The EF Education First-Drapac team has revealed its kit for 2018, opting for bright pink, white and green as its colours for the coming season. The colours have been designed to show of the sponsor logo and also stand out in an ever-darker professional peloton.A similar orange, white and green kit has been designed for training, with the bright colours designed to help road safety.
The clothing is produced by technical sponsor POC, which also provides similar brightly-coloured helmets. The new colours were presented by team manager Jonathan Vaughters, directeur sportif Andreas Klier, POC's head of sports marketing Sara Laurell and new signing Kim Magnusson Friday at the Rouleur Classic in London.
The EF Education First logo takes a central position on the front and rear of the jersey, with Drapac and Cannondale in smaller font below it. Drapac fills the side of the shorts, with the Cannondale C on the shoulders. The shorts are traditional black with touches of green argyle. Green argyle also appears on the cuffs and collar of the jersey, with green socks seemingly a part of the bright look.
