When Johan Van Summeren and Fabian Cancellara staged their famous pursuit match in the final kilometers of Paris-Roubaix on a hot, dusty, dry April day in Hell, the Belgian had something special on his side against the Swiss powerhouse – a critical piece of kit that might have been the difference between sweet cobble kissing victory and a late catch by the dominant force on the pave this spring – the Castelli Sanremo Speedsuit.

It’s a heady claim, but Castelli’s ingeniously designed short/jersey combo slash skinsuit is claimed to save a rider significant time: 10-15 watts at 40 km/h. With a rapidly emptying rear tire, following a huge effort in the break, Van Summeren was certainly not hindered by his choice of clothing on the day.

Oh yeah let’s cross again like we did last Winter. Oh yes – it’s what all cyclo-cross devotees have been waiting for all year – time to dust off those cowbells – you’ve been prepping your cross bike, starting cross training clinics already and are probably now raring to go!

Matching with your new custom Castelli Cyclo-cross Suit, the new cyclo-cross glove will complete your kit for the season ahead.
