As anticipated by Marketing Director Bertocchi this morning at the Strade Bianche 2026 presentation Colnago is pleased to announce the agreement signed with RCS Sports & Events that will see the historic Cambiago brand serve as Official Bike for two of the most iconic events in Italian and international cycling: Strade Bianche and Il Lombardia.
The partnership, lasting three years, includes Colnago as Official Bike not only for the two professional competitions but also for their respective amateur events, the Granfondo Strade Bianche and Granfondo Il Lombardia, further strengthening the brand's connection with passionate cycling enthusiasts.
Strade Bianche, which takes place in Tuscany in the stunning setting of Siena, and Il Lombardia, which traverses Colnago's home territories, represent two key moments in the world cycling season: the opening classic of spring and the Monument that closes the year. Two events capable of combining high-level competition, sporting tradition, and the extraordinary beauty of the Italian landscape, animated each year by the passion of thousands of fans along the roads.
Nicola Rosin, CEO of Colnago, commented on the agreement with great satisfaction:
"Strade Bianche represents today the most iconic cycling event in the world, both professionally and among amateurs. The beauty that permeates the entire Sienese weekend is a fundamental part of our brand's essence: Colnago has triumphed in three of the last four editions, and could only continue to be part of it."
Rosin then added, referring to the Classic of the Falling Leaves:
"Il Lombardia has now established itself as the race that closes the season, attracting an exceptional start list every year. Moreover, it takes place in the territory adjacent to our manufacturing facility and, given the many victories achieved on Colnago over the years, we deeply feel it as our home race."
