canyon and movistarCanyon to sponsor Movistar team next year
Spanish professional cycling team Movistar will switch from Pinarello to Canyon bikes in 2014, in a move that sees the German manufacturer increasing its presence in the pro peloton to two teams, continuing to support Katusha.
Pictures have been released this week of the newly livered Canyon bikes with Movistar logos. The team will continue to use Campagnolo groupsets and matching wheels. The Spanish team have retained Alejandro Valverde and Nairo Quintana for next season.
The company will continue to sponsor Katusha, in a deal that has been running since 2012, making them one of only a few brands to sponsor more than one team, the others being Specialized and Scott. Canyon have been in the pro peloton since 2007, when they first entered the pro peloton with Unibet.com, before partnering with Omega Pharma-Lotto in 2009.
We’ll start to see a lot of the new 2014 team bikes and kit over the following weeks as most teams are currently at their first training camps where they’ll dishing out new equipment for the riders to start training on in preparation for next season. So watch this space, we'll keep you updated.
David worked on the road.cc tech team from 2012-2020. Previously he was editor of Bikemagic.com and before that staff writer at RCUK. He's a seasoned cyclist of all disciplines, from road to mountain biking, touring to cyclo-cross, he only wishes he had time to ride them all. He's mildly competitive, though he'll never admit it, and is a frequent road racer but is too lazy to do really well. He currently resides in the Cotswolds, and you can now find him over on his own YouTube channel David Arthur - Just Ride Bikes.

Sounds to me like they're getting ripped off. People have thrown together Raspberry Pi hardware along with a camera (there's some excellent camera...
Would it be too simple to say the categories are based on sex, not on gender?
I had to go and look that up and can only agree with you. Quite a handsome Coat of Arms as well.
That G turn from 2km to 1km was something to boggle at, wasn't it. Cav was magnificent, the others especially Milan surprisingly faded. Lovely...
Think you've got hold of the wrong end of the stick there, testosterone is reduced by taking testosterone blockers, not by 'taking oestrogen'....
I concur GP4000 is the hardest I've ever had to mount on a rim, Ultegra wheelset in my case. Shifted the outer skin on my thumbs!...
Another one who deliberately misuses the term. Looking for trouble. Yeah because in London you have to stake out a road all day to find one offence.
Ticks a box, doesn't it?...
Normally I don't have a small enough violin for them but in this case I guess it's possible that their office / secretary / intern submitted this...
