The weeks leading up to the holiday season are always hectic for teams. The days pass quickly between collections to be scheduled and material to be delivered, especially if we are faced with the entry of new technical partners. Staying on topic, for the Bardiani-CSF Faizanè (which from January 1st will change its name to Green Project Bardiani-CSF Faizanè) 2023 is shaping up to be a truly important year. From next year the team directed by Bruno and Roberto Reverberi will race on bicycles From RosaWe are talking about the Merak and SK Pininfarina models. While the technical supplier of the bicycle changes, the saddle partner remains confirmed, which for the third year will be SMP saddles.
In recent days, the Casalserugo-based company in the province of Padua has renewed its partnership with the team led by Roberto Reverberi for another two years.
Common goals
The shared goals that the two sides want to achieve are undoubtedly the foundation of a collaboration that has already lasted three years and is set to continue at least until the end of 2024. Maurizio and Franco Schiavon, brothers and owners of the Selle SMP company, confirm this..
"When a partnership is based on mutual respect and a shared goal," they say, "the goal is already achieved. But to maintain those high goals, you must always push forward with conviction and an eye to the future. We confidently renew our collaboration with Bardiani-CSF Faizanè, because our company has embraced the values of cycling: sacrifice, hard work, dedication, resilience, honesty, and fairness. If even one of these values is missing, you can't win."
The company's words are followed by those of the team through team manager Roberto Reverberi.
"We're delighted," he says, "that Selle SMP is continuing this partnership for the 2023-2024 seasons. All the athletes on the 2022 roster have used their products and are very happy with them. We've implemented a major sporting revolution by adding seven new young athletes to our team. The revolution has also occurred in terms of technical sponsors, with the arrival of De Rosa. Selle SMP remains an excellent constant in this change, we have always found them goodWe believe we have assembled a competitive team, and we hope to achieve great results together with our partners. The 2023 season will be crucial for us. A special thanks to the Schiavon family for their constant and fruitful collaboration."
Wide availability
As in the past, the Green Project Bardiani-CSF Faizanè athletes will be supported throughout the season by the Selle SMP staff with the specific goal of finding the ideal saddle right from the start. The models available to the team will be the following: Composit, Evolution, F20/F20C, F30C, VT20/VT20C e VT30C.
Some of the athletes on the team last season have shared their impressions of the models they've just tested. In some cases, this confirms their positive feedback.
Filippo Fiorelli he chose the VT20C model: «I wanted to try this saddle – he declares – because it is more padded and comfortable, I have felt several benefits these days, at first glance it is really excellent, I thank Selle SMP who guided me in my choice".
Luca Covili, opted for the Composit model: «2023 – he confirms – will be the third consecutive year with this saddle. I chose it right away because I had already used it when I was under 23 when I ran at Palazzago and I was happy with it right away. When they asked me which one I wanted to use, I had no doubts."
Samuel Zoccarato, Italian champion gravel, instead chose the VT30C model: «A short saddle that helps you stretch out on the bike and has no uncomfortable spots on the front when riding low..For my physical build it is ideal."
