Redchilli Sponsorship

Genevieve Whitson is a NZ born, Elite Level British cyclist based in Edinburgh, Scotland and has been a Redchilli brand ambassador for 4 years. Gen is a three-time Scottish National Road Race Series Champion and has raced at the highest level for Road, Cyclocross and MTB. She has competed in 4 World Championships, multiple World Cups and many of the major UCI European road races. Gen has literally raced all around the globe on the road bike.

Genevieve says: “FR2 is the perfect race machine to tackle the Belgian Pavé. Without doubt, the best bike I have ever raced on.”

The 2019 season will be my second (and final year) of the junior category. 2018 has given me a great deal of experience in road races against senior riders and over far greater distances than previously as a youth rider. Through this I have achieved my Primary goal for the season of reaching a 2nd Cat Racing License for the coming season.

Rowan says: “FR2 is suited to all situations, especially in racing. It is a bike designed to make you go fast. I love it.”

2018 was all about finding my legs again due to a long-term injury during 2017 and so I made the step back from Cat 1 to Cat 2. Mid-way through the season, however, I found myself being in the moves that contest the finish of the races, so 2018 has been nothing but positive. The season has been made all the better by riding the Redchilli FR2. Very much looking forward to 2019.

Stephen says: “Never have I had a bike that feels so comfortable and fast at the same time. I’ve rode a lot of big brand name bikes and none of them compare to the responsiveness of the FR2. A true, pro level bike.”

2018 was a bad season for me from illness to injury. Crashed out of the RAS on stage 5 and season was over really from there. Back fully fit now and focused for 2019. Ras Mumhan at Easter is the early goal for myself and the team.

Declan says: “Quite simply the best bike I’ve ever ridden. The FR2 is a dream to ride. Time to look outside the box people.”

Despite 2018 being a challenging season due to injury, I was delighted to win the National Duathlon Junior Championships. For 2019, I will be competing in the British Junior Super Series’ Triathlon events and will be aiming for selection to the ITU European Cup and other International races. And of course, I’ll look to defend my National Duathlon title.

Almi says: “What a stunning bike FR1 is. It is fast, light, comfortable and super responsive. Amazing how many favourable comments it has from other riders, too! I love my Chilli.”

Redchilli Bikes are delighted to be working with Reece Barr as our “motorsport” ambassador. A rising star in the world of motor sport, 2019 will be another exciting year working with Reece, which will see him racing for Förch Racing in their Porsche GT3 Carrera Cup car. As part of his regimental training regime, Reece rides a Redchilli FR1 and this very Bike is often on display at most of the major race tracks across the UK and Europe when Reece is racing.

Reece says: “The bike is amazing and is great fun to ride. Really helps me progress with my training.”
