    Kiwi cyclist Lewis Bower has the chance to thrust himself into the global spotlight after being promoted to Groupama FDJ's World Tour squad


    The 20-year-old has won multiple stages of under-23 European events - helping him jump from the development squad to the team's elite group for the next two years.

    Bower now has a couple of weeks to put his feet up, having just finished the Under-23 Giro'd'Italia - his last event with the junior outfit.
