One year later, he joined professional cycling team Bretagne-Schuller.[3] The 2010 edition of the Route bretonne became his first professional victory. He also won the thirth stage of the Coupe des nations Ville Saguenay, a race he won the previous year as an amateur, and the thirth stage of Kreiz Breizh Elites, becoming overall winner of the latter.[4]
In both 2011 en 2012 Johan Le Bon emerged as French U23 Time Trial Champion.[5]
In 2013 Le Bon moved to World Tour team FDJ. In the important three-day stage races of West Flanders and De Panne, Le Bon came in fifth and fourth, respectively. He gained his first podium spot with FDJ by finishing second in the Tour of Léon.[6] Later that year, Le Bon debuted in a Grand Tour when he took part in the Giro d'Italia.
In 2014, he participated in the Paris–Roubaix and Omloop Het Nieuwsblad cycling classics. He again took part in the Giro d'Italia, and also finished the Vuelta a España.
His biggest victory for the time being came in 2015, when he won the fifth stage of the Eneco Tour.[7]
