Team DSM (Italy) - Press Release: With the start of the Giro d’Italia in Turin less than a month away, Team DSM confirm their eight-rider strong roster that will take on a challenging and climb-filled La Corsa Rosa.

Lying ahead of the team is an incredibly testing route around Italy, including treacherous gravel roads featured in Strade Bianche, brutally steep leg-sapping climbs such as the famous Monte Zoncolan, medium-mountain stages that entice attacks and a testing time trial to finish. Looking to build on their successful 2020 campaign in which the team finished with two riders on the GC podium, alongside a stage win and stints in the leader’s jersey, the team will once again go all-in for a top team GC result after 21 days of hard racing.

With strong foundations laid in the designing and execution of training and various other specialist areas, early season racing and altitude training, the team’s Giro d’Italia block will be ready to roll out in style in Turin as they showcase the distinctive two Keep Challenging stripes on their new Team DSM colours for the very first time in a Grand Tour.

Line-up:

• Nikias Arndt (GER)
• Romain Bardet (FRA)
• Nico Denz (GER)
• Chris Hamilton (AUS)
• Jai Hindley (AUS)
• Max Kanter (GER)
• Nicholas Roche (IRL)
• Michael Storer (AUS)
