The 2026 kit

The 2026 EF Education–EasyPost jersey is the team's first made by Swiss brand Assos, ending the Rapha era that began in 2018 (Cyclingnews/Cycling Weekly call it a seven-year partnership, closed at the end of 2025) — same unmistakable EF pink, new graphics. The base is EF's signature hot bubblegum pink (#F25AA3). Over it flow rounder, organic circular shapes in a slightly darker magenta-pink (#C33580) that replace the argyle/rhombic diamonds of the Rapha years — but they are subtle and tone-on-tone, a swirl that 'barely shows up on camera' rather than a high-contrast lava-lamp print. The whole jersey is overlaid with a subtle fine white square grid, giving a faint graph-paper/wireframe texture; the official Assos palette is 'SpaceSilver, Pink, Black' with a space-exploration theme ('grids and spheres'). Thin white/silver trim lines ring the sleeve ends and run down the side panels — the 'astronaut' finish. On the front: the white 'ef' Education First logo sits on the center chest with the white 'EASYPOST' wordmark stacked directly beneath it; a small ASSOS logo marks the top of the full-length pink front zipper, with ASSOS wordmarks on the upper sleeves; a small white 'Cannondale' wordmark sits at the shoulder/collarbone. Low-profile race collar in matching pink. At the Tour the riders wear the short-sleeved race jersey: long aero-cut sleeves ending mid-bicep with raw-edge bonded cuffs trimmed by the thin white/silver ring. The bib shorts are plain black with white EF/EasyPost logos on the thighs and Assos branding, black leg grippers — a classic dark contrast to the loud pink jersey. Pink POC helmets (Ventral Air MIPS team edition) and pink Cannondale SuperSix Evo frames (with SRAM components, new for 2026) complete the look. At the 2026 Tour de France the team wears this standard pink kit: the green alien-themed 'Ride in Peace' changeout was a Giro d'Italia one-off, and EF is not among the six teams (Visma-Lease a Bike, Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe, Movistar, Jayco AlUla, Pinarello-Q36.5, Caja Rural-Seguros RGA) running special swap-out kits in July.
