KASK has extended its long-standing partnership with INEOS Grenadiers, after signing a four-year contract renewal until 2024.
Since the start of their collaboration in 2010, the riders of INEOS Grenadiers (formerly Team Sky and Team INEOS) have ridden KASK helmets to numerous victories on the WorldTour stage – including, most notably, seven Tours de France.
KASK’s Grand Tour-winning history with INEOS Grenadiers began with the Mojito; the helmet that saw Sir Bradley Wiggins through to the team’s first Tour de France victory in 2012. The Protone arrived in 2014 and was worn to the team’s fourth Grand Tour conquest just one year later.
In 2016, KASK renewed its contract with the British outfit, later launching the lightweight Valegro (first seen in the 2017 Tour de France) and the Utopia aero-helmet (unveiled at 2018’s Tour Down Under). Both helmets have crossed the finish line first for multiple stage victories, occupied the top step of all three Grand Tour podiums and had more than their fair share of yellow, pink and red colour transformations in the years since.
Diego Zambon, General Manager of KASK said “As we approach a twelfth season with the world’s most successful cycling team, we are now very happy to say that this partnership will continue through to 2024.
“INEOS Grenadiers entrusting the safety of their riders to us, as a helmet supplier, is a true honour and source of pride, but also a great responsibility. Their input in the design and development of our helmets has been invaluable and their drive to succeed has in turn driven us to innovate and constantly improve our products. Here’s to another four years!”
Carsten Jeppesen, Head of Technical Operations & Commercial of INEOS Grenadiers, said “We have been working with KASK since the team’s inception in 2010 and in that time we have achieved a lot together.
“Alongside our eleven Grand Tour victories sit a series of world firsts in helmet development, not just making our riders faster but keeping them safe too. We are looking forward to building upon this history and continuing to achieve at the highest level of the sport.”
