After two seasons at Team Jayco AlUla, Eddie Dunbar is set to leave the Australian World Tour team and has signed for ProConti outfit Q36.5 Pro Cycling. His departure from his current team comes at a time when it is effectively undergoing an overhaul.
He will be joining a squad that currently contains British rider Tom Pidcock as it's only heavy-hitting general classification rider, meaning Dunbar should get a lot of team leadership chances in races of his choice.
Dunbar told stickybottle in recent weeks that, despite exiting the Tour de France after a crash on stage 7, he had a number of contract offers and was effectively all set for next season.
