Based in Pinto, Spain, and sponsored by the Fundación Contador headed by Alberto Contador, it was launched in 2018 as a UCI Continental youth formation supporting the Trek-Segafredo team. In 2021, under the patronage of the new sponsor Eolo SpA, it acquired the UCI ProTeam license, and this season it was invited for the first time to the Giro d'Italia.

The team rides Aurum Magma bikes equipped with full ENVE components and SRAM groupset.
