Campy 75th Anniversary Jersey

Campagnolo produced 75 gorgeous jerseys in 2008 to celebrate their 75th anniversary. They weren't available for purchase, but were instead selectively given away. Well, jersey #09 has appeared on ebay. It's pretty amazing and if I were a gazillionaire, I might think about buying it for a second before realizing how absurd it would be to drop nearly $3k on a jersey.

Absolutely amazing none-the-less though...

WAT.

I can't tell if this makes me want to cry tears of sadness or joy. Either way, crazy!

Campagnolo Icons Shirt

The newest shirt from Gage & DeSoto is a reference to the obscure icons Campagnolo used in the 80's and 90's to refer to the different components they made. I love it, it's like a little piece of insider knowledge turned into a shirt. Get it here.

Each icon is explained here.

Campagnolo in Print

This looks like it will be one hell of a book! I don't even ride Campy and I'd still like it. "Campagnolo has compiled more pro cycling victories than any other brand, and the roster of greats that has ridden their components to championships is legend. Campagnolo: 75 Years of Cycling Passion celebrates this legacy with rich text by historians Paolo Facchinetti and Guido Rubino and spectacular color photography. Drawing on unprecedented access to company archives, Campagnolo: 75 Years of Cycling Passion covers everything from the first quick-release to the newest 11-speed Super Record."

Coming soon to Prendas Ciclismo (and probably to other bookshops/bikeshops).
