Cyclocross is a hardcore pursuit, a test of wintertime toughness that builds skills and stamina while you have a muddy good time. But a good cyclocrosser is more than just a one-trick race pony—it’s the most versatile road bike you could own.

The Nova Pro is a new for ’08 model, borrowing the Supernova’s carbon/aluminum chassis with its ride-supple rear and torsionally rigid front that makes the most of your sprinting power and out-of-the-saddle scoot. Same classic ’cross geometry that lets you ride through stuff where the other guys run, plus the versatility to mount fenders and a rack for post-season urban assaults and fast-paced commuting.

This is old school race stuff laced with high-tech inspiration, built to ride fast.
