“The Intelligentsia Cup is homegrown in Chicago just like SRAM,” said founding partner Tom Schuler. “The SRAM Chicago Criterium on west Fulton Street on July 26 is sure to be an exciting day of bike racing in the heart of Chicago’s near west side. Thank you to all the dedicated folks at SRAM for supporting the Intelligentsia Cup from the beginning.”

As part of its sponsorship SRAM will continue to provide its excellent Neutral Race Support service for the entire series, giving all racers – regardless of their component choice – neutral wheels, mechanical support and even complete bikes to stay in the race.
