Racing is so important to us all, as we know it is to Colnago and all our partner manufacturers, so we’ll be watching the 2021 season very closely and with great excitement!”

“We’re excited to extend our partnership with Campagnolo for 2021,” added Colnago Executive Vice-Chairwoman Melissa Moncada. “At Colnago, we strive to create the best bikes for the best riders. Choosing Campagnolo for the V3RS is integral to this. Tadej Pogačar’s Tour de France win last season was a source of great joy for the company and we look forward to the new season with UAE Team Emirates.”
