Reserve your baggicase on September 6th at 5:00 PM through Crowdfunding. Jaime Rosón.
Those of you who follow the project know that Jaime was the first professional cyclist to say yes to the Baggicase test . In fact, he agreed without even seeing it because the first prototype didn't even exist yet. I explained the project to him, and he liked the idea and showed his support from the start. Therefore, the relationship with the Caja Rural Seguros RGA star and Movistar Team's newest signing for the next two seasons is very special.

In his own words: "I'm really happy with the case. I thought it was going to be too hot, but I'm very happy with it. It's definitely worth having. It doesn't make me feel hot, and rainwater doesn't get through. It's the best way to protect your phone from the harsh conditions we're exposed to every day."
What more can we say? Thanks, Jaime! Good luck on this tour. We know you're coming in with confidence . This year's results and your participation in La Vuelta 2016 are your guarantee. So , go for it! We at Baggicase will be screaming behind the TV to cheer you on.
Carlos Verona.
A professional cyclist in the UCI World Tour since 2013 , he was just 21 years old . Who doesn't know this cycling and communications genius?
At 24 years old, he has already completed 2 Vuelta a España and 2 Giro d'Italia, no small feat!

When we asked Carlos if he'd like to be part of the Baggicase testing team, he didn't hesitate. "Sure! Send me one and I'll try it out." We immediately sent it to him, and after testing it in the harsh weather conditions where he lives in Andorra , he told us , "The Baggicase works like a charm. I've tried it on rainy days and my iPhone stays dry, just like when I leave the house."
We're proud to have your help and support. We wish you a fantastic participation in this year's La Vuelta. We know you'll enjoy every moment, because you truly enjoy your job . Go for it, champion!
Omar Fraile.
We've known for a while that Omar likes to prepare for the Vuelta while concentrating on Navacerrada . At Baggicase, we were clear from the start that once we had the prototype, we had to offer him a test . Our calculations were right; Omar will be preparing for the Vuelta in July, and by then we'll have the prototype ready to deliver to him. Well, that's how it was. We contacted him, and he didn't hesitate either. "Sure, as soon as I'm in Navacerrada, I'll let you know, and we'll see each other ." Great! He said yes.

There we were on the agreed-upon day and time. We delivered the prototype, chatted over coffee, and everything went perfectly. He was a very friendly and approachable guy. It's a pleasure to chat with people like that.
After a few kilometers testing the baggicase, he told us, "I've trained quite a bit with it and I'm super happy." Wow! Another satisfied tester.
As you all know, Omar has managed to win the Grand Prix de la Montagne jersey in the last two editions of the Vuelta a España—no small feat! His fight and dedication have moved us cycling fans like no other, so he's a very special person. This year, he also took a stage win at the Giro . What more can we tell you?
Omar, have a great time on your bike, because it makes us enjoy watching you . Let's go!
Jose Joaquin Rojas.
There's little we can say about someone who has ridden six Tours de France , three Giro d'Italia , and three Vuelta a Espanas . He's a tireless rider ; few give their all for their team and their leaders like he does. A true example of struggle and sacrifice. Much loved and respected in the peloton for his hard work and good sense of humor.
When we asked José Joaquín if he wanted to try baggicase with the goal of creating the best possible product, he said, " Sure, send it to me, I'll try it and let you know."

Few cyclists in the peloton are capable of spending a high mountain stage helping Alejandro or Nairo, of helping the team on a day of fans , of passing perfectly on cobblestones , sprinting , etc. His team is one of those prepared to win grand tours and his work is gold .
We're sure you'll be a fixture on TV leading the pack, and we on TV will be so proud to see you and know you're wearing one of our covers. Best of luck, and thanks for your help, Jose Joaquín!
Ivan Cortina.
After a brilliant start to the season racing the northern classics, a terrain until recently absent from Spanish riders with any chance of victory, he approaches his first major with great enthusiasm. Unlike most Spanish riders, he doesn't shy away from long cobbled straights, dust, or pavé ; in fact, they are his natural terrain.
When we contacted him about testing it, he said , "Sure, I'd be happy to try it out and give you my opinion." After trying it, he told us, "It's great, the perfect size, and very comfortable."
We know this return is a dream come true for you. Enjoy it and, as always, give it your all for your team; you mean so much to them . Come on, Ivan!!!

As you can imagine, a year ago we were just a small team with an idea and a lot of enthusiasm, it's a real honor for us. We'll enjoy watching them work every day, while we too will continue working to ensure everything goes perfectly on September 6th at 5:00 PM, which is when crowdfunding begins and when you can reserve your Baggicase.
