Tour de Tietema-Unibet

Tour de Tietema started out as a group of guys with a YouTube channel through which they wanted to bring the professional cycling world closer to the viewer in a fun and relatable manner. 

Since 2023, the team itself is closer to the professional cycling world then ever. With the name Tour de Tietema-Unibet they made the step to the UCI Continental level. Hoping to one day join the ProTeam level and ride the biggest tours. Lazer supports the team's journey to (hopefully) the Tour de France and other big races by providing the most suitable helmets for the riders, such as Vento KinetiCore. 

Next to giving out enormous amounts of pizza's to professional cyclists, the team produces quality content that not only entertains but inspires others to step on their bike. A great extenstion of the Lazer brand.

Yeti / Shimano EP Racing Team

Formed in 2022, the brand new Yeti / Shimano EP Racing Team features renowned MTB athletes Mick Hannah and Keegan Wright. Both athletes have many great accomplishments in the downhill world, and confidently transferred this knowledge to the E-Enduro World Series in 2022. In a discipline where athletes are pushed to the limit on both downhill and technical climbs, safety is key. Lazer ensures this safety by providing helmets that suit the riders best, such as Cage KinetiCore - the first ever 5-star rated full-face helmet on Virginia Tech.

In addition, the team has and will continue to be an integral part of Lazer’s product development. After several tests, weighing, and measuring processes. There is no better way to really put a helmet to test than letting an experienced pro-athlete that has been racing since 2001, wear it. Mick Hannah provides valuable feedback on both launched and soon-to-be launched helmets, allowing Lazer to adjust where necessary.
