Castelli Climber's 3.0 SL Cycling JerseyWhen the heat of summer arrives and cycling mountain peaks are a challenge you want to take on, the Castelli Climber's 3.0 SL Cycling Jersey is the right pick for the job. Light. Fast. And breathable.High Mountains. High Heat. The Climber's 3.0 SL Cycling Jersey has been created as a result of a need of pro cyclists for a jersey suited to racing in the Alpine stages of the Tour De France. While you may not be racing there you can still benefit from the performance of the Climbers Jersey. For one, it's remarkably light, just 106 grams, so you'll barely know it's there. Open fabrics keep airflow constant in order to keep you cooler. While the back fabrics actually block more than 90% of UV rays for some sun-protection.On long climbs, quick-wicking fabrics draw excess sweat off the skin to prevent discomfort. And this also means you feel more comfortable on the downhills from high passes as sweat and windchill won't cause you to freeze. Even on damp days, it doesn’t soak up moisture, so much so the pros often use it even when it’s wet.Ready to RaceAs you'd expect of a race-ready jersey the fit is close to the body. The cut and patterning of the jersey owe much to the Aero Race Jersey, creating a jersey with lower drag numbers than a standard cycling jersey. Elbow-length sleeves, with raw-cut edges, and airflow shoulders both reduce drag too. And for bright sunny days on the bike, the back blocks more than 90% of UV rays.Even if you’re not racing or tackling the searing heat and steep slopes of the Alps this summer, you’ll still love and benefit from how cool, streamlined and light this jersey is. Light. Dry. Fast. Bring on summer cycling.Features:Materials: 93% Polyester, 7% ElastaneCFD-based fabric placement and seam constructionEngineered rapid cooling, lightweight and aero efficiencyAirflow shoulder constructionFlusso 3D fabric on front and sleeveStradaPro 3D back for breathabilityBack blocks 90% of UV raysElbow-length stretch sleeves with raw-cut edgeYKK® Vislon® zipperDrop tail for perfect pocket placement while keeping jersey fitting well at the waistWeight: 106 g (Large)Suggested temperature range: 22 to 40 Degrees CBuy Castelli Clothing from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.
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. Features:Materials: 68% Polyamide, 32% ElastaneMesh: 77% Polyamide, 23% ElastaneHigh-compression 215 g Forza 2 fabric with 32% Lycra® content provides exceptional muscle support and compressionProgetto X² Air seamless seat pad is soft against the skin but well padded for long-distance comfortMinimalist bib straps allow maximum airflow, while a reinforced yoke keeps the straps flat over the shouldersRear mesh pocket5-panel construction for reduced seams and less chafingStitched scorpion logo patch and embossed Castelli wordmark for durabilityReflective piping on back of legsRaw-cut edge at waist for extra stretch and comfortRaw-cut leg ending engineered to stay put without siliconegrippersSuggested Temperature range: 15 to 35 degrees CBuy Castelli Clothing from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.

Castelli Aero Race 6.0 Cycling JerseyOriginally designed to save split seconds in road races, Castelli created the aero road race jersey category. The sixth-generation Castelli Aero Race 6.0 Cycling Jersey now gives significant aero advantages, leading to gains that hugely eclipse those offered by the original Castelli aero jerseysFree Speed The name of Castelli's very first aero-focused cycling jersey was the Split Second, launched in 2006. It caused quite a stir when it first appeared as until then performance cycle jerseys were about efficient moisture management with little consideration of progress through the air. The Aero Race 6.0 Cycling Jersey has the DNA of that aero jersey but with modern CFD (Computational Flow Dynamics) to analyse wake-flow, it's so much more efficient at reducing drag, honed for speeds between 30 and 55 km/h.Less drag equals more speed for the same power output. Faster without more training. Now that's an advantage worth having. Cool ComfortIt's not just aerodynamically efficient though. Moisture build-up is also dealt with rapidly and with ruthless efficiency. All fabrics are quick-wicking and a 3D mesh back, similar to their high-performance base layers, ensures you're kept cool and dry as you build up speed. All the effort to go fast will mean you need you to keep fuelled. Fear not, the Aero Race 6.0 has space for all your nutrition via the easy to reach back pockets. The drop tail design keeps them perfectly in position and minimises sagging when they're loaded up too. The Aero Race 6.0 Jersey is Castelli's most aerodynamically advanced design to date and yet it's also their best fitting too - Just ask their WorldTour professional riders. A remarkably comfortable high-performance cycling jersey whether it's your longest days in the saddle or a short and intense criterium race.Features:Materials: 82% Polyester, 18%ElastaneCFD-based fabric placement and seam constructionEngineered for aero efficiency at 30 to 55 km/hAirflow shoulder constructionVelocity Rev2 fabric on front and sleeve3D mesh back for breathabilityElbow-length stretch sleeves with raw-cut edgeYKK® Vislon® zipperDrop tail allows perfect pocket placement while keeping jersey fitting well at the waistWeight: 109gSuggested Temperature range: 18 to 35 degrees CBuy Castelli Clothing from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.

Castelli Women's Aero Pro JerseyThe Castelli Women's Aero Pro Jersey is made for fast cycling. Cutting-edge fabrics, a fit honed to reduce drag and a limited edition print, all combine to give the ultimate in performance and style. From Split Second to Aero 6.0The original Castelli aero jersey for road racing first saw light in 2006. It was known as the Split Second jersey. It was at a time when aerodynamics was only really considered important for time trials. Baggy cycling jerseys were the norm until that very first Castelli aero focused jersey appeared.However, with every new version of the jersey, the aerodynamic advantages have proved to be worth far more than just a few split seconds. The Women’s Aero Pro Jersey is a female-specific version that gives an unrivalled level of performance.Using CFD (Computational Flow Dynamics) to analyse wake-flow, the Women's Aero Pro will fit you even better when you're in an aggressive riding position while seam placement has been optimised to minimise drag.

More speed. You could almost call it free speed.Cool and FuelledOf course, riding fast, whether in training or racing, is going to generate heat. That, in turn, leads to sweat. However, the Aero Race 6.0 isn't just efficient through the air it's also efficient in dealing with moisture too. Quick wicking and with a 3D mesh back you'll be cooler and drier as you push hard on the pedals.To keep you up to speed and fully fuelled for your ride, the pockets are easily accessible when stuffed with gels and thanks to the drop tail design the jersey remains sleek even when they're loaded up.The Women's Aero Pro Jersey is Castelli's most aerodynamically advanced design to date and yet it's also their best fitting too - Just ask their WorldTour professional riders.

Castelli Women's Beta ROS JacketFeels like a jersey. Performs like a jacket. The Castelli Women's Beta ROS Jacket is all about giving you on the bike weather protection while not weighing you down. Windproof, water-resistant and highly breathable, it's ideal come Rain or Shine. The Women's Beta ROS (Rain or Shine) Jacket is ideally suited to the changeable and fickle weather conditions you'll be riding through come autumn and spring and even into milder winter days. In the past, you'd need multiple layers to take off and put on so you don't get too cold or too warm. The Beta, however, deploys a mix of Polartec® NeoShell® and Nano Flex Light to provide ample insulation, excellent breathability and a good level of water-resistance too. Castelli uses windproof and waterproof Polartec® NeoShell® across the front of the jacket and over the upper sleeves. This prevents heat-robbing windchill and will shrug off a sudden rain shower or persistent drizzle. Meanwhile, the back is made from Nano Flex Light woven fabric. This material's key attribute is its breathability, preventing cold sweat build-up when you're applying more intensity or temperatures climb. Being splashproof it will also keep road spray from causing discomfort. Castelli tailors the Beta with a women's specific 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.
