2005 Professional Teams - Italy 2005 TEAMS Pro Team Frame Top Riders In this century that is dominated by sportbiz, professional sport, programming results, television technology, action replays that never lie, hi-defi nition images on plasma and LCD screens, cycling still manages to stand out, still manages to offer epic moments, moments that have the fl avour of those unforgettable sporting exploits in black and white. Effort, dedication, suffering, commitment, satisfaction - Bianchi and joy. Dozens of years have passed, but cycling is still all of that. Only those who have climbed up a Magnus Backstedt mountain on their bicycle can appreciate the effort, the passion, the commitment and the joy that one feels upon reaching the summit and pausing there a moment to enjoy one’s victory over oneself. - Caffi ta Cannondale Professional cyclists live for these emotions and transmit them to us in every event. Whether it be a stage race or a one-day classic, they are there to give their all in any situation, whatever the weather is like. They are generous sportspeople who never take it easy, who are never content with their achievements. Ceramica Panaria - Navigare Colnago Emanuele Sella Each competition is a chapter in itself where anything may happen.

Campagnolo® has been sharing these emotions with them for over 70 years. 70 years at their side to supply them top-performance components and wheels that are totally reliable. Performance that is never in doubt and must never be in doubt. Performance that provides them with maximum liberty of expression and scope for reading the race. Each component has been designed to work in perfect D. Di Luca harmony with the others, a perfect system that makes all movements easy and instinctive, which makes each action effective and any result possible.

The brake pads are made from a RecordTM class compound that ensures powerful but progressive braking even when the pads are worn. Tests in our laboratories have shown that the braking performance of these brakes is 50% better on dry surfaces and actually 60% better on wet surfaces than the performance of other similar brands on the market. These results are even more amazing when one considers that the brake pads wear out much more slowly and are much quieter than the products with which they were compared.

RecordTM 9s chain The XenonTM groupset uses the RecordTM 9s chain. It is made from the fi nest materials and incorporates the fi nest technology. The Ultra-DriveTM and Floating-Link-ActionTM geometry together with the geometry of the sprockets and

RecordTM Pro-Fit PlusTM NEW pedals RecordTM Pro-Fit PlusTM pedals successfully combine lightness, performance and comfort. Despite the relatively compact dimensions and reduced weight, the ergonomics are perfect so that even the longest rides are incredibly comfortable. The “circular” pedal stroke has been obtained thanks to a design that brings the foot as close as possible to the pedal axle. Pedal engagement and disengagement forces are independent. Disengagement force can thus be adapted to one’s style of pedaling. The axle of the RecordTM Pro- Fit PlusTM pedal turns on three bearings: two on the inside and one on the outside.
