The Colnago–CSF Inox nine rid­ers for the Giro d’Italia will aim for suc­cess through­out the three weeks of rac­ing thanks to a bal­anced team of sprint­ers, climbers and aggres­sive riders.

The nine rid­ers that will line-up in Herning in Denmark for the start of the Giro tomor­row are: Domenico Pozzovivo, Sacha Modolo, Enrico Battaglin, Gianluca Brambilla, Stefano Pirazzi, Stefano Locatelli, Angelo Pagani, Marco Coledan and Sonny Colbrelli. Bruno and Roberto Reverberi and Mirko Rossato will man­age the team dur­ing the race.

“We’ve pre­pared metic­u­lously for the Giro d’Italia. We’ve got a well-balanced team. We’re moti­vated and are ready for the chal­lenge ahead. We can’t wait to get rac­ing,” team man­ager Roberto Reverberi said.

Marco Coledan, Gianluca Brambilla and Sonny Colbrelli will be a for­mi­da­ble lead out train for Sacha Modolo; Stefano Pirazzi and Enrico Battaglin are expected to be aggres­sive in break­aways, while Domenico Pozzovivo will aim to shine in the moun­tain stages and the over­all classification.

The Colnago-CSF Inox team pre­pared for the Giro d’Italia at the Giro del Trentino and the Tour of Turkey. Pozzovivo won the Italian stage race and impressed in the moun­tains, while Modolo took a psy­cho­log­i­cally impor­tant stage win in Turkey after some excel­lent lead out work by his teammates.

“We’ll go on the attack but with intel­li­gence. We’ll focus on obtain­ing excel­lent results. That means we’ll be in the key break­aways. Not just to get on tele­vi­sion but to make it all the way to the fin­ish and win,” Reverberi said.
