The Giro d'Italia is one of the most prestigious and demanding races on the world cycling scene, and the VF Group Bardiani-CSF Faizanè Team comes to the start with a clear objective: to leave its mark with stage victories and a solid performance in the general ranking.
In its 42nd participation, the Green Team races with eight athletes ready to challenge the Italian roads, including dizzying climbs and breathtaking sprints. Among these, the name of Domenico Pozzovivo stands out, the captain designated to lead the team towards the coveted general classification.
But it's not just the toughness and determination of the athletes that makes the news; it is the choice of the bike set-up, and the F20C s.i. saddle captures attention. Our short saddle, innovative and without padding, was chosen for its unique characteristics that perfectly match the needs of runners.
Domenico Pozzovivo describes it as an extension of the body, capable of guaranteeing constant comfort and performance, thanks to the ideal width for ischial support and freedom of movement in different cycling situations. The reduced weight is another crucial factor for an athlete who has to face the long and steep climbs of the Giro. The F20C s.i., in fact, weighs 155 g thanks to a high modulus unidirectional carbon fiber frame. This material, in addition to reducing the overall weight of the saddle, is very resistant and allows for a smoother ride.
Giulio Pellizzari, young promise and prospect of the team, praises the saddle for its ergonomic design which seems modeled on his body, and for the lightness which is fundamental for a climber. The F20C s.i. proves to be the perfect ally for those that, like Pellizzari, demand maximum performance and support. The nylon 12 carbon reinforced shell saves weight and offers greater rigidity making the F20C s.i. one of our most responsive saddles.
The Giro d'Italia route will test the athletes with countless kilometers and challenging climbs, but the F20C s.i. saddle is ready to prove worth. Developed and tested in collaboration with the Green Team riders, this saddle promises to be a key factor in their success.
With such a revolutionary saddle, Team VF Group Bardiani-CSF Faizanè is ready to write a new chapter in the history of the Giro d'Italia. Good luck guys! Your journey will be long and full of challenges, but with the F20C s.i., you start one step ahead.
