SD Worx-Protime has now also unveiled its gear for the new cycling season, and the Dutch star team is clearly taking a different direction for 2026. The squad is saying goodbye to its dark colors and going for a "dynamic mix of red, yellow, blue, and a spectrum of colors."
Specialized, in consultation with title sponsors SD Worx and Protime, is responsible for the design. "The new jersey captures the team’s and their sponsors’ ongoing drive to keep innovating," we read on the team’s website. "Not standing still, but continuously reinventing themselves on every front is highly valued at Team SD Worx-Protime."
"The new design symbolizes the rich history through the spark, which is now incorporated multiple times and in various shades. This underlines the team’s slogan: we spark success. The new jersey is especially surprising with its dynamic mix of red, yellow, blue, and a spectrum of colors. ‘New Dawn’ is more than a redesign; it’s a statement."
A ‘powerful and unique’ kit
Lotte Kopecky has ridden the rainbow jersey as world champion over the past years, but that will no longer be the case in 2026. "This is a special jersey that will definitely make us stand out in the peloton. It’s the first time since 2023 that I’ll be riding again in the team colors of SD Worx-Protime. The kit shows a striking change, which will take some time to get used to. But we will definitely honor this jersey."
Anna van der Breggen is also enthusiastic about the new kit. "The ‘New Dawn’ kit radiates energy and ambition. This design is colorful, powerful, and unique, exactly how we want to be as a team. I look forward to racing in this jersey and hopefully, we can achieve many successes again as a team."
