For competitive cyclists, a smart team will search for any way possible to fight the wind during training and racing. And you can have the exact same pieces as you see on the pros. Not less expensive replicas, but the exact same pieces made using the same fabrics, components, fit and finish. Castelli is dedicated to making the fastest clothing in the world. We know that race results come through relentless attention to the smallest of details. So we approach every garment questioning how we can make it faster. We do the basic research, then we test the concepts internally, then we test them with professional athletes and in the wind tunnel. The Servizio Corse Custom Team booklet will help you decide which garments you need to help you achieve your racing goals.

OFF-SEASON, TIME FOR FOCUS AND BASE BUILDING The season is long: it extends from February to the middle of October. There are only three quiet months left for race-weary riders to enjoy the quiet company of their own breathing or 
the joking banter of a stress-free training ride. This is the time to put in the work to make next season your best yet.   VICTORIES ARE EARNED WHEN NO ONE IS WATCHING Victories are earned when no one is watching, and that means putting in the training no matter what weather you’re stuck with. Castelli’s singular goal is to make you faster. Our cold-weather collection lets you dress for any conditions, from extreme cold and rain right up till you’re back in your shorts and jersey next summer. The Best of Winter’16 is about never missing a day due to bad weather. Discover More: Castelli-cycling.com

Most overshoes are much of a muchness but the Nano’s have a few features that set them apart from the rest.

nano_smallThe lightweight, stretchy fabric is a much more supple than normal – you’re hardly aware you’re wearing them – and the polyurethane face is waterproof, unlike standard neoprene. Rain and spray can slowly soak in through the seam that joins the upper and lower sections – it’s not taped – but your feet will stay drier than normal in these. Even if water does get in, they still keep your feet reasonably warm, like most other overshoes.

You don’t get as much insulation as with thick neoprene, but the Nanos keep the wind off and allow your feet to heat up inside. There’s good coverage around the sole too with just small holes for your cleat and heel, and that makes a lot of difference. We’ve found them about right for autumn use and milder winter days, swapping to something more hardcore when the mercury dips below about 7°C.
