Castelli Diluvio Shoe Covers — Reviewed

Posted in Cycling Apparel Info., Cycling Information, Product Reviews, tagged , , on March 4, 2010 | Leave a Comment »

A ride with cold feet isn’t a good ride. It doesn’t matter if your legs are sweating, you’re wearing 2 layers too much on the top, and your head is wet with sweat from a balaclava — cold fee ruin the ride. Ruin it! It seems like hardcore winter cyclist have their very own “custom made” shoe cover that might include Duct Tape, maybe plastic baggies, chemical toe warmers, or maybe a combination of toe warmers with shoe covers.

The Assos FI.13 S5 bib shorts are not just another pair of shorts you wear on your bike, they are the ultimate, uncompromising technological leader in cycling apparel. Now you may be thinking, considering the price tag they better be. And you may ask yourself, are they really worth it? I know I asked this same question. Well, the past few months I have finally had the privilege of riding a new pair of FI.13 S5 bib shorts, and I am a believer. You know they are special from the moment you remove them from their conspicuously extravagant packaging.

Assos Intermediate EVO Jersey Review

Posted in Product Reviews, tagged , , , on November 27, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

The Intermediate EVO Jersey is like any other piece of Assos apparel — it’s made specifically for being in the ‘cycling position’ and made to last for years of riding. At first glance the Intermediate EVO looks half-jacket, half-jersey. The half-jacket look comes from the construction of the jacket’s core, which is made from Assos AirBlock799 fabric to ensure that no wind penetrates it and makes it to your skin.
