A close-up look at the Ridley Noah SL aero road bike Aqua Blue Sport’s riders are using.
Having come into Aqua Blue Sport after the five years of his career to date at WorldTour level, American Larry Warbasse looks like one of the stronger riders in a very tidy 16-man roster.
And because he’s competed from three seasons at BMC followed by a two-year stint at IAM Cycling, Warbasse knows a thing or two about the rigours his bikes and kit will be put through.
So no better man to talk us through the Ridley Noah SL aero Rick Delaney’s men will ride this year.
The bikes are equipped with Shimano Dura Ace Di2 group sets and finishing kit from Ridley’s Belgian sister company 4ZA Components.
The team’s wheel provider, already revealed in recent weeks, is the American manufacturer Knight Composites.
