Vlad Dascalu is the biker of the moment. Dario Rodriguez, the manager of the Spanish Brujulabike team, has bet on him and time is giving him full reason. Leaving aside the "ordinary" races, it’s enough to remember that in the first two races of the World Cup - Albstadt and Nove Mesto - the Romanian champion obtained the second and first place among the Under 23. He currently wears the Cup leader's jersey.

In Nove Mesto Dascalu began a thrilling neck and neck duel with the Swiss Colombo, that ended in the last few pedal strokes in favour of the Romanian rider. Bronze for Andreasse, then Nordemann, Culell Estape, Finchman, Blevins, Brandl, Roth and Lindberg. In Nove Mesto Dascalu began a thrilling neck and neck duel with the Swiss Colombo, that ended in the last few pedal strokes in favour of the Romanian rider.

Starting from this year Selle Repente is official sponsor of the Brujulabike Racing Team. The Italian company provides the athletes of the team with the top-of-the-range saddles Aleena (used by Dascalu and Marinheiro) and Comptus (Tanovic). These are full carbon padded saddles with the extraordinary weight of 130 grams, and the RLS technology for the interchangeability of the covers.
