Castelli Free Aero RC Bib ShortsFirst launched 15 years ago, and worn to countless victories, the Free shorts are legendary for their comfort. The Castelli Free Aero RC Bib Shorts build on this heritage, making them the best racing shorts Castelli have ever made. You don't have to be a pro rider to enjoy the benefits the Free Aero RC Bib Shorts offer. Whether riding for an hour or riding all day, the smooth, compressive support, premium seat pad and outstanding flexibility all offer unrivalled comfort. Less is MoreCastelli have deconstructed their previous Free shorts and started from scratch to deliver a more minimalist, but highly comfortable race short. Compared to previous iterations, there are fewer panels, now just 5 compared to 10. In combination with Castelli's high-stretch and compressive Forza 2 fabric, this gives a wonderful sense of freedom throughout your pedal stroke. Moving to the ends of the legs, this sees yet more minimalism. Instead of the usual elastic or silicone grippers, you'll find just smooth, raw cut edges. No more irritation when you're getting sweaty. After 28 prototypes and extensive material testing, Castelli have found the sweet spot, with shorts that remain in place but don't irritate or compress too much. Bib Straps When it comes to the upper body, again Castelli have sought to minimise the construction, removing bulk, boosting comfort and improving airflow.Open-weave bib straps let air in while also letting moisture evaporate away quickly. To the back, a reinforcing yoke ensures your straps remain flat and in place, while the mesh back is kept narrow, again to improve airflow to the body and prevent overheating. At the lower back, the bib forms a convenient storage pocket too. Progetto X² Air Seat PadThe top-end Progetto X2 Air Seatpad is now better than ever. Castelli has improved the shape of the back and improved the method of stitching it in place. The result is it now sits flatter and offers greater comfort. The X2 retains its awesome ventilating perforations, keeping you cooler and drier on endurance rides. The design allows air and moisture to flow directly to the surface fabric for quick evaporation maintaining dryness. A 3 layer component construction also features two densities of foam plus gel pads to provide progressive damping. A super-soft and stretchy next-to-skin layer, with an antibacterial finish, completes this premium pad.

Be it gravel riding, bike packing, gravel racing, all-terrain riding or generally having a great time exploring on two wheels, the MILLE GTC KIESPANZER Bib Shorts C2 have been created to keep you comfortable. When you go beyond the tarmac and head off the beaten track in search of new adventures they're an ideal companion. For rides that stretch from sunrise to sunset, the GTC KIESPANZER have plenty of extra storage. With easily accessible mesh pockets to the thighs and lower back, it's simple to grab the essentials you need, even on the go, without needing to rummage around in your frame bag, handlebar bag or saddlebag. Assos also add highly reflective stripes to the shorts, keeping you visible when your riding days start early before the sun has fully risen, and for when those last kilometres towards your camp or hostel for the night are shrouded in darkness. Built Tough. And Comfortable. With a focus on off-road and multi-day bike packing, Assos have used a combination of Type.429 fabric and 'Bunny Hop' side panels. The 'Bunny Hop' panels fit and feel like a regular performance textile, thanks to its woven polyamide/elastane blend, but it's highly abrasion-resistant too, fending off pulls and scratches from trail-side overgrowth. Meanwhile, Type.429 fabric delivers a snug flexible fit to ensure you enjoy a streamlined and flexible fit. It's also highly breathable, perfect for high summer rides and durable to resist the abuse of countless kilometres on the saddle. And with light compression, helps push back fatigue as your venture further and further into the wilds. Assos AEPD (Advanced Ergonomic Pattern Design) Regular Fit Finding the perfect harmony of long-ride comfort and smooth, flexible fit, the Assos AEPD Regular Fit isn't so compressive as their RaceFit but it's certainly not going to slow you down. Tuned for comfort in the saddle and mobility off the bike. At the legs, the Silicone Leg Grippers are a robust version of their Superlight grippers. These provide a solid hold of the shorts, even across rough trails, and grip without the need for bulky grip applique MILLE GTC C2 Insert Tuned for the extra demands of rough off-road riding, the MILLE GTC C2 Insert features the Shock-Absorb Damping Twin system. This consists of MicroShock and FilterFoam in two layers and a total of 19mm of bump-absorbing gravel comfort. An odour-resistant top sheet also keeps you fresher when on the bike. 3D Waffle inserts keep bulk low and allow more air circulation and thermoformed shaping reduces ridges and irritation. The kraterCooler design also sees perforations across the leading edge of the pad, drawing in cool air and boosting breathability. Lastly, there's the goldenGate. The unique stitching pattern allows the insert to 'float' allowing the pad to move with you for optimal comfort.
Assos MILLE GTC KIESPANZER Bib Shorts C2Created for the adventurous cyclists seeking new places to explore, the Assos MILLE GTC KIESPANZER Bib Shorts C2 give you extra storage options, durable fabrics and a high-quality pad created for the demands of rough gravel roads and trails.

While you may have a mix of frame-, handlebar- and saddle-bags for storage the KIESPANZER offer more immediately accessible storage space. Rather than delving into bags, the thigh and lower back mesh pockets allow easy access even on the move - ideal for snacks, essential spares and smartphones for documenting your ride. Fo long days in the saddle, Assos has also given the shorts reflective stripes, ensuring you'll be visible during an early morning start or for those last few kilometres to camp/hotel where the sun has long but disappeared and darkness cloaks the landscape.

And for nature breaks, the magnetic closure makes it quicker and fuss-free.

The result of their hard work is the Women's UMA GTV Bib Shorts C2.When it comes to taking a quick nature break and getting going again, the 'Bisilick' twin magnetic closure system takes the fuss out of the situation. The old single front closure has been replaced by a twin magnetic closure to the back. This is more comfortable and secure when in the saddle but offers easy convenience for pit stops.
