**Team Manzana Postobón ** () was a UCI Professional Continental cycling team based in Colombia. The team was founded in 2006, becoming a Continental team in 2007. In 2015, the team competed as a club, before returning to Continental status the following year. From 2017 until its disbanding in 2019 the team held Professional Continental status.

In 2016 the team had quality to finally jump up to the Pro Continental level for 2017, the first Colombian professional team in that level since Team Colombia cycling team in 2015.

On May 25, 2019, the team announced that it would fold with immediate effect after two doping cases had been announced.

Doping

In April 2019 the team terminated Wilmar Paredes’ contract after the UCI announced that he had tested positive for EPO.

In May 2019 Juan José Amador notified of an adverse analytical finding for the banned steroid, Boldenone an out-of-competition control held on 22 October 2018. According to UCI anti-doping regulation 7.12.1, the team will now be suspended for a period of between 15 and 45 days, to be decided by the UCI Disciplinary Commission, due to the team registering a second adverse analytical finding within a 12-month period.
