Prologo, the Italian brand manufacturer of high-performance saddles, and Team Picnic PostNL, are excited to announce a new partnership that will see them working together for the next two seasons.
Team Picnic PostNL has chosen Prologo as its new Technical Partner for road, time trial saddles and handlebar tapes that will be used by the men's World Tour, women's World Tour and Development teams.
With Team Picnic PostNL there will again be 7 teams racing in 2025 with Prologo, which once again confirms itself as the saddle brand with the highest number of supported World Tour teams.
The new partnership with Team Picnic PostNL, also strengthens the collaboration between Prologo and Accell Group, which with the Lapierre brand returns to compete in the men's and women's World Tour. A strategic partnership that has been going on for years both on and off road, with Lapierre teams racing together with Prologo in the MTB World Cup, Cross Country and Enduro disciplines.
‘We are excited to start our collaboration with Team Picnic PostNL. After a 2024 full of successes for Prologo, we look forward to facing more challenges with new athletes, technicians and mechanics, to develop together more and more innovative and performing products’. Said Salvatore Truglio, Brand Manager of Prologo. ‘A goal also shared with Accell group and the Lapierre brand, with whom we have already collaborated on the road and the off-road world. The close collaboration with engineers and athletes has allowed us to improve already existing products and also to create new lines such as Proxim, the saddles dedicated to gravity disciplines’.
‘We are very happy that Prologo has also joined forces in this new project, which goes beyond a simple commercial partnership with Accell group.’ Said Dorian Tabeau, Global Brand Director Accell Southern Europe. ‘We have already been working together with Prologo for several years with the Lapierre teams in mountain biking and the new collaboration with Team Picnic PostNL marks another milestone in our partnership. We are proud to be able to count on the quality of Prologo products on the road as well’.
The team's R&D expert, Piet Rooijakkers, said: ‘Prologo has always been at the forefront of introducing new technologies and has impressed us a lot with its high-quality saddles and handlebar tapes. Prologo's products are of a very high level and we can't wait to start racing with their range of performance saddles’.
The partnership between Prologo and Team Picnic PostNL is destined to be strengthened over the next two years, with close collaboration between athletes and staff, who will work in synergy with the common goal of improving performance to reach new and more ambitious goals.
