Sunday trading: Castelli Spring wear, Oakley helmets, Vittoria Corsa tires, and Brooks saddles

Vittori’s Corsa range has earned a reputation as some of the fastest rubber going. Highly engineered, they uniquely feature a graphene layer and have a 320 TPI casing. The result is a speedy and supple race tyre with classy tan sidewalls.

RoS stands for Rain or Shine and attests to the versatility of this line in Castelli’s range. Highly breathable, you won’t feel clammy out riding on a dry day, but should the weather take a turn for the worse, there’s sufficient water protection to keep you feeling comfortable.

For long descents or cooler mornings, a cycling vest is a great way of incorporating a bit of extra insulation that can be easily packed away should the conditions warm up. With a water repellent finish, the Elemento isn’t perturbed by a little shower.

The MIPS technology significantly reduces rotational motion imparted to the brain in the event of a crash, making for a much safer helmet. A Boa dial is used for the retention system, providing a secure fit, while the vents are specifically designed to work well with Oakley sunglasses.

With disc brakes, thru axles and tubeless ready, this is a wheelset designed for a modern bike. Unlike most wheelsets, these come with tyres already mounted, making it much quicker to get them up and rolling.

Available in either a disc brake, thru axle and tubless ready version, or a traditional rim brake quick release clincher guise, these deep section carbon wheels provide a significant aero boost over shallower rims.

Founded in 1866, this British company surely knows a thing or two about making saddles. Although Brooks built its reputation with leather saddles, the synthetic Cambium range provides a perch that’s ready for all conditions – not absorbing water and with no break-in period required.
