To dispel any doubts about which bike brand would sponsor the team in 2025, there were rumors of a possible agreement with Pinarello since the team owner has a stake in the Italian company. However, it was SCOTT Sports that announced the signing of the British rider by the Q36.5 Pro Cycling Team.

For the 2025 season, the team will ride SCOTT road bikes and Syncros components, including the Foil RC, Plasma RC TT models, and the new Addict RC.

“This isn’t just a change of jersey; it’s the start of something special,” said Pidcock. “The chance to work with a team that’s growing, with incredible partners and brands, is something that motivates me. I can’t wait to see what we’ll achieve together.”

“I know the challenge that we face getting to where we want to be but it’s an adventure and I’m excited for it,” he added.

Meanwhile, Pascal Ducrot, CEO of SCOTT, said:“We have been partnered with Q36.5 Pro Cycling Team since the beginning, and together we have built an incredible platform for racing and performance at the highest level. We trust in the leadership of this team and their fantastic commitment to achieving great results together. We are delighted that Tom Pidcock will be joining the team, and will be riding SCOTT road bikes and Syncros components from 2025.”

It is interesting to note that in the statement it is mentioned that Pidcock will compete on the road with SCOTT bikes, leaving the door open for him to use another brand in other disciplines or to focus solely on the road for the upcoming seasons.
