Scicon (Italy) - SCICON Sports, the leader in high performance bags and accessories for professionals and enthusiasts, has partnered with WorldTour cycling outfit Team Bahrain McLaren for 2020; providing riders and staff access to their high performance range of bike travel bags and luggage options.

Team Bahrain McLaren’s roster of riders is strong with the likes of Mark Cavendish, Wout Poels, Pello Bilbao and Mikel Landa joining Sonny Colbrelli, Dylan Teuns and Matej Mohorič for 2020 – all of whom will be using SCICON Sports products throughout the upcoming season.

For many years, SCICON Sports has been highly visible throughout the uppermost echelons of cycling, with SCICON’s popular Podium Backpack the choice of top soigneurs for carrying everything riders could need upon crossing the finish line. Meanwhile, SCICON’s range of technical Race Rain Bags, Physio and Cooler Bags allow teams to safely and conveniently transport everything from nutrition to additional kit required during, pre and post-race. Perhaps the best known product, the acclaimed AeroComfort 3.0 Bike Travel Bag provides riders and staff the ability to securely and easily transport bikes during their many days of international travel, while SCICON Sports’ range of luggage trolleys and backpacks mean no item gets left behind.

2020 is lining up to be a big year for SCICON Sports with the recent announcements that the Italian brand has now partnered with 4 WorldTour cycling teams including Team Bahrain McLaren, with further partnerships yet to be announced.

Claudio Fantin, SCICON Marketing Strategist, said of the partnership, “I’m delighted that SCICON Sports has once again partnered with Team Bahrain McLaren. SCICON has a proud history of attention to design and it’s clear that this latest iteration of the team has brought together a group of partners who share this trait. We can’t wait to see our range of high quality bike bags and luggage helping the team perform at its best in the WorldTour”.

Rod Ellingworth, Team Principal of Team Bahrain McLaren, said, “SCICON is the benchmark in bike bags and luggage, so we are delighted they are founding partners of our new team. They mirror our rider-first approach, developing products based on anticipating the needs of elite-level athletes. We also look forward to working with SCICON to provide even more insight to aid future product development. The Tour Down Under is our first race and SCICON will play a key role in getting our team race-ready.”
