The BMC Racing Team unveiled its new team kit on Monday at a press conference in Switzerland. Swiss manufacturer Assos has designed the American-registered WorldTour team's clothing for 2017, which now features the logo of new sponsor, Swiss watch manufacturer Tag Heuer.

Like many associations between pro teams and clothing manufacturers, the partnership will see the development of race clothing that will filter down to commercially available products. Previously, the BMC team rode in Pearl Izumi clothing.

Nigel Wynn
Former Associate Editor

Nigel Wynn worked as associate editor on CyclingWeekly.com, he worked almost single-handedly on the Cycling Weekly website in its early days. His passion for cycling, his writing and his creativity, as well as his hard work and dedication, were the original driving force behind the website’s success. Without him, CyclingWeekly.com would certainly not exist on the size and scale that it enjoys today. Nigel sadly passed away, following a brave battle with a cancer-related illness, in 2018. He was a highly valued colleague, and more importantly, an exceptional person to work with - his presence is sorely missed.
