Intermarché–Wanty Team Gear: Bikes, Gadgets & Tech for 2025 ⚙️
When you’re a wildcard warrior at the Tour de France, you don’t just need legs and lungs — you need world-class weapons. And for 2025, Intermarché–Wanty is rolling with a setup built for breakaways, climbs, and chaos sprints.
The Bikes: Cube Litening C:68X & Litening Aero
Intermarché–Wanty has partnered with Cube for their battle rigs in 2025, swapping out last year’s Meridas. They’re deploying two cutting-edge models:
- Cube Litening C:68X: Lightweight climber’s dream for mountain raids.
- Cube Litening Aero: All-out aero beast for sprints and breakaways.
💥 2025 Highlights:
- Upgraded carbon layups for stiffness-to-weight gains
- Shimano Di2 integration for cleaner cockpit aesthetics
- Newmen wheel compatibility with tubeless Hutchinson race rubber
⚙️ Groupsets, Wheels & Performance Meters
Drivetrain: Shimano Dura-Ace Di2 — reliable, precise, and fully race-proven electronic shifting.
Wheels: Newmen Advanced SL — versatile tubeless-ready wheelsets for climbing and sprint stages alike.
Power Meters: Shimano integrated crank-based units, feeding real-time wattage to DS Aike Visbeek for tactical calls.
Tyres: Hutchinson Racing Lab tubeless clinchers — fast, grippy, and resistant to race-day punctures.
Helmet, Eyewear & Tech
Helmet: Uvex Sports helmets — lightweight and aero for performance and protection.
Sunglasses: Uvex Sports eyewear — sharp optics for long hot days in the saddle.
Pedals: Shimano Dura-Ace SPD-SL — reliable engagement and wide cleat platform.
Bartape & Saddle: Prologo supplies both saddles and bar tape for tailored comfort.
Cycling Computer: Bryton GPS head units — tracking every watt, kilometre, and KOM attempt.
