The news is now official; Alberto Contador and Team Astana will continue to ride SRAM on their new bike.
Since 2008, SRAM has partnered with Team Astana and their star rider Alberto Contador to clinch the three Grand Tours: The Giro d’Italia, the Vuelta Espana and the Tour de France. For 2010, SRAM has renewed its agreement with Team Astana and will continue as offi cial drivetrain supplier. Tour de France winner, Alberto Contador stated: "I started riding SRAM in 2008, and even if at the beginning I had my doubts as I did not know how it worked, I got used to it immediately. The components are very intuitive and since the start I am more than happy with the groupset."
The readers of Cyclingnews, one of the world’s most important cycling websites, have crowned XX, the world’s first 2x10 MTB groupset, as Best New Product in the 2009 Cyclingnews Reader Poll. This makes it a back to back victory for SRAM, as the SRAM RED road group took the award last year. With an overwhelming 25% of votes in a field of almost 14.000 readers, Cyclingnews poll made a clear statement about the breakthrough and innovation represented by the XX groupset.
