SILCA shows support for Breast Cancer Awareness Month

During the month of October, SILCA is donating €5 per Nastro Cuscino Hot pink & Black bicycle tape sold, to the Susan G. Komen Foundation to show its support for Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Nastro Cuscino Bar Tape is designed to help cyclists through cobbles, gravel, CX rain and indoor conditions. The Tri-Laminate 3.75 mm thick tape  provides cushioning and comfort equivalent to 5 mm of traditional bar tape foam. Additionally, its medium-high tackiness, and printed silicone graphics adds comfort and grip in both wet and dusty conditions.

Susan G. Komen Foundation:

To date, the non profit has invested more than $2.9 billion in  research, community health outreach, advocacy and programs in more than 60 countries and has helped to reduce deaths from breast cancer by 40 percent between 1989-2016.

In addition, manufacturing brand LEM Helmets has also shown support for Breast Cancer Awareness Month as it has introduced two new limited edition Team BePink cycling helmets. The breast cancer awareness collection is inspired by LEM’s partnership with Italian-based UCI pro women’s cycling Team BePink. The company will be donating 10-percent of all sales of these two helmets to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation (BCRF).
