The 2024 Giro d'Italia features some of the toughest climbs in cycling, with riders conquering 44,550 metres over 21 days in the Alps and Dolomites. This challenge will push cyclists to their limits, making it a must-watch event for fans and athletes alike. Are you prepared to elevate your climbing skills to new heights?

To improve your climbing, focus on increasing your power-to-weight ratio, which is your power output (watts) divided by your weight (kgs). To achieve this, you can enhance your strength, optimise your equipment, refine your technique, and lose some weight.


Here are some cost-effective ways to make your current bike lighter:
– Swap to carbon wheels.
– Opt for lightweight, faster-rolling tyres.
– Consider a carbon stem, handlebar, and seat post.
– Remove unnecessary accessories and spares.

Remember, the key is to find the right balance between weight and power. Losing too much weight can result in a loss of power, so it's essential to make informed decisions about your equipment.
