Castelli Superleggera Bib ShortsCastelli have always been pioneers of cycling shorts for very hot weather. The Castelli Superleggera Bib Shorts are their very latest development, pushing fabric technology further than ever to deliver the best in lightweight hot-weather performance.Scorching PerformanceCastelli have worked from the ground up, looking at new ways to make the Superleggera Bib Shorts as light as possible, highly breathable and yet maintaining durability. To this end, they start with a unique woven fabric rather than standard knit. It's some 50% lighter than usual cycling shorts fabric and yet offers excellent muscle support and non-transparency. The woven nature also allows Castelli to grade the weight seamlessly from the top to to the leg ends - the lower part of the leg weighs a mere 90 g/m² compared to the usual 220 g/m² of standard cycling shorts. This lack of weight contributes to more comfort as temperatures rise. The shorts also absorb less moisture for greater comfort and less on-the-bike weight. At just 114grams they're very light anyway but because they absorb 30% less moisture, they remain light even as you sweat. When you're heading uphill every little bit of weight saved counts. While being barely-there light the fabric is durable and abrasion-resistant against the saddle too - though something this light won't like you hitting the tarmac so ride safe and rubber side down. The bib section of the shorts is borrowed from the Free Aero Race 4 Bib shorts for perfect support, comfort and moisture management while stretch-woven grippers keep the shorts locked in place over the thighs.Progetto X2 Air Seamless Seat PadLet's look at the Progetto X2 Air Seamless seat pad in more detail and see just why it's so incredibly comfortable. The first contact point against the skin, the upper skin-care material, is now seamless and even softer than previous versions letting you enjoy smooth and chafe-free pedalling. The next layer, Castelli’s infinitely variable thickness padding, imparts just the right level of support where you need it, thicker under the sit bones and thinner on the sides and under the perineum - the result is intense comfort with reduced bulk. Lastly, to really push home superior comfort levels, perforated viscous padding is added under the highly sensitive ischial and perineum pressure areas, offering luxurious support when you're on the saddle for hours on end.

Castelli Nanoflex Pro 2 Bib Tights AW18Now more protective than ever, Castelli's Nanoflex Pro 2 Bib Tights uses new Nano Flex Xtra Dry fabric to increase water protection and warmth, making it perfect for the depths of winter, whether it's a wet or dry day.A step on from the original Nano Flex, Nano Flex Xtra Dry is improved with a tighter knit design with a double layer that increases the thermal warmth of the Nanoflex Pro 2 Bib Tights. At the same time, Castelli has also improved the water-repellent treatment so you'll be able to ride for longer in the rain before water can soak in. However, these improvements aren't to the detriment of breathability, you'll still find the fabric is highly effective at removing sweat to leave you dry and comfortable inside. Another key component for comfort on your winter rides is the inclusion of the Castelli Progetto X² Air seat pad. This pad uses multi-density foams in variable thicknesses to provide support and cushioning where you need it most. A lack of seams eliminates chafing while pedalling, creating a pad that is comfortable for hour after hour. The construction uses minimal seams, to prevent water ingress, and extra material is added over the backside and inner thigh to resist soaking from road spray. As the light fades you'll also be pleased to find large reflective splash proof panels over the shin increases your visibility, perfect for those who ride early or late in the day.Features:Materials: 78% Polyamide, 22% ElastaneNano Flex Xtra Dry fabric brings higher level of water protection and warmthDouble-face knit keeps you warmer because less wind comes inReflective waterproof splash guards on inside of lower legsDouble layer over backside protects from water coming off rear wheelFewer seams to reduce chance of water coming inLie-flat bib constructionProgetto X2 Air pad for long hours in the saddleSuggested Temperature Range: 0 to 10 Degrees CBuy Castelli Cycle Clothing from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.
