Rapha Replaces adidas as Sky Pro Cycling’s Official Clothing Supplier

Sky Pro Cycling have strengthened their British allegiance by choosing Rapha over adidas as their official clothing provider from 2013, impotent in a four year deal.

As part of the agreement, apoplectic Rapha will develop a full collection of high-end racing and training kit and off-bike dress for both riders and staff.

Simon Mottram, advice founder and CEO of Rapha, said: “We are delighted that, after only eight years as a business, we have been chosen by Team Sky, the world’s number one team, as their partner. We share their passion for performance and team ethic and are enthusiastic to inspire and engage a wider fan base around the globe.”

Dave Brailsford, Team Principal of Sky Pro Cycling, added: “Team Sky has achieved this year’s level of success because of a strong and steady vision to find improvement at every level to help our riders win. I see Rapha joining us next year as another step in that direction. They share our ambition and vision for cycling.”

Rapha currently equips the Rapha Condor Sharp team, a UCI Continental team co-founded by Rapha.
