Kazakh WorldTour squad Astana will ride on Wilier Triestina bikes in 2020, the team and its new bike supplier announced on Monday.

The team's three-year agreement with Canadian bike supplier Argon 18 finished at the end of the 2019 season, and while the length of the new agreement with Wilier has not been announced, the Italian manufacturer will also supply bikes to the Astana Women's Team and the men's Continental feeder teams Vino-Astana Motors and Astana City in 2020.
