Tour de Romandie stage winner Stefan Küng will join Taylor Phinney on BMC Racing’s six-rider roster for the upcoming Tour of Britain, which starts Sunday in Beaumaris, Anglesey.

Küng, who continues his return from a fractured vertebrae that sidelined the 21-year-old Swiss rider for three months, won the Volta Limburg in April and a stage at the Tour de Romandie in May before injuring his back in a crash during the Giro d’Italia’s 12th stage.

BMC previously announced that Phinney, who recently won a stage of USA Pro Challenge and led the overall for a day in one of his first races back following his own 14-month recovery, will compete in Britain. Joining them is Dylan Teuns, who finished 10th overall at least year's Tour of Britain. Swiss national road champion Danilo Wyss, Tour of Austria stage winner Rick Zabel and stagiaire Floris Gerts round out the roster for the eight-day race.
