Shimano’s neutral support service has been supporting the world’s biggest races for just under 20 years. During that time the company has provided the world’s best athletes and their teams with invaluable spare components or tech support to make sure their bikes are running in the best condition possible.
But it’s not only the pro’s who benefit. Many of these elite races have supporting sportives or Gran Fondos to give thousands of fans the chance to ride the same route. And of course Shimano provides exactly the same level of support to ensure that everyone’s bike can operate as safely and as efficiently as possible.
During 2018 Shimano will be supporting riders in the top one-day classics in Belgium and the Netherlands in March and April, Spain’s Vuelta a España during September, and now, as we announced recently, Italy’s Giro d’Italia in May plus the one-day Italian classics, Strade Bianche, Tirreno Adriatico, Milano Sanremo, Gran Piemonte, Milano Torino and the Giro di Lombardia.
