Ineos Grenadiers have today unveiled the end of a 12-year partnership with Oakley, in a move that will see the team switch to fellow British outfit, SunGod. The new partnership is being described as 'long term', though no specific contract length is stated. 

SunGod was founded following a Kickstarter round of funding in 2013, and has exploded onto the cycling glasses scene in recent years following a move away from snowsports, thanks to a steady stream of new launches and a full customisation process built into the purchase.
