The Castelli Superleggera Bibshort is designed for the hottest conditions and is the latest iteration in Castellis quest to build the most lightweight bibshort. Castelli has been developing lightweight bibshorts since 2011, but when designing the Superleggera Bibshort Castelli went back to the drawing board to rethink every aspect of the shorts design. Castelli decided that what the short needs to do is hold the seat pad securely in place while adding as little weight as possible and retaining durability. The solution was to engineer a brand-new fabric that is woven rather a knit, saving 30% in weight for the same level of support. Castelli also worked with a world leading mill to create a graded fabric that becomes increasingly lighter the further down the leg it extends. At the lightest point, this fabric weighs 90g/m2 compared to normal short fabric which weighs roughly 220g/m2. The result of these new technologies is a bibshort that weighs an incredibly light 141g in size large. The fabric construction saves weight, but it really comes into its own when riding hard in hot conditions as it absorbs 30% less moisture compared to normal short fabric. This means that while the fabric saves 48g in weight when dry, it saves closer to 150g when youre sweating your way up Cols and pushing yourself to your absolute limit. Key Features Premium lightweight short for hot weather Gradient stretch woven fabric for minimal weight with optimum support Minimalist stripe mesh bib to minimise weight and keep you cool Integrated gripper elastic to keep shorts in place Progetto X2 Air Seamless seat pad Temperature comfort range of 20 40C Weight 141g (Large)

Castelli Go Cycling JacketA brilliantly versatile windproof and water-resistant jacket, the Castelli Go Cycling Jacket will keep you comfortable across a broad range of conditions and temperatures.

With the INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® preventing cold winds from robbing body heat, you’ll soon feel, and hold onto, the warmth you generate through riding. It’s highly breathable too, so a sudden injection of pace or a stiff climb won’t result in you being soaked in sweat. Lastly, water-resistance also keeps off light rain and road spray.With weather protection taken care of, next comes the Castelli fit. The tailoring ensures a close, streamlined fit, but one with some space for layering and to be suitable for all shapes and sizes. A no-sew hem gives the jacket a smooth elegantly technical finish while hidden internal cuffs at the wrist boost comfort by eliminating drafts.Three rear pockets give plenty of space to load up for your longest of rides and a large reflective strip across the bottom ensures you’re visible when training finishes after dark.Similar in warmth to a Perfetto ROS Long Sleeve, the Go Cycling Jacket gets a slightly more relaxed fit and a more tailored look for those of you not in race mode.

Winter Winners Winter is where you’ll build your fitness towards the highs of summer form and for those of you who race, hopefully, the summer race wins. And if you’ve got some long base miles on your training plan, the Women’s Polare 3 Bib Tights ensure you can get outdoors and tick off the session in comfort, despite plunging winter temperatures. This is made possibly firstly via the GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® front panels. This totally windproof material faces into the cold, preventing the heat sapping effects of windchill, locking in all the heat you generate when riding. Meanwhile, all-weather protection is also boosted thanks to the Nano Flex 3G on the bum and the back of the lower legs. This water-repellent fabric provides splash and spray protection when roads are wet. Castelli also uses their Thermoflex across the back of thighs. This fleece-backed stretch material insulates you against the cold while also providing the renowned Castelli fit. With its excellent stretch, it allows you to enjoy a smooth unrestricted pedal stroke too. Bib straps are kept minimal, offering excellent moisture management and letting you choose suitable base layers to suit conditions and your own preference/natural warmth. And for those of you training at night, large reflective inserts to the front and back of the legs grab attention when pedalling. KISS Air² Donna Seat Pad The KISS Air² seat pad has been designed specifically for female riders, providing high-performance comfort across all conditions. Next to the skin, a super-soft stretch microfibre offers brilliant comfort. And with seamless construction, chafing and abrasion are all but eliminated. Next, infinitely variable thickness padding offers outstanding support. Maximum thickness and density in the ischial zone, tapering to moderate thickness in the perineum, and minimum thickness at the perimeter.
Winter is when you'll be outside, getting the hours done, the miles ticked off and building a solid base of fitness for spring and summer.

And it has a superb level of flexibility too, so the tights never feel restrictive. But not just that, the fabric is also highly breathable so you don't feel clammy when you're working hard. In areas most exposed to the weather and in need of extra protection, namely the upper front panels, thighs and across the back, you'll find Nano Flex Xtra Dry deployed. This adds both extra warmth and windproof protection while also boosting water-repellency. Sleek Fit While the fabrics may take centre stage, the fit of the Sorpasso tights is also worth admiring. Anatomic patterning gives a perfect fit at the hips and knees, delivering smooth pedalling flexibility in and out of the saddle. At the upper body, the lie-flat bib straps hold tight but soon disappear from your mind.

Castelli Free Aero RC Bib TightsAs you seek fitness gains during winter, building a strong aerobic base ready for spring and summer, you'll really appreciate the high-performance comfort, flexibility, water-repellence and warmth the Castelli Free Aero RC Bib Tights offer. The key to the success of the Free Aero RC Bib Tights is the use of two types of Castelli's own highly functional Nano flex materials. For most of the tights, Castelli deploys their Nano Flex 3G fabric. With a luxuriously soft fleece inside, you'll enjoy the utmost level of warmth as temperatures drop. It's flexible too, allowing for unrestricted pedalling while excellent breathability prevents you from getting too sweaty during high-intensity efforts. Not only that, but it also keeps most of the wind out and the nanotechnology water-repellent finish is just right to fend off drizzly rain. Meanwhile, lighter-weight Nano Flex stretch-woven fabric is used for the lower legs. A lightly brushed inner is warm but it's also good at regulating temperature to prevent overheating. As with the upper, a water-repellent finish prevents the chilly effect across the shins from spray thrown up from wet roads. Simplicity and functionality are key features of the rest of the tights.
