Emanuele Bombini (born 2 July 1959 in San Ferdinando di Puglia) is an Italian former professional road cyclist and cycling team manager.[1]
After retiring from racing, Bombini developed the professional-team project that became Mecair–Ballan in January 1993. Working with Mecair owner Aurelio Messina, he built the team around former world champion Moreno Argentin and recruited young former Soviet riders Evgeni Berzin and Vladislav Bobrik. Gewiss replaced Mecair as title sponsor in 1994, when Berzin won the 1994 Giro d'Italia under Bombini's management.[2][3]
