We get technical with Koen de Kort, Head of Innovation and Tech at Lidl-Trek. After 17 years racing at the highest level - 43 classics, 18 Grand Tours - Koen now sits on the other side of the sport, driving the technology that gives WorldTour riders their edge. We dig into his current projects, where the biggest performance gains are being found right now, how cycling tech has evolved from his days in the peloton, and what the future of race equipment, skin suits, aerodynamics and bikes looks like.
