A cold winter ride needs a great base layer, and they don’t come much warmer, or more comfortable, than the Castelli Flanders 2 Women's Warm Long Sleeve Base Layer. The high-loft, SottoZero Fleece, provides excellent insulation and draws sweat away from the skin, while extra ventilation mesh-zones around the armpits, keep you feeling fresh (so if you stop for a coffee or, freewheel a rapid descent, you won't feel cold and damp). It's stretchy for a perfect fit and, the flat-lock seams are not only smooth and comfortable against the skin, but the flat hem also works brilliantly with tights.
This product was made for the conditions of Flanders in February. Or basically any month in Flanders between September and May. High-loft fleece on the inside provides warmth to spare, and you’ll love the softness on your skin with the excellent moisture management of this 100% multi-denier fabric. It’s stretchy for a perfect fit, and the flat-lock seams add an extra touch of quality. Features: SottoZero Fleece multi-denier 100% polyester fabric Flat-lock stitching Mesh armpit insert Flat hem tucks away in tights
Designed for female riders, the Free Aero Race 4 W Bibshort represents a significant evolution from earlier models of Castellis best-selling shorts and holding the Free Aero Race 4s's place as the ultimate race shorts. Dimpling on the legs stops air attaching to the fabric so that air comes off cleanly and allows for better print quality too. The leg gripper features a lie-flat raw-cut edge with vertical silicone stripes to keep it in place without restricting stretch and leg movement. The bib shorts' panelling has improved fit for support while making the shorts look even cleaner. Castelli has re-engineered the bib straps with a lighter, more breathable material so they stay cooler, lie flatter and are more durable. The shorts use Progetto X2 Air Seamless Donna women's-specific seat pad, with the softest fabric youve ever felt. Key Features Vortex dimpled fabric on legs for aero performance Forza fabric on inner legs with 38% Lycra content for a perfect fit Stripe mesh engineered lie-flat bib strap construction keeps you cool Giro4 leg gripper elastic for better grip distributed over a larger area Doppio V construction in front for increased comfort Flat-lock stitching Progetto X2 Air Seamless Donna women's specific seat pad 15-35C / 59-95F Weight: 156g
MADE TO RACE Typically, our women's garments are designed from the ground up for women.However, the Free Aero 3 W Bibshort is designed from the ground up for racing. That specific goal leads us to a somewhat minimalist construction, but one that is made for aerodynamics and also comfort, since racing requires long hours in the saddle, both in training and on race day, resulting in one of our most comfortable shorts as well. The 2019 Free Aero 3 W Bibshort represents a significant evolution from last year's model, our best-selling short ever. There's a new leg gripper that still features a lie-flat raw-cut edge but now has vertical silicone stripes to keep it in place without restricting stretch. The new fabric allows for better print quality for your custom team production, the same as Team Sky will use in 2019. We've updated the seams to improve the fit and make the short look even better on the body. We've re-engineered the bib straps with new fabrics and construction so they stay cooler, lie flatter and are more durable. The new Free Aero 3 W Bibshort also receives the updated Progetto X2 Air Seamless seat pad featuring the softest surface fabric you've ever felt in a seat pad. Features: Vortex dimpled fabric on legs for aero performance Forza fabric on inner legs with 38% Lycra® content for perfect fit Stripe mesh engineered lie-flat bib strap construction keeps you cool Giro4 leg gripper elastic for better grip distributed over larger area Doppio V construction in front for increased comfort Flat-lock stitching Progetto X2 Air Seamless Donna women's-specific seat pad Weight:156g

Performance Perfected After 12 years of evolution and huge kilometres of on the road testing, where exactly have the Castelli design team squeezed out even greater comfort and performance from the already exemplary Women's Free Aero Race shorts? Well, the heart of any great shorts is the seat pad and for this year the women's specific Progetto X2 Air Donna is more flexible than ever with a new seamless top layer giving you a pad that is virtually unnoticeable and it's possibly the softest pad you'll ever use. New GIRO4 leg grippers get enhanced stretch and yet are grippier than previous versions so the pressure is spread wider but without any loss of traction on the thighs. While these improvements are subtle, they all add up to a major step up in comfort, providing support on both the longest and shortest rides.
