The race short par excellence. It's not easy to combine maximum freedom of movement and extreme comfort for long hours in the saddle. But with the TC Pro seat pad, the AeroFlow fabric and many tricks learned over the years in the pro cycling world, this short has succeeded. Who Is It For? For those who climb on the saddle ready for a challenge and competition and who want a short for their granfondos, their hardest training sessions, and their everyday contests with their riding partners. The top racing short in the Sportful road line. Tried, tested, and developed with the pros of Team BORA-hansgrohe, this is the standard short for the team throughout the season. It’s the most used version, on which we’ve based the Air, for hot days, and the Shield, the protective version in the event of a fall. The LTD Bibshort is built around the TC Pro seat pad, which ensures sufficient comfort even in the longest races such as Milan–San Remo, and allows maximum freedom of movement in any situation, including mass sprints (yes, sprinters are the most demanding in terms of freedom of movement). The construction of the legs in AeroFlow gives the right degree of compression and stretch for comfort and adherence, and the leg endings are in elastic without seams. The real secret of this short is the flat-lock seams and their positioning: we’ve reduced them to a minimum and inserted them in places where friction is minimal. No irritation or hindrance during your maximum effort. Why You Will Love It? Road racing short. Minimal bulk, racing structure and cut, and a seat pad that ensures comfort and freedom of movement even in the longest races.

For the Insider Bib Shorts, Castelli have used their inferno fabric, this lightweight material is quick to draw moisture off the skin, avoiding discomfort from sweat build-up and it won't get wetted out either so avoids cold clamminess as you cool down. Continuing the lightweight theme the shorts feature the Giro Air leg grippers, raw-cut edges and vertical silicone grippers hold firm without exerting too much pressure. Hard intervals efforts will have you breathing deeply but thanks to the extra-stretchy Doppio waistband you'll always feel unrestricted.

If you're short of time or don't relish battling traffic and cold dark evenings, then why not pull on your Insider Bib Shorts and enjoy a hard indoor training session to keep your fitness building during winter - while the legs are screaming you'll still enjoy perfect Castelli comfort.
