UEC signs apparel partner

Italian cycling wear manufacturer Alé has entered into a partnership with the European Cycling Union (UEC).

Alé has agreed a four-year deal to serve as the UEC’s kit provider from 2017 to 2020.

The agreement includes all disciplines and categories and covers 15 continental races in total.

Alé last month extended a similar agreement with the French Cycling Federation (FFC). The company will continue to serve as the body’s official supplier until 2020.

Federico Zecchetto of Alé said: “This sponsorship will enable us to promote everywhere in Europe the key strengths of our brand – 100 per cent performance, technicity and quality products made in Italy.”
