Team BikeExchange - Jayco have secured all their three leaders - Simon Yates, Michael Matthews and Dylan Groenewegen - for the upcoming seasons, and on the first day of the transfer season they have announced the signing of Eddie Dunbar who's joining the team on a three-year deal.
Team manager Brent Copeland was keen on pointing out the Irishman's talents, and how the team's profile will make him a strong asset whilst also giving him the freedom to lead. “It is really exciting for us to be bringing on such a talented, young but experienced rider on to the team and this year," Copeland said in the press release. "Eddie has had a really strong season. We have watched him step up a level and we believe he will fit into our team very well and play a huge role in strengthening our squad in stage races".
The 25-year old has won the Settimana Ciclista Coppi e Bartali and the Tour de Hongrie this year, however has not found the freedom he hoped for despite his evolution at INEOS Grenadiers. The addition of other uprising talents sees Dunbar in a complicated situation, and he will be moving to a team that can give him the opportunity to show his worth at World Tour level and in the Grand Tours.
Dunbar himself has said that "I have high hopes to add to an already great and successful team, as shown with their performances this year, with stage wins in both the Giro d’Italia and the Tour de France. I can’t wait to see what’s in store for me". The three-year collaboration will begin in 2023, where the Australian team has hopes of remaining in the World Tour.
