He showed his potential by finishing second at the Norwegian road race championships this year, after having won the event last year, aged just 20.
He said he cannot wait to get started. “I am really looking forward to be part of DiData. It’s going to be really exciting and I am really grateful for this opportunity,” he said.
“My big goal for 2019 is to continue developing as a rider and of course, to do my job as well as possible for the team.
“I’ll try to take the opportunities that I get in races and to do my best.”
Tiller added that he was looking forward to racing alongside his renowned compatriot Edvald Boasson Hagen.
“Edvald has been a role model for me over a number of years, so it will be cool to learn from him.
“He has huge amount of experience, so I’m looking forward to seeking his advice as I take my first steps in the WorldTour.”
