Peekaboo, what’s that I see, a GABBA jersey?

When do you really know that a product is REALLY good. Well for us the ultimate endorsement is when a Pro pays to use a non-sponsored product or other brands start copying you.

The weather for Stage 3 of Volta a Catalunya (2012) was shocking with rain, sleet, snow and cold temperatures. Perfect condition for wearing the Gabba.

On a dry day, the FLUIDO NANOFLEX WIND BIBTIGHT is a technical wonder—wind-protection, minimum seams, warm, stretchy and breathable. But when it starts to rain, the real magic kicks in.

PAVE BIBTIGHT
Living in Vancouver I’ve been looking for a bib tight suitable for my wet, rainy winters. So far the search has been fruitless unless I wanted to pull on a pair of waterproof rain pants over my tights. I’ll admit my ego would rather I got wet than be seen riding around in baggy rain pants. Then I caught sight of Castelli’s Pave Bibs and started bugging them for a review pair.
