With Chinese carbon product manufacturer XDS Carbon-Tech on board as a sponsor for 2025, Astana Qazaqstan will have new bikes, several new riders and a new name for the coming season - XdS (Carbon-Tech) - Astana Qazaqstan, La Gazzetta dello Sport reports.
It's the first time since the team's founding in 2007 that Astana, the team's state-funded sponsor, won't be the first name on their official title. The Shenzen-based company has become a major investor in the team and is looking to make "significant changes".
