Mechanics of UCI top teams rely on UNIOR tools

After Etixx-Quick Step, Movistar and Trek - Segafredo, Unior Tools enjoy another victory when one other UCI top bike team chooses to rely on Unior. TEAM SKY is one of the top 4 teams in UCI and one of the most recent teams that chose to collaborate with Unior, through UNIOR BIKE TOOLS program, both in regard to publicity and to exclusive tools supply.

Over the years, Unior has been the partner of various mountain bike teams, such as Trek Factory Racing, Colnago Pro Team, Devinci Global Racing, Hutchinson UR Team, Kross Racing Team and Team Bulls, succeeding in climbing the top together at international championships like Tour de France, Giro D’Italia and UCI World Cup. Unior is not only the official partner of several races, including Team Raleigh, OCBC Singapore Continental Cycling Team and Etixx Cycling Team, but also the official tools supplier for UCI pro-tour teams, considered the elite teams of the sport, like Omega Pharma - Quick Step and Movistar.

In the professional field, success depends not only on the objectives we set and the commitment with which tasks are accomplished, but also "on the partners we elect around us to get things done", Tine Mahkovec, Product & Sales Manager for bicycle tools at Unior, suggests on Facebook. His background comes from downhill and 4cross racing, but also from events organization. Tine was UTT’s team manager since the foundation of the team in 2010, and, as a team director, along with the R&D and Sales Departements, distributors and mechanics, with whom he worked closely, Tine founded the most complex and ambitious UNIOR sports project. He is also a staff member who joins the bike teams to their championships, making sure that any problem that may arise with their bikes get fixed on the spot, by using the right tools, and helping them win the race.

The bike team which is now part of Unior’s "world" is made up of elite athletes, such as Tanja Žakelj - one of the fastest female bikers in the world, Jure Zabjek - one of the fastest Slovenian downhill racers, Ziga Pandur - one the fastest junior riders in Europe and Filip Flisar – a legend in the world of Ski Cross. Together, they managed to win UCI MTB World Cup, World Championships, European Championships, European Downhill Cup, National Championships and countless other events.

Just like in sports, competition is also present on the hand tools market, where only the best competitor wins. For Unior, this statement applies perfectly, as the constant provision of tools in the areas of automotive, motorcycle and cycling are not just some simple sponsorship contracts, but brand’s pride itself and a real confirmation of products’ standards of quality with safe, efficient and long-time use.

All sponsorships and tools provision in the areas of automotive, motorcycle and bicycle attest the products’ high quality and are a real proof that Unior has the best range of tools, chosen by famous teams of engineers around the world.
Carsten Jeppesen, Head of Technical Operations for one of the latest teams who chose UNIOR tools, TEAM SKY, made the following statement: "We are very excited to be working with Unior. Their quest for constant improvement, innovation and a keen eye for details matches our own, and the range of tools available to us is second to none. The feedback from our mechanics has also been really positive and we’ll work closely with Unior moving forwards to ensure we have the best tools in the business. "
