This is the Cyclingnews WorldTour bike guide for 2019: your comprehensive 𝐆guide to who's riding what and the latest tech trends at the top level of the sport. You can find links to all our 2019 pro bike galleries at the bottom of the page.

The 2018 season saw each WorldTour team st༺ick with the same bike brands they used in 2017. For 2019, nearly a quarter of the 18 teams have struck new bike sponsorship deals, with one Belgian manufacturer returning to the top tier of the sport for the first time since 2011.

The biggest bike brands have a merry-go-round of team sponsorships in the WorldTour every few years. BMC Racing have morphed into the CCC Team and switch from 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:BMC bikes to Giant. Team Sunweb, in turn, move from 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Giant to Cervélo, leaving 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Dimension Data to sign with BMC to complete the triangle.

AG2R La Mondiale and Factor Bikes have come to the end of their two-year partnership and the French team have 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:signed with Eddy Merckx Bikes, while Factor have moved on to 1🅰68澳洲5最新开奖结果:Roompot-Charles and Parkhotel Valkenburg. The Belgian brand Eddy Merckx Bikes have had a hiatus from the WorldTour for eight years after Specialized bought out their contract with Quick-Step Floors back in 2🥂011.

The newly announced partಌnerships will see four of th𒉰e 18 WorldTour teams on new bikes next season, with groupsets, wheels and accessories also seeing a shake up after new 12-speed groupsets have been launched by SRAM and Campagnolo.

New bikes, new components

The 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:2018 season will be remembered as the year of the aero bike after Specialized, Trek, Cannondale, BMC, Cervélo and Ridley all brough🐈t out new or updated aero models, with all bar the new Cervélo S5 being raཧced on.

This year also saw groupset innovation as Campagnolo dialled up the speed from 11- to 12-speed groupsets with three WorldTour teams using Campagnolo 12🔯-speed EPS and AG2R La Mondiale using last year's Campagnolo Super Record 11-speed EPS at the Tour Down Under before switching to Shimano Ultegra Di2 at the Opening Weekend races.

Cyclingnews has put together a table of the framesets, groupsets, wheels, finishing kit and other accessorཧies that will be used by each WorldTour team on 2🎀019.

Who's on what

12 is the new 11

Following several years of all of the major drivetrain manufacturers using 11-speed, Campagnolo was the first brand to release a road-specific 12-speed groupset last year and SRAM announced their 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:new RED eTap AXS 12-speed groupset in February.

A 12-speed wireless SRAM Red eTap groupset was also spotted recently at the Saitama Tour de France Criterium in Ja♛pan in November. Although this is the⛄ first time the technology has been seen on a road bike, SRAM has plenty of credentials when it com𝓰es to 12-speed within off-road disciplines.

With two of the major drivetrain players already at the table, it would be no surprise to see Shimano adding another g💝ear and joining the party. It is perhaps just a case 𝕴of when.

Aero is everything?

The 2018 season saw new aero framesets launched (in no particular order) from 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Specialized, Trek, BMC, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Cannondale and Ridley, alongside a disc-specific option added to 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Argon 18's Nitrogen model.

Each of the above framesets is either ಞdisc brake-only or have a disc option and as well as the aero improvement claims, weight is also beginning to come off in a category that has been notoriously heavy in the past.

Vincenzo Nibali (Bahrain-Merida) rode several Tour de France stages on a 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Merida Reacto frameset, also winning Milan-San Remo aboard it earlier in the season, and the Italian's mechanics say Nibali's aero machine is very close to the 6.8kg UCI weight limit. Gone are the days of the nine kilogram aero race bike.
