INEOS Grenadiers has officially confirmed the renewal of its partnership with Pinarello, extending for three more years one of the most successful and long-lived partnerships in the world of professional cycling. Since the team's founding in 2010 (then under the name Team Sky), Pinarello has not simply been a bike supplier, but a true strategic partner in the development of high-performance technology.
For more than 15 years, this partnership has been synonymous with innovation, precision and historic victories. Together, INEOS Grenadiers and Pinarello have conquered multiple Grand Tours, World Championships and Hour Records, pushing engineering and design to the limit in every competition, whether road, mountain or cyclocross.
Sir Dave Brailsford, sport director of INEOS Grenadiers, expressed his enthusiasm for this renewal: "Pinarello has been part of our story from day one. What defines this relationship is genuine collaboration and a shared belief that technology, elite performance and attention to detail can achieve extraordinary things."
Brailsford also highlighted the role of Pinarello president Fausto Pinarello and his team, recognizing the influence of his legacy and passion for cycling in the development of bicycles that have revolutionized the sport.
Pinarello's words
From Treviso, the president of the iconic Italian brand also welcomed the continuation of this synergy that has generated some of the most memorable moments in modern cycling: "I am delighted that our partnership will continue. With INEOS Grenadiers we have achieved incredible things: world titles, records, and successes in all kinds of disciplines. This collaboration feels completely natural because we share the same ambition to win."

In addition, Pinarello stressed that the bond between the two entities transcends simple sponsorship. The relationship is based on mutual trust, the constant exchange of ideas and an open mind to new technologies and materials that keep the team at the forefront of performance.

- But on what is that opinion based? Are you holding him to a different standard than others? Are you saying he should do learn to like something he doesn’t Are you saying he hasn’t achieved enough Are you saying he pretends to be better than his results? It’s actually a really strange opinion to oust if you consider it objectively or rationally. Try applying it to others or yourself by asking if not EVERYONE should then be doing more? Nobody in athletics or swimming gets criticism for not expanding their repertoire when a rival or someone else does. In fact, most who move to another event get accused of running from their rival. Opinions are boring, the reasons behind them are what count.Jumpyjohn07-11-2026

- any rider less than 25 whether they are really ready for the position of leadership of GT is probably not the case. I think Pogi himself suffered when he was defeated by Jonas in the TDF twice. But that would be the team's job to ensure support so that they can bounce back. It requires a team and time to get back up and win after getting knocked down.abstractengineer07-11-2026
