Second WorldTour Team chooses CloseTheGap

Second WorldTour Team chooses CloseTheGap
Team Picnic PostNL has partnered with Dutch brand CloseTheGap and will use the company's handlebar mount solutions throughout the season. During the Tour de France, the team's riders will race with the ultra-light raceday4 s5 evo GPS mount.

Weighing just 25 grams, the raceday4 s5 evo combines minimal weight with maximum strength and reliability. During training, Team Picnic PostNL riders will be using the same mount, complemented by the modular bell and light mount. This provides a safe training setup without compromising on usability or clean aesthetics.

"CloseTheGap's handlebar mounts perfectly meet our performance requirements," says Piet Rooijakkers of Team Picnic PostNL. "The modular system allows us to easily add a bell and lights during training, enabling us to combine performance and safety without compromise. We're pleased to partner with a brand that shares our focus on innovation and continuous product development."

"We're delighted to welcome Team Picnic PostNL as our second WorldTour partner," says Mathijs Wagenaar, owner of CloseTheGap. "WorldTour teams demand the very highest standards from their equipment, and their feedback plays a vital role in helping us continuously improve our products. Seeing two WorldTour teams choose our cockpit solutions for the Tour de France is a fantastic endorsement of the quality and performance of our products."

The partnership reflects the shared commitment of Team Picnic PostNL and CloseTheGap to innovation, performance, and the continuous development of cutting-edge cycling equipment.
