Since 2008 Gilles Coustellier has won an impressive number of titles… In fact, he was won almost everything: three consecutive French Championship titles, three consecutive wins in the European Championship, two World Championship wins and a World Cup. We’ve learned from Koxx that this great champion, who despite a disappointing World Championship, has had another great season, will be continuing this fruitful collaboration. Gilles has signed a new contract with the market leaser and will be riding for them for the next five seasons. Gilles Coustellier took the opportunity to say “Thanks to the whole K-124 team for their dynamism and motivation in developing high tech performance kit”.
