The double stage winner at the Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift rides a special-livery Tarmac with some personal touches.

Lorena Wiebes’ 2025 Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift got off to a flying start. Racing aboard her crisp white Specialized S-Works Tarmac SL8 – the same frame she rode to third at Paris-Roubaix – the European champion has grabbed hold of the green jersey that had previously eluded her.
The European champion is leading the sprint points classification after four stages, even as she earlier insisted she wasn’t chasing green. But whether she meant it or not, the battle with Marianne Vos is on, as the two Dutch sprinters race for every intermediate point.
Vos and Wiebes aren’t hunting green … at least so they say
Both riders are actively chasing intermediate points, but mostly so the other doesn’t walk away with them.
Despite being the best sprinter in the women’s peloton, the green jersey at the Tour has slipped through Wiebes’ fingers. She won the Grand Depart on the Champs-Élysées in 2022 but abandoned before stage 7, and Vos took the points title. In 2023, Wiebes won stage 3, but it was teammate Lotte Kopecky who finished the race in green and second overall. Last year, neither Wiebes nor Vos won a stage, but Vos still claimed the jersey with a dominant lead.
Now, things have changed. Kopecky stepped back from GC contention, SD Worx-Protime threw more weight behind Wiebes, and the looser, happier Wiebes has seemingly raced without pressure, and with at least some team support for the green.
We managed to catch a closer look at the 26-year-old Dutch rider’s setup before Stage 4, where Wiebes sprinted first over the finish line for the second day in a row and retained her hold on the green jersey.
