Bardiani-CSF 7 Saber cycling team status
Overview
In mid-October 2026, the Bardiani-CSF 7 Saber cycling team announced its rosters for several upcoming Italian races, including the Giro del Veneto, the Serenissima Gravel, and the Veneto Classic.
By late October, the team faced significant uncertainty. Manager Bruno Reverberi expressed pessimism regarding the future of the team and professional cycling, stating that the team is considering closing within two years. Reverberi criticized the UCI points system as “incompetent,” arguing that it discourages aggressive racing styles and makes securing sponsorship difficult. Due to these challenges, the team has reportedly offered new riders only one-year contracts.
