Team LottoNL-Jumbo’s Slovenian rode to second position in Alto da Fóia’s uphill finish
Team LottoNL-Jumbo’s Primoz Roglic placed second in Portugal, in Volta ao Algarve stage 2, 189,3 km from Lago to Alto da Fóia uphill finish on Thursday, February 16th. The 27-year-old Slovenian attacked on the 9-km final climb with his Oltre XR4, outdistancing Michal Kwiatkowski and Amaro Antunes and eventually sprinting for victory with Irish Daniel Martin, who topped the stage.
Roglic is currently second in the GC as well, with a 4-second gap from Martin himself, and third in the KOM classification.
Team LottoNL-Jumbo’s riders are equipped with four models engineered with Countervail® viscoelastic carbon material:
Oltre XR4, designed to maximize the aerodynamic advantage and control
Specialissima, the ultralight frame, perfect for GC riders, it’s extra stiff for increased traction and stability at high speeds, and maximum control on the descents
Infinito CV, the ideal bike for the Classics, it provides remarkable control on uneven surfaces and reduces muscular fatigue.
Aquila CV, the ultimate time trial machine, it’s designed to increase power output and rider’s energy, with maximum control with each pedal stroke.
