It was founded in late 2011 and granted UCI Professional Continental status.[2] For its first season 2012 the team signed several ex-Шаблон:UCI team code riders along with a few ones from Continental Team Шаблон:UCI team code.

RusVelo initially included both men's and women's rosters. The directors are Viatcheslav Ekimov, Oleg Grishkin, Egon van Kessel from the Netherlands, and Australian Henk Vogels. The General Manager was Heiko Salzwedel.

In March 2022 the team's licence was revoked by the UCI following the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine.[3] On the same day bicycle manufacturer Look, and wheel provider Corima, both announced the cancellation of their sponsorship of the team.[4] Later that month, the team suspended its activities.[5]
