Vanderkitten-Focus Pro Women’s Cycling Team took advantage this past weekend of the sunny Californian winter with a special pre-season bike and KASK Helmets pre-fitting session in Mountain View, CA.

After a gruelling morning training ride taking in climbing roads featured in recent editions of the Amgen Tour of California, our US based VK athletes met with Vanderkitten-Focus staff and management to dial in their equipment for the impending season.

Critical to the session was the introduction of riders to the KASK 2012 range of helmets. Riders were able to try on various iterations of the Vertigo, Mojito, K-10 and K-31 Chrono helmets.

Vanderkitten is well known as a premium athletic brand, hence the alignment with KASK, but the importance of optimum safety whilst training is also something that the VK riders preach and practice. Whenever our riders are travelling across the USA to an International race, we make sure we align with schools and emergency services in host cities, so we can spread the word about bike safety. The fact that in 2012 we now utilize the most cutting edge designs in safety is paramount to the Vanderkitten message, and this weekend reinforced how lucky we are to be riding the best helmets in the world!

Now our athletes have the perfect fit for comfortable, stylish riding, our 2012 Vanderkitten-Focus jersey design will be matched precisely to the KASK in house template. This means our upstart Pro Women’s team will have access to the same premium technology and design featured in the KASK  Helmets of UCI ProTour studs Team SKY.
