The new Colnago Y1Rs world champion edition of Tadej Pogacar in detail

These days Tadej Pogacar is competing in the UAE Tour, a race in which he scored his first victory of the season just yesterday, riding the new Colnago Y1Rs. A grand debut of the new aerodynamic bike that Colnago launched in early December and that the Cambiago brand has taken advantage of to put on sale the special edition with the same rainbow colors.

Tadej Pogacar turns the new Colnago Y1Rs into a winning bike

The mainly flat routes of the stages of the UAE Tour, the stage race in the United Arab Emirates that Tadej Pogacar has chosen this year to kick off his season and, in the process, satisfy his sponsors, offer the ideal terrain to test the latest creation from Colnago, the spectacular Y1Rs with which the Italian brand enters the world of aerodynamic road bikes.

A bike that stands out for the technical solutions adopted by Colnago such as the diagonal tube that curves to adapt to the wheel contour, the peculiar design of the seat tube and horizontal Defy joint designed to increase stiffness while favoring great absorption and, above all, the striking CC.Y1 handlebar in the shape of a Y from which the Y1Rs surely takes its name.

Going beyond the bike we knew during the winter concentration of the UAE Team Emirates-XRG, in this UAE Tour we have seen the Slovenian cyclist with a design of the same with the colors of the World Champion.

A scheme that follows similar lines to the V1Rs climber that Tadej Pogacar already showed and that features details such as the rainbow bands with a design of his profile that emulates the characteristic strands of hair that come out through the helmet of the Slovenian or Tadej Pogagar's personal logo on the top tube.

ENVE has also joined the customization of the bike with SES wheels in which the logos of the American brand also adopt the rainbow colors.

A decoration that Colnago has announced will be among the available options for sale of this Y1Rs and serves to pay tribute to the success of the Slovenian "Tadej Pogacar's success, bringing our 28th World Champion title to Colnago, is a testament to the excellence of Colnago bikes. Now cyclists will be able to enjoy the same bike with the colors of the World Champion designed to perform at the highest level," said Nicola Rosin, CEO of the Italian brand.
