Chapter 7: The Baroudeur with Ben Healy

A true breakaway specialist is a rider you must give the freedom to succeed—or fail.” - Tom Southam, EF Pro Cycling Sports Director. Chapter 7: The Baroudeur tells the story of Ben Healy, a tenacious, singular-minded athlete with a distinctive racing style. But he doesn’t just ride with verve and guts – he’s also precisely focused on the fine tuning that can enhance speed and performance. During the 2023 Giro, Ben customised his Pro Team TT Aero Suit, cutting the top of the number pouches to fashion nutrition pockets, creating a DIY outfit tailored to long days ahead of the peloton. His innovation galvanised the development of our Pro Team Breakaway Suit, crafted with Ben to produce the optimal suit for offensive bike racing.
