The official 2017 kit for the team is now officially finished and ready for display during the NC/WC section of the season. The team is ready to announce our full sponsor line up for next season too! The keen eyed will notice that Arrinera is no longer any part of the team and we thank them for the support they gave this season. Fablok will once more be name sponsor of the team, but recurring sponsor Bank BGZ is the main auctioneer of this upcoming season.

Under here there will feature a nation overlook of our sponsors and the areas they both explore. The Team will be Polish/Israeli mostly as this season and will use Ireland as our main secondary nation. The sponsor has returned with renewed strength and has allowed the team to go beyond our usual limits of nations to bring forth the strongest possible team. Feel free to leave a comment and rejoice that Fablok is back in the MG!

That's one good looking shirt I like how it interpolates elements from both your first and second year ones and blends them together creating one that feels unmistakably "Fablok" but is still original.

Great work, you haven't done too many jerseys either have you?

Very nice kit sgdanny. For my taste a bit too many sponsors, but the style of the jersey makes up for it.

Feels exactly like the sort of jersey Fablok should have, guess that's because of it being like the past two seasons combined. Very nice jersey!

Lets get on with it! Juraj Sagan won both the ITT and the Road Race in Slovakia. Giorgi Nareklishvilli did the same in his home country Georgia and recently Noam Cohen won the Israeli Road Race. Thus we present their 2017 NC kits!

Many will be surprised looking at this chart and so are we to be frank with you. Chris Froome just finished a fantastic season, but his wage does limit our options in making our team stronger, so if the right deal occurs, we will definitely look to see if we can improve our team that way. Nicolas Roche is old and Pawel Poljanski is a place holder and alternative for him, so we are open to offers on him aswell, but it is with some reluctance.

Nikolas Maes is beloved to our future plans, but his low wage makes him a good rider to be open for trading riders, but as said his low wage opens up an expansion in our cobbles department. So if we get our wanted cobbles leader, that might mean Maes is off the table. Other riders should be really clear though. Our plans for the transfer season involves finding a captain that can sprint and perhaps a new leader for our cobblers department. Exciting times are coming here and new talents can spice things up, so it will be very interesting

Fablok has decided that the plain green background color could have been improved on the 2017 kit, so we're proud to announce our final and complete 2017 kit!. It takes the best of two worlds, our early Fablok days and our just completed Arrinera stint have been combined to create this style. We have learned important lessons in both season and what better idea, than to use those two experiences as a bridge to something greater!

In other news the National Championships have just been sealed and scored 7 titles among the two categories, which is a great achievement considering our few nationalities and how big these NC's were. 2x up for 3 nations and sadly big target Goldstein took away our chance of taking the Israeli ITT. The latter is the only real disappointment, since the team does not plan to sign the TT specialist anyway. Now begins the fun with transfer and whatnot, so stay tuned for the final NC's and our hunting on the big Transfer list!
