All the WorldTour team bikes, tech and kit 2024
Despite Jumbo-Visma’s Grand Tour dominance, Specialized were the most successful bike brand in 2023, with its sponsorship of four WorldTour teams – including the force in women’s cycling SD Worx – paying off as they clocked up three more stage wins than Canyon, who had a strong Classics year thanks to Mathieu van der Poel.
With the 2024 season upon us down under, there are no more secrets about sponsor and aesthetic changes, and this year has seen an influx of switches.
Purists look away now, because in 2024 there isn’t a single WorldTour team using a Campagnolo groupset, with the final domino to fall the newly named Decathlon-AG2R, who have also switched bikes from BMC to Van Rysel. Other big changes include Groupama-FDJ and Lapierre splitting for the first time ever, SRAM taking on other big team after a huge 2023 and some bloody lovely paintjobs for Jayco-AlUla.
While there are no official new bikes out and about, winter training camps have seen a number of unreleased bikes and kit being leaked.

Alpecin-Deceuninck and Fenix-Deceuninck
