Now an establish professional cyclist with five seasons at Pro Continental level already completed, Stephen Clancy will be decked out in this kit next season.
New look for cyclist Stephen Clancy and Novo Nordisk
Now approaching his sixth year in the pro ranks with Novo Nordisk, Ireland’s Stephen Clancy will have new-look kit in 2018.
Gone is the familiar all-white jersey and shorts that the team has always raced in.
It’s being replaced by a new mainly navy blue look, with sky blue bands on the chest and sleeves.
Clancy (25) has survived the reduction in the team’s rider roster for next year.
While Novo Nordisk, which features riders who are diabetic, has signed two new athletes it has reduced in size to 16 riders.
UK rider Sam Brand comes from a triathlon background to give pro cycling his full attention next year.

“The 2018 roster features some exciting changes for Novo Nordisk,” said team chief executive and co-founder Phil Southerland.
“We reduced our roster size so we can focus on the dedicated athletes whose primary goal is to inspire, educate and empower everyone around the world affected by diabetes.
“This new roster features our most committed athletes to date, and you can feel the increased motivation and morale that’s driving them to succeed.
“We are going into the 2018 season with renewed confidence and are motivated to get on the top step of the podium.”
He added the team’s new look had significant meaning for those in the diabetes community.
“We are proud to continue bringing global attention to diabetes and creating heroes for everyone affected by diabetes,” Southerland said.
“The blue circle is the symbol of the diabetes community and it reflects unity.
“Changing Diabetes is Novo Nordisk’s response to the global diabetes epidemic. At Team Novo Nordisk, we race to change diabetes.”
