NEW: Tour de France 2023 Collection

01 Jun 2023

Special edition versions of three Lazer helmets get a Tour de France and Maillot Jaune inspired make-over. 

Le Tour de France – Once a local cycling event created to promote a French newspaper, now the most watched sport event, with 10-12 million spectators on-site and more than two billion others tuning in around the world. It’s a grueling competition where the best cyclists give it their all on their bikes in a battle for those infamous leader’s jerseys.  

Lazer’s long-standing presence on the heads of cyclists at the Tour de France is a big part of Lazer’s history, with the losses, learnings, and successes to show for it. As of 2023, Lazer is a proud official merchandise partner of Tour de France making it possible to introduce three new special edition helmets inspired by La Grande Boucle.  

More than a competition.

The Tour de France is not just for professional athletes. The chance to witness a piece of cycling history makes passionate hearts beat wildly and inspires a whole range of riders at all levels, be it serious racers, casual cyclists or even kids taking to two wheels for the first time.  

With this in mind, Lazer’s special edition Tour de France and Maillot Jaune collection fits all with a passion for cycling no matter the level. A collection created to unite fans in shared appreciation of the sport and inspire all to get on a bike in safety. After all, even the ones in the design-inspired leader’s jerseys started with a single pedal stroke. 

The 2023 Tour de France collection

Let’s get this show on the road!

Tempo KinetiCore , a comfortable entry-level helmet built for the recreational cyclist, gets a Tour de France make-over. 

The Tour de France edition plays with a mix of gloss and matte black coating to create a subtle but unique design. Topped off by the world-famous Tour de France logo, created by French designer Guenoun. 

And, what would the Tour be without the winner’s jerseys? 

Midway through the 1919 race, organizers made the decision to make the race leaders more visible resulting in the infamous yellow, green and polka dot jerseys that get a place on the rear of the helmet. 

Nutz KinetiCore , a protective and comfortable helmet for little ones graduating to first pedal bikes, is joining the Tour de France peloton. 

The Tour de France edition helmet gets a graphic update made up of a Tour de France logo on top and an animated peloton wearing green, yellow and polka dots jerseys. 

With this design even the youngest riders can get the feeling of riding in the peloton. 

Nutz KinetiCore, a protective and comfortable helmet for little ones graduating to first pedal bikes, is joining the Tour de France peloton. 

The 2023 Maillot Jaune helmet

The Maillot Jaune brand brings cyclists together around shared ambitions: elegant products, a passion for excellence and a subtle tribute to the history of the Tour de France. Tonic KinetiCore fits these ambitions by blending style and performance for cyclists of all levels. That’s why Tonic KinetiCore has been awarded the Maillot Jaune a.k.a. Yellow Jersey by getting a new design. 

The Maillot Jaune edition is an elegant black helmet … with a dash of yellow, of course. It features the Maillot Jaune logo, that can be interpreted as a bird’s eye view of a cyclist or an athlete with their arms raised in victory, on the side of the helmet and repeats the brand name on the top of the helmet.  

In short, it has everything you need to channel the legendary spirit of the Tour and to be the legend of your own ride, whatever your level, whatever your goals. 

Join the peloton and get yours at your local Lazer dealer or on the Tour de France’s official website, or in the Official Tour de France stores.

Tour de France 2023 route presentation - Gallery

Pogacar, Van Vleuten, Cavendish, Pidcock and more turn out in Paris to find out the routes for next July's races

The routes for the 2023 Tour de France and Tour de France Femmes were unveiled on Thursday afternoon, with race directors Christian Prudhomme and Marion Rousse unveiling the details of the July stage races.

Double Tour winner Tadej Pogačar and reigning Tour de France Femmes champion Annemiek van Vleuten were the headline stars in attendance at the event, which saw a number of big names head to Paris to find out what they will be tackling next summer.

The long ceremony began with riders walking along the stage, introduced by their accomplishments in the sport, followed by a series of speeches and video highlights of the 2022 races. The president of the Basque government, Iñigo Urkullu, also spoke, with his region hosting the men's Grand Départ with three stages.

After a long build-up, Prudhomme and Rousse unveiled the 2023 race routes. The Puy de Dôme, the mountainous route, and the paucity of time trialling made the headlines in the men's race, while the women are set to tackle the Col du Tourmalet for the first time before concluding their race with a 22km time trial in Pau.

Tour de France 2023 route revealed – mountainous profile, only 22km of time trialling and four summit finishes Tour de France Femmes 2023 route revealed - Iconic Tourmalet summit and time trial finale in Pau Pogacar gives resounding thumbs-up to Tour de France 2023 route Van Vleuten: Tour de France Femmes 2023 route 'an upgrade'

The route presentation took priority on the day despite the star names in attendance, with riders simply taking their seats for the presentation before speaking to the press to give their opinions on the parcours later on.

Alongside Pogačar and Van Vleuten sat Mark Cavendish , who is seeking a record-breaking 35th stage win at next year's race, and Marta Cavalli , who will be a co-leader at French squad FDJ-Suez-Futuroscope.

Cavendish said that there could be "seven or eight" sprint opportunities at the Tour, while noting that "I think the start is going to be the hardest I’ve seen in my career."

Pogačar, meanwhile, said that he liked the route , which is packed with climbing.

"It has a lot of climbing which I like," he said. "Particularly the first and third weeks. It's going to be fun. It's still a long while away but I'm sure it will be another great Tour and I'm excited for next July."

The women's parcours is "an upgrade" on the inaugural 2022 race, Van Vleuten concluded.

"Now with the time trial the course is more complete. So it is an upgrade," she said. "I'm not scared of those early stages, but they will be tricky, you need to stay focussed. It will be hard and sometimes hard to control, so I will also need my team."

Alpe d'Huez stage winner Tom Pidcock (Ineos Grenadiers) was also in attendance, as were French stars Juliette Labous (Team DSM) and David Gaudu (Groupama-FDJ), and former green jersey winner Michael Matthews (BikeExchange-Jayco).

Other major names there to watch the presentation included Audrey Cordon-Ragot (Trek-Segafredo), Valentin Madouas (Groupama-FDJ), Alexey Lutsenko (Astana Qazaqstan), Elise Chabbey (Canyon-SRAM), and Greg Van Avermaet (AG2R Citroën).

Tour de France Stage 7 Preview: All Eyes Back On The Sprinters

After two epic days in the in the mountains, the relatively flat Stage 7 will shift focus back on to the sprinters.

Stage 7 - Mont-de-Marsan to Bordeaux (169.9km) - Friday, July 7

This is one of the easiest stages of the Tour’s first week, with no challenges aside from the Category 4 Côte de Béguey. But at 38.9km from the finish line in Bordeaux, it should do little more than warm-up the riders’ legs for the finale.

The run-in to the finish line is technical, and there will be some tense moments as the peloton barrels into downtown Bordeaux. Some hard cornering between 4km- and 2km-to-go could make things dicey as the riders pass under and then sweep up and onto a bridge taking them over the Garonne River. But once they’re over the bridge and through a sweeping chicane on the other side, it’s a long, straight shot to the finish line on a riverside boulevard.

Jumbo-Visma should have no issues protecting Denmark’s Jonas Vingegaard, who took the yellow jersey after finishing second to Slovenia’s Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates) on Stage 6. And they’ll get lots of help: with a hilly stage on Saturday that looks perfect for a breakaway to go the distance and a summit finish on the famous Puy de Dôme on Sunday, this is possibly the sprinters’ last opportunity to win a stage before the Tour’s first rest day. So their teams will be willing to do the work necessary to control the front of the peloton–and after two days in which they were happy to drop off the back and ride in the grupetto, they’re fresh too.

The weather forecast calls for intense heat with highs in the 90s and a chance for thunderstorms in the afternoon, which could produce wet roads as the race heads into Bordeaux.

Riders to watch

Belgium’s Jasper Philipsen (Alpecin-Deceuninck) was untouchable in field sprints at the end of Stages 3 and 4 and there’s no reason to expect anything less at the end of Stage 7. He has the best lead-out man in the world right now–Dutchman Mathieu van der Poel–and a team fully committed to helping him win. And given how few stages remain for sprinters in this year’s Tour, a third stage win for the Belgian might put the green jersey out of anyone else’s reach.

All eyes will also be on Great Britain’s Mark Cavendish (Astana) and his quest to set a new record for the most stage wins in Tour history. Cav won a stage in Bordeaux back in 2010 and would love to make history by doubling-up thirteen years later.

When to Watch

Like Stage 4 earlier in the week, Stage 7 could be a bit of a snoozer as the GC contenders and their teams will be happy to ride a gentle tempo while the sprinters’ team do much of the heavy lifting. So tune-in around 11:00 a.m. EDT to watch the final 10km.

Since getting hooked on pro cycling while watching Lance Armstrong win the 1993 U.S. Pro Championship in Philadelphia, longtime Bicycling contributor Whit Yost has raced on Belgian cobbles, helped build a European pro team, and piloted that team from Malaysia to Mont Ventoux as an assistant director sportif. These days, he lives with his wife and son in Pennsylvania, spending his days serving as an assistant middle school principal and his nights playing Dungeons & Dragons.

Mark Cavendish speaks ...

“Carnage it was,” says the Astana rider. “Every team will have had a plan for that final and I bet there wasn’t any that it went right for, apart from Jumbo getting their guys into that narrow road [at the entrance to the race circuit] early. It was a melting pot of riders in the final and I was constantly analysing who was there, who had other teammates and just jumping from train to train.

“Finally I seen that Mads [Pedersen] had [Jasper] Stuyven with him and they usually go early so I thought I’d use that, but it didn’t happen. In the end the rest of them got the jump on me and it was all about me getting the best finishing position for myself.”

It’s a remarkable bit of analysis, considering the chaos that was unfolding around him. He goes on to express his concern for the welfare of his teammate Luis Leon Sanchez, who was one of several riders to hit the deck in the final couple of kilometres of today’s race.

Caleb Ewan (Lotto–Dstny)

Phil Bauhaus (Bahrain Victorious)

Bryan Coquard (Cofidis)

Mark Cavendish (Astana)

Jasper Philipsen speaks: “It was a really easy stage,” says the stage winner. “I think everyone was trying to save some legs for the Pyrenees tomorrow. In the final kilomtre entering the circuit I heard several crashes around me so I hope everybody is OK and safe. It was a bit of a hectic final with the turns and I lost my team as well but in the ifnal straight I found Mathieu Van der Poel again and he did an amazing pull to get me to victory. My legs were cramping and Caleb was coming close.”

It's another win for Jasper Philipsen!

In chaotic scenes with riders strewn all over the road in the home straight, Mathieu Van der Poel provides another perfect lead-out for Philipsen, who wins by half a wheel from Caleb Ewan. Phil Bauhaus was third for Bahrain Victorious.

Jasper Philipsen wins stage four!!!

The Alpecin–Deceuninck sprinter looks to have won his second consecutive stage by inches from Caleb Ewan.

1km to go: Cofidis are doing a fine job for Bryan Coquard as the riders enter the 800m-long home straight. There’s another crash but Mark Cavendish is still upright.

1.6km to go: Fabio Jakobsen crashes! he won’t be winning today!

3.1km to go: Jumbo-Visma lead the peloton into the entrance of the Nogaro circuit with various riders near the front looking over their shoulders to see where their team-mates are.

4.6km to go: It’s getting more and more technical and the riders from various teams are getting separated from each other and starting to panic a little. Mark Cavendish is still in a good position about 12 riders from the front but Wout van Aert has lost about 30 places.

5km to go: Aussie sprinter Sam Welsford (DSM-Firmenich) elects to go the “wrong” side of a traffic island and drops to near the back of the bunch, having been riding third wheel and in a brilliant position.

8km to go: Some of the teams are riding in train formation, while others are grouped around their sprinter. Mark Cavendish is in the second row of the bunch, riding on the wheel of his teammate Luis Leon Sanchez.

9km to go: The peloton is tightly bunched with riders from eight different teams spread out across the front as we hit the final 10 klilometres of the race. The focus, obviously, is on the sprinters but everybody has his own particular job to do to help deliver their man to the front of the race near the finish line at the most opportune moment.

13km to go: Here, in no particular order, are the names to look out for in the final couple of hundred metres of today’s stage: Dylan Groenewegen (Jayco AlUla), Fabio Jakobsen (Soudal- Quick Step), Jasper Philipsen (Alpecin-Deceuninck), Mark Cavendish (Astana), Phil Bauhaus (Bahrain Victorious), Wout van Aert (Jumbo Visma), Alexander Kristoff (Uno-X) and Sam Welsford (DSM-Firmenich).

17km to go: Having reeled in today’s somewhat half-hearted breakaway, the peloton continue to make their way towards the Nogaro racing circuit, where there’s something of a pinch-point at the entrance, three kilometres from the finish line. They’re riding seven abreast in the peloton at the moment at a speed of 57km per hour.

23km to go: The cycle in the washing machine has started and packed tightly across the road, the riders of Alpecin-Deceuninck, Jumbo Visma, Lotto Dstny, Bahrain Victorius and Bora-Hansgrohe are conspicous in their little groups near the front.

💚 70 years ago, the green jersey was first introduced on the Tour de France. The best sprinters in the history of cycling have fought for it since! 💚 Le maillot vert est né il y a 70 ans sur le Tour ! Depuis, les meilleurs sprinteurs du monde se sont battus pour. #TDF2023 pic.twitter.com/ioJyoMXY9e — Tour de France™ (@LeTour) July 4, 2023

27km to go: In the breakaway, Anthony Delaplace takes the solitary King of the Mountains point available on today’s stage. The gap to the bunch is down to 16 seconds.

28km to go: The riders are tackling today’s only categorised climb, the Cat 4 Cote de Dému, which is two kilometres long and 218m high.

3okm to go:

34km to go: Anthony Delapplace (Arkea Samsic) and Benoit Cosnefory (AG2R Citreon) remain in front of the chasing posse, with a lead of 35 seconds. At the back of that posses, Astana’s Luis Leon Sanchez has a problem with his chain and stops to fix the problem with the help of a passing Cofidis mechanic. He gets back on his back and sets off in pursuit of the bunch.

Peloton politics: “I’m fairly sure that back in the 80s and before, one of the grizzled elder statesmen of the Tour (think Bernard Hinault or Gilbert Duclos-Lasalle) would decide how hard the peloton would ride at any given point,” writes Thomas Atkins. “And if they decided that the peloton was going to have an easy day, then woe betide anyone who attacked and upped the tempo when they weren’t supposed to.”

“It might not be great for viewers and advertisers but it’s arguably no worse than it being dictated by directeurs sportives who have crunched the numbers before the start and decided on precisely the mix of riders who would be allowed to ride off the front until a controlled and entirely predictable catch in the last 20-30kms.”

39km to go: We’re heading towards the business end of the stage, with the entrance to the Nogaro motor racing circuit where today’s race will be concluded approximately three kilometres from the finish.

Here’s Fabio Jakobsen on today’s finish: “Today looks good,” he told Eurosport this morning. “You’ve got a few corners but it’s wide. The last 750m is in as straight line so if you have the horses and the position then you can do it and at least [unlike yesterday] a straight line is a straight line, eh?”

46km to go: “On this slow news day, in Tour de France terms at least, I was wondering what your thoughts were regarding Jasper Philipsen having the ultimate cheat-code for the sprints with Mathieu Van der Poel as lead-out man extraordinaire?” asks Sam Huscroft. “I wonder if Cav’s best bet is to tag on to this ‘train’ and give it the beans?”

I’m not sure that a 38-year-old Cav no longer has the “beans” required to get near Philipsen in an out-and-out sprint. In terms Tory MPs Lee Andrews and Brendan Clarke-Smith might struggle to understand, Philipsen’s beans are of the Heinz variety, compared to the own brand version Cav is reduced to giving these days. The gap is down to 36 seconds.

53km to go: Messrs Cosnefroy and Delaplace are a minute clear of the bunch, which is being led by the riders of Alpecin-Deceuninck at a speed of 57km per hour.

Intermediate sprint result

With so much going on out on the road, it’s taken a while to cobble together the result of the intermediate sprint.

1. Jasper Philipsen (20pts) 2. Bryan Coquard (17) 3. Caleb Ewan (15) 4. Mads Pedersen (13) 5. Jordi Meeus (11) 6. Mark Cavendish (10) 7. Favio Jakobsen (9) 8. Peter Sagan (8) 9. Alexander Kristoff (7) 10. Biniam Girmay (6) 11. Corbin Strong (5) 12. Michal Kwiatkowski (4) 13. Cees Bol (3) 14. Mathieu Van der Poel (2) 15. Jonas Abrahamsen (1)

69km to go: “Belgian TV have just been on the phone with Eddy Merckx,” writes Franky Vlaeminck. “Apparently he’s totally cool with Cavendish potentially beating his record number of wins.”

On Eurosport, former sprinter Robbie McEwan gives Cavendish a “one per cent chance” of winning the stage he needs to beat Merckx’s record during this Tour.

71 km to go: It’s a highlight of the afternoon for the riders as they pass through the feed zone and collete their musttes full of grub.

73km to go: “I’m having a laugh over people’s complaints about the lack of pace and attacks on today’s stage,” writes Dave Hill from Indiana. “These riders, the most extreme athletes in the world, whittle their bodies down to nubs over the course of 2,200 miles at speeds we couldn’t achieve in our dreams, and we’re complaining because they take a few hours to brace themselves for the trials to come? If nothing else, let’s just enjoy the scenery. Or get outside yourself on a ride today. Some people are never satisfied!”

It’s a fair point, well made. After all, some of these riders have spent two whole days whittling their bodies down to nubs in this year’s Tour since it started way, way back last Saturday. The gap is 50 seconds.

81km to go: In an interview with Eurosport, AG2R Citreon team manager Vincent Lavenu says that French TV were complaining that nothing is happening today and want to see some French riders at the head of the race, so he gave Benoit Cosnefroy permission to launch an attack.

His fellow Normandy native, Anthony Delaplace either agreed or was ordered to go with him, although the Arkea Samsic rider looked far less enthused by the prospect of embarking on what will almost certainly be little more than an energy-sapping kamikaze mission.

Finally, an attack!!!

84km to go: Benoit Cosnefroy (AG2R Citreon) and Anthony Delaplace (Arkea Samsic) throw their chapeaux into the ring for today’s combativity award by jumping off the front of the bunch and attacking. It’s Cosnefroy who is in the box-seat for the race number encased in perspex, as he went first before looking over his shoulder to see if anyone might join him. They quickly open a gap of a minute.

88km to go: More excitement! At the front of the bunch, Quinn Simmons puts the hammer down to lead out Mads Pedersen for the intermediate sprint but it’s yesterday’s stage winner Jasper Philipsen who takes maximum points.

92km to go: “Historically, the Tour has been a force for fairness, non-cheating and following the spirt of cycling,” writes Ruaidhrí Groom. “But is there a chance that the peloton are taking it handy today to hand the stage to Cavendish? He should refuse to win such a stage!”

I can’t remember off the top of my head who it was but sone of our readers suggested yesterday that, given the paucity of talent in Cavendish’s team when it comes to leading out their sprinter, it’s not inconceivable that at some point later in the race, assorted mates of his from various teams might go rogue in order to form a train to help him win one of the later stages, much like happened in Rome at the Giro. On that occasion, Geraint Thomas put in a big shift to help deliver Cav to where he needed to be on the final day.

96km to go: Tell Franky (102km to go) that I am 62, have been cycling since I took the stablisers off and I am still bored,” writes Jem Lee. “Been telling mates how exciting the Tour is and what a spectacle it always is – they will think I have lost the plot watching this. I think even I could keep up with them at this rate.”

There are faint signs of life in the peloton as assorted teams start to get their ducks in a row ahead of the intermediate sprint in approxiamtely eight kilometres.

97km to go: With more than half of the stage to go, nothing continues to happen at quite a sedate pace. Good luck to the jury who have to pick the most combative rider from today’s stage. I’ve seen far more aggressive efforts when the traffic lights outside Stockwell Tube station turn green during a morning rush hour.

Le tour de france.

A stage race

The Tour de France is the most prestigious stage race in the world. Broken down into 21 stages, it attracts the best riders in the world. Depending on their individual speciality (flat, sprint, mountain, etc.) they will vie for stage wins and the honour of wearing distinctive jerseys.

The distinctive jerseys

There are 4 distinctive jerseys:

The Tour de France is broken down into 21 stages of varying profiles. There are 4 main stage types:

22 teams made up of 8 riders compete in the Tour de France. These teams are part of the world's cycling elite. The riders selected by the sports director to take part in the race are generally the best riders in the team.

Riders can be classified according to their strong points:

There is usually a clear hierarchy between riders in a team: leader and team-mates.

Status can evolve from stage to stage: a sprinter could be a leader on a flat stage, but he could be a simple teammate on a mountain stage because he has no chance of winning. In the same way, a rider who is well placed in the overall rankings could become leader.

It's true that a rider must be on form if he wants to win the Tour, or a stage, but it is not always the strongest who comes out on top. He must adapt his strategy as the race evolves, and he must be able to manage moments of both strength and weakness. To make their mark on a Tour, the great champions have always displayed cunning and intelligence, above and beyond their physical prowess, in order to foil the plans of their rivals.

A 21ª e última etapa do Tour de France 2023, uma das provas de ciclismo de estrada mais famosas do mundo, realizada neste domingo, 23 de julho, no trecho entre Saint Quentin-en-Yvelines e Paris Champs-Élysées, teve o belga  Jordi Meeus como vencedor.

O ciclista da equipe BORA-hansgrohe concluiu os 115,5km de trecho plano da etapa com um tempo de 2h56min13s, liderando um pelotão de 63 ciclistas. Seu compatriota Jasper Philipsen (Alpecin-Deceuninck) foi o segundo colocado e Dylan Groenewegen (Team Jayco AlUla) ficou em terceiro.

Na classificação geral, Jonas Vingegaard (Jumbo-Visma) soube administrar sua grande vantagem e manteve a camisa amarela da liderança. Ele conquistou o bicampeonato da competição com um tempo total de 82h05min42s. Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates) foi o segundo, com 7min29s de diferença. O britânico Adam Yates (UAE Team Emirates) tem a terceira colocação com 10min56s atrás.

Philipsen foi o dono da camisa verde, que designa o campeão por pontos, com 377 pontos. Já o italiano Giulio Ciccone (Lidl-Trek) foi o melhor ciclista de montanha desta temporada.

A disputa pelo título da Grande Volta em 2023 esteve imperdível. Além de contar pontos para o ranking que determinará os classificados aos Jogos Olímpicos Paris 2024 , os últimos campeões despontaram como favoritos novamente, incluindo o colombiano Egan Bernal (campeão em 2019), o esloveno Tadej Pogacar (2020 e 2021) e o dinamarquês Jonas Vingegaard (2022).

Esta foi o segundo Grand Tour do ciclismo de estrada neste ano, que reúne as três principais competições da modalidade. Em maio, o esloveno Primož Roglič (Jumbo-Visma) conquistou o título do Giro d’Italia 2023. Agora, entre agosto e setembro, ocorre a Volta à Espanha .
