Team Bahrain Victorious is excited to unveil a multi-year partnership with ELILEE, a burgeoning Chinese brand renowned for its high-performance cranksets and power meters. This collaboration is set to commence in the 2026 cycling season, marking a pivotal moment in the team’s evolution.
Founded in 2021 by Shu Li under Yun Shu Industrial Design, ELILEE has rapidly emerged as a leader in the cycling components market, focusing on cutting-edge cranksets and power meters. The brand has gained acclaim for its technical excellence, lightweight products, and robust reliability, making it a desirable partner as Bahrain Victorious embarks on a new chapter with Bianchi.
As part of this transition, Bahrain Victorious undertook a thorough evaluation of its components to ensure they meet the demands of elite-level performance. After extensive testing of various crank and power meter solutions, ELILEE was recognized as the top choice. The brand’s offerings combine data precision, low weight, and durability under race conditions, essential attributes for any professional cycling team.
Filip Tisma, Head Mechanic of Bahrain Victorious, shared his insights: “As we moved on to a new bike this season, we took the opportunity to reassess our full component set-up and tested several crank and power meter solutions available on the market. ELILEE excelled during our testing, delivering an impressive combination of lightweight performance and reliability, which is crucial. We are really happy to be working together and, importantly, to continue developing and improving performance through consistent feedback as we look to the future.”
ELILEE’s dedication to innovation, design, and safety resonates with the performance-centric philosophy of Bahrain Victorious, which seeks marginal gains across all aspects of their operation. The partnership is designed for riders who demand precision and efficiency, mirroring the competitive mindset that drives Bahrain Victorious to success.
Shu Li, Founder and CEO of ELILEE, expressed his enthusiasm: “ELILEE is proud to join forces with the WorldTour team Bahrain Victorious in a partnership focused on continuous performance improvement. This collaboration reflects our ambition to perform in a world where every detail counts, alongside a team with whom we share the same vision and drive for the future. At ELILEE, we believe in the power of partnerships to push progress further, and together with Bahrain Victorious we are excited to build a better future for cycling enthusiasts worldwide.”
Moving forward, this partnership will allow ELILEE and Bahrain Victorious to engage in product development, performance optimization, and ongoing innovation. By leveraging feedback from the highest level of professional cycling, both partners aim to continually enhance their offerings, making a significant mark on the world of cycling.
