JLT Condor inks two-season deal with Wahoo

Wahoo Fitness has partnered with British UCI Continental team JLT Condor for the upcoming professional road racing season.

During the 2018 and 2019 seasons, JLT Condor will use Wahoo’s Elemnt Bolt GPS computer, Wahoo’s TICKR heart rate monitor and RPM Speed/ RPM Cadence sensors.

2018 will be JLT Condor’s eleventh year as a UCI Continental squad, having won numerous stages at the Tours of Korea, Taiwan and New Zealand Cycle Challenge, as well as GC victories at the Tour du Loir-et-Cher and the Bay Crits.

In partnering with Wahoo for two seasons, the JLT Condor squad joins BORA-Hansgrohe, Tour de France winners Team Sky, and Marcel Kittel’s Katusha Alpecin team in having opted to use Wahoo’s products.

JLT Condor’s team manager John Heretysaid: “We’re delighted to partner with Wahoo for the next two seasons. We always want to work alongside companies who have the same competitive edge and winning mentality as the team. It’s clear that Wahoo develop and build their products to a similar ethos, and that the Elemnt Bolt GPS computer offers notable performance gains in terms of its aerodynamic design and data capture technologies.”

“Following on from our partnerships with Bora-Hansgrohe, Team Sky and Katusha Alpecin, we are extremely proud that JLT Condor will be training and racing with Wahoo in 2018 and 2019,’ said Wahoo’s vice president of global marketing Colin Eustace. “I have no doubt that the performance gains offered by the Wahoo Elemnt Bolt GPS computer will benefit JLT Condor’s talented roster when they race in both the UK and abroad in the months ahead.”
