The Castelli Velocissima Women's Bib Tights marry warmth and luxurious comfort in a subtle aesthetic, making them ideally suited to your winter training needs. At once highly breathable, elegantly constructed and primed for longer days in the saddle, these are a winter wardrobe staple.Investing in a top-tier pair of bib tights for the winter months pays dividends not only in terms of performance gains but ride enjoyment. Uppers are often swapped and changed as conditions change but you’re unlikely to change your bib tights throughout the duration of a training ride, so it’s crucial to get a pair that keep your temperature regulated and ensure maximal comfort.The Velocissima Bib Tights are a stalwart pair of tights, owing to the meticulous care and attention invested in their development and refinement by Castelli’s prestigious R & D team. Bred from a pedigree of tried, tested and widely lauded racing garments, the Velocissima Bib Tights take technical innovations and employ them to give you the best winter training experience.The Thermoflex fabric utilised across the tights is not only insulating but incredibly soft, owing to the optimal loft and refined composition that Castelli has employed. The brushed fleece inner is phenomenally warm but also allows freedom of movement on the bike. Combined with mesh bib straps the Thermoflex fabric makes for optimal breathability, so that as you transition from cooler starts to milder conditions your temperature remains just right.The Kiss Air2 Donna seat pad employed in the Velocissima Bib Tights is custom made by Castelli and chosen by many professional racers for their training needs, due to its moisture management properties and slightly more low-profile padding than the Progretto X2 seat pad. Needless to say, the Kiss Air2 keeps you comfortable even on long days on the bike.As you would expect from Castelli, every single detail of the Velocissima Bib Tights has been selected because it improves your ride experience. The YKK Camlock zippers on the ankle cuffs can be flipped upwards to lock the zipper in place, preventing it from unfastening mid-ride and exposing your ankles.Key Features:Thermoflex fabric for warmth, breathability and lasting insulation,Kiss Air2 Donna seat pad for luxurious comfort,Mesh bib straps for additional breathability,YKK Camlock zippers keep the tights fastened securely on ankles,Reflective leg ends and a muted, elegant overall aesthetic,Optimal temperature range 5°C – 15°C.

Autumn and spring are fabulous times to ride a bike. But the weather is so hard to predict and achieving the right balance of warmth, breathability and weather protection is difficult - you'll often end up too warm or too cold. However, the Beta ROS Jacket makes it easy. Using a mix of lightweight and stretchy fabrics it cuts out most of the wind, remains extremely breathable and should rain strike offers surprisingly good water protection. Facing into the weather, the front panels and upper sleeves use Polartec® NeoShell®. This is windproof, waterproof and breathable, striking the balance you need when the weather changes from good to bad from one moment to the next. Across the back Castelli use their Nano Flex Light woven fabric. This prioritises breathability, keeping you dry and sweat-free when you're pushing hard on the pedals or the day warms up. It is also windproof and splashproof, for all-ride comfort. Castelli tailors the Beta with a race-bred fit, perfect for fast autumn and spring rides and smooth efficiency when tackling rolling terrain. No flapping fabric to sap energy, leaving more watts for the job at hand, riding and training hard. When it comes to features there's nothing unnecessary either. Three rear pockets offer space for nutrition and spares, a reflective panel keeps visibility up during evening training sessions and a full-length front zip makes it quick and easy to control ventilation.
Originally designed as an overflow bag for a 3 week stage race, the Gear Duffle will be your go-to bag for travelling - whether that is with the bike, or with the family. It boasts an extra large top opening, internal mesh pockets and that stand-out Castelli red lining, all to help you keep your gear in place so that everything is easy to access on the move.

Castelli Special Collection As we look forward to cooler temperatures and less predictable weather, it's time to delve into the Castelli special collection of winter cycling kit. With a focus on performance and style, these pieces give you warmth and comfort alongside exclusive designs that stand out amongst the rest. Motivation Booster Motivation to ride can be hard to muster when the weather is bitterly cold and windy. However, the Hollywood Windstopper Cycling Jacket ensures you'll have an extra impetus to get out and ride. Thanks to the GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® X-Fast cold winds are kept out and the heat you generate is retained inside. Cosiness is guaranteed. However, when the time comes to inject some extra effort, maybe a tough climb or stiff headwind, the excellent breathability prevents you from being drenched in sweat. INFINIUM™ is also lightly water-resistant, letting you ride through drizzle and light rain showers without having to immediately reach for your hardshell rain jacket. Streamlined Cycling The stretch fit and anatomical form-cut of the Hollywood jacket ensure a smooth fit when you're cycling. This saves your precious energy for those last few miles of a winter base-building ride (and hopefully lets you avoid the dreaded bonk). Talking of energy, the three rear pockets let you load up with nutrition for your training hours on the saddle as well as making space for your rain jacket should storm clouds burst. The high collar provides a snug fit for maximum protection from the elements. When you're facing a day of cycling in colder temperatures and the bite of windchill, the cosy Hollywood Windstopper Cycling Jacket provides a boost to your motivation to get out and ride. And with its alluring print, it's an attention grabber on a dull winter's day too.
Castelli Aria Shell JacketLightweight, breathable, windproof and streamlined, the Castelli Aria Shell Jacket means you can ditch your old flappy cycling jacket and enjoy modern cycling performance, just like the rest of your Castelli kit.The Aria Shell Jacket is all about bringing the classic windproof jacket right up to date. This high-performance windproof matches the rest of your highly functional cycling kit. Gone are the oversize fit and flappy, poor breathing fabrics. In its place are an ultralight windproof woven microfiber front and mesh side panels. These work in harmony to keep out cold winds but offer extremely good breathability too. No cold air can slip inside and yet any sweat you build-up can escape, the result being a perfect temperature when riding. The fit is a revelation compared to jackets of old too. The stretch panels to the sides and back of the sleeves give it a second-skin fit more akin to a race jersey. Less fabric to catch the wind, less drag, more efficient cycling. A win all-round. In cool to mild conditions, you can keep it on all ride, but if the day warms up it's easily folded up to stuff in your jersey pocket. This is definitely not your old-style wind jacket.
