The world track cycling medallist Jesse Sergent is the latest New Zealand rider to secure a Pro Tour contract.
The 22-year-old from Feilding has landed a contract with Lance Armstrong's Team Radioshack after competing for the past two years for its Trek-Livestrong Under-23 team.
He becomes the fifth New Zealander currently riding for a major team, including fellow Commonwealth Games track team-mate Sam Bewley at Radioshack, Julian Dean (Garmin-Transitions), Greg Henderson (Team Sky) and Hayden Roulston (HTC Colombia).
