“Team Visma | Lease a Bike is a dream team for me,” Rex said about his move. “I believe that with all the experience and specialists within the team, I can make significant progress. I enjoy climbing, but I’m still quite all-round. In this team, I expect to discover my true specialization. I’m also looking forward to the racing style and hope to learn more about tactics.”

“Tim is a very strong rider whom we have been following for a long time and who can perform well in various terrains,” said head of development Robbert de Groot about the newest addition. “He performs well in classics, but in the Tour de l’Avenir, he also climbed with the best riders. Together with him, we will explore where his strengths truly lie.”
