The EF Education-EasyPost team is in full swing, fine-tuning every detail to face the upcoming World Tour season with determination. With star names like Rigoberto Urán, Esteban Chaves and Richard Carapaz among the most prominent South Americans, the U.S-based squad is ready to challenge giants like Jumbo-Visma and UAE Team Emirates.
This year's approach has been a strategic combination of experience and youth, with the aim of reaping better results after 2023 saw them crown three national road champions: Chaves (Colombia), Carapaz (Ecuador) and Ireland's Ben Healy.
However, beyond human talent, the team has bet on performance and innovation by introducing its secret weapon: the Cannondale LAB71 SuperSix EVO. This bike is not just a tool, it's a tribute to the journey a rider travels in his or her career. Designed to dominate both flat terrain and vertiginous climbs, it symbolizes the versatility and ambition of the team. The price of this precision machine is 14,999 euros.

Comparatively, as the folks at Antena 2 comment, Nairo Quintana's bike for his second stage with Movistar Team, the Canyon Ultimate CFR AXS AXS 2024, is worth €8,999. This cost difference between bikes reveals divergent strategies within the world of professional cycling.
The 2024 LAB71 SuperSix EVO for EF Pro Cycling is an homage to the winding journey of life as a pro cyclist. The road is wide, narrow, short, long, straight, and curvy, but there’s always an end, just like the finish line on race day. #ridecannondale
