Colgano has reserved a unique and special bike for its champion Tadej Pogacar
This customized Colnago V4Rs sports a multi-colored livery, a true tribute to the already impressive career of the 25-year-old prodigy. Each shade evokes a victory or a distinctive jersey won by Pogačar: yellow recalls his three Tours de France (2020, 2021, 2024), pink his recent Giro d’Italia, green his victories in the Ardennes classics, while the red polka dots refer to his two titles as best climber on the Grande Boucle.
Other colors complete this cycling kaleidoscope: the light blue of Paris-Nice, the white of the best young person’s jersey, or even bronze, a nod to his Olympic and world medals. Even purple finds its place, adding a personal touch dear to the runner.
The Slovenian is the big favorite for the coveted rainbow tunic of champions
Beyond its unique aesthetic, this Colnago V4Rs also benefits from components specially designed for the event, such as a Carbon-Ti chainring and a custom rear derailleur. This exceptional bike illustrates not only Tadej Pogačar’s already rich track record, but also the Slovenian’s ambitions for these Zurich Worlds, where he will undoubtedly aim for the rainbow jersey to complete his collection of prestigious victories.
