The Team Picnic PostNL Xelius DRS features the new color scheme and strong new identity of the race kit. The base color is Blueberry with touches of a lighter, more attractive purplish blue.

The Xelius DRS Team Picnic PostNL also incorporates the famous signature and visual identity of the international team based in the Netherlands with the two orange stripes on the back of the seat tube and the team’s slogan “Keep Challenging” on the top tube. The inside of the fork legs, which fade from red to blue, is a nod to Picnic, the team’s new main co-sponsor. This bike will make its first race appearance at the end of January during the AlUla Tour for men and the UAE Tour for women.

A fusion of the Xelius SL and the Aircode DRS, the Xelius DRS embodies Lapierre’s new vision of performance at the highest level. With the unique lines of the 3D Tubular concept, the streamlined silhouette of the front of the bike, and the optimized curves of its cockpit, this bike deciphers the codes of victory. Team Picnic PostNL knows this perfectly: every element is designed for Charlotte Kool and Fabio Jakobsen to triumph in sprints. It is also designed to support Romain Bardet and Marta Cavalli and other climbers/all-rounders towards mountain summits or hilly stages.

Through this partnership with Team Picnic PostNL and the anticipated future victories, Lapierre demonstrates its ambition to perform at the highest level and its desire to extend its reputation beyond its borders to conquer new markets in Europe and around the world.
