Lazer Volante Time Trial helmet to debut during the Tour de France, while Team Jumbo-Visma & Lazer extend their partnership.

A big battle to win the 107th Tour de France is expected during the race’s last week. The final Time Trial to La Planche des Belles Filles on the 19th of September will be the last opportunity to create a big difference in the general classification. With Primož Roglič currently sitting 1st overall, the new Lazer Volante Time Trial helmet might be just what he needs to make the final difference.

“As a team we are extremely happy to have been able to improve our riders’ speed, comfort and overall performance with the development of the new Lazer Volante Time Trial helmet.” Mathieu Heijboer - Performance Manager, Team Jumbo-Visma. “We’ve been working on this project with Lazer for over two years and have spent long hours in the wind tunnel and in the field in order to create gains in aerodynamics and comfort. Collaborating with us, Lazer has developed the perfect combination of performance, comfort and protection.”
