What's the big secret in the Pro Peloton? It's Classified.
After identifying potential time savings from the Classified Powershift system, team INEOS Grenadiers conducted research and testing to confirm its efficacy. The results identified measurable improvements in efficiency and speed and so the team made the decision to incorporate the technology into the equipment list for cycling's most prestigious events. This promised to give riders a competitive edge on the sport's grandest stages.
Historic moment for Classified
The first time the team put the equipment to the 'race test' was during one of the world's greatest stage races, the Giro d'Italia. Team INEOS Grenadiers achieved outstanding results during the first time trial: Filippo Ganna (2nd), Magnus Sheffield (3rd), and Thymen Arensman (4th) secured top-four finishes, with Geraint Thomas also making the top ten.
Our technology offers unparalleled control, efficiency, and reliability, giving professional teams the confidence they need to support their athletes to achieve incredible results.
