With more and more people choosing to take up cycling for pleasure, there is an ever-growing need for people to be able to transport their bikes safely and securely when heading off on cycling trips. This has naturally coincided with more people seeking active holidays.
There’s more to finding yourself the perfect cycling route than trial and error. Several factors come together to shape the route you choose. Some of this can of course come from word of mouth or reviews of routes online – cyclists are never shy of sharing opinions – but there are also some key considerations to weigh up when trying to find your perfect bicycle route.
The UCI – Santini – Decathlon partnership launched in 2021 with a collection of UCI World Championships cycling wear and accessories is being expanded in 2022 to include a global distribution agreement of the New Rainbow Collection: a growth trajectory driven by a new direct contract with the Decathlon Group and presence in its French, German, Italian, Hungarian and Spanish stores.
Santini presents its new collection dedicated to the iconic Ardennes Classic, La Flèche Wallonne.

Santini Paris-Roubaix Collection 2022: Santini is celebrating the Paris-Roubaix, one of the five Great Classics, with two special collections. One collection contains a jersey and a technical t-shirt, for both men and women, inspired by the colors and patterns used to mark out the cobblestone sectors along the route. The L’Enfer du Nord capsule collection, however, features fiery colors in a nod to the Hell of the North. The jerseys and technical t-shirts of both collections are combined with bibshorts, baselayer, jacket, vest, and accessories.
Greg LeMond unveiled the LeMond 8 concept road bike. It’s US-made, and the producer claims it represents the biggest development in carbon fiber frames in 30 years!

Santini Paris-Nice capsule collection has been unveiled, and it is a vibrant homage to the Cote d’Azur city where the elite pro stage race finishes: from the Promenade des Anglais to the blue of the sea that laps the beaches of Nice. An elegant, sophisticated look!
