The long-sleeve Gabba is one of our most versatile pieces. 100% wind protection with GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® water protection and best-in-class breathability. With a light base layer it's good for mild temperatures, or with a thermal layer you can ride it below freezing. If you have just one jacket in your cycling wardrobe, this should be it. Sublimation print graphic on the do-everything Perfetto RoS 2 Jacket base Castelli-exclusive GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® 205 Warm brushed water-resistant fabric on front-facing surfaces GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® 203 Stretch on rear-facing surfaces for greater stretch and breathability Taped shoulder seams for extra rain protection Top- and bottom-opening YKK® Vislon® zipper for easy sliding, covered for additional wind and rain protection Zippered ventilation opening on side of chest 3 rear pockets Reflective panel at bottom of pockets. The Unlimited version of the Perfetto RoS 2 Jacket is simply a graphic treatment making it look more at home on any surface but not sacrificing any of the performance. When we think about what we want in a gravel jacket, we keep coming back to the Perfetto, since it really is perfect for so many conditions. We just want it to look different. The Perfetto RoS 2 excels in dry conditions thanks to the high breathability, as well as in wet conditions thanks to the Castelli-exclusive GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® fabrics. There's a light fleece-lined water-resistant fabric on the forward-facing surfaces and a lighter and stretchier fabric on the back that maximizes breathability while providing excellent water repellency. The Perfetto RoS 2 Jacket keeps all the cold wind out while being much more breathable than the typical polyurethane membranes used on most jackets that try to compete with the Perfetto. When you stay drier you don't need as many layers underneath. The beauty of this jacket is that it doesn't have any insulation on its own, so a thin base layer is just right for mild conditions, while adding an insulating layer (a thermal jersey or Castelli's Alpha 2nd Layer) will take you to cold temperatures. You decide. The 2 part of the name refers to the updates to the latest version, including a YKK® Vislon® zipper with both top and bottom openings for more adjustable ventilation. The reflectivity on the back is more visible, the seam at the top of the shoulder has been moved to the back, and the three pockets hold more gear. While the Perfetto remains decidedly a performance fit, the new model has a touch more room through the chest, shoulder, and biceps. This is the one jacket that belongs in every cyclist's quiver.

If you look carefully, the Perfetto RoS 2 Jacket is essentially a long-sleeve version of the Gabba RoS 2. So it's just a warmer Gabba? Not really. The full sleeves fully turn it into a jacket, but one that covers a wide range of conditions. Like the Gabba, the RoS insignia signifies that it excels in dry conditions thanks to the high breathability, as well as in wet conditions thanks to the Castelli-exclusive GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® fabrics.

For more than thirty years MET has been making helmets for the very best in the sport of cycling. They ve learned, refined, and developed their products, getting faster, lighter and more comfortable with every generation. Enhanced for use in the peloton, the MET Trenta Mips is a performance road helmet engineered to maximise ventilation and save you energy with every pedal stroke.In-mould polycarbonate shell with EPS linerMIPS C2 rotational management system engineered to add protection in case of certain impactsExceptionally comfortable and secure on the head thanks to refined internal shapeMET Safe-T Orbital Fit System360° Head belt, vertical and occipital adjustments leave you with an individual fitAir Lite straps with adjustable divider to maximise aerodynamic and comfort19 Vents, Internal engineered air channelling system to improve ventilation and comfortSunglasses ports to securely dock sunglasses when climbing or restingTube-shaped tail to improve aerodynamicsRear deflector to enable a constant airflow in riding positionLimited head contact surface to maximise the ventilationReflective rear decals to enhance visibility in low-light conditionsS , 52/56cm , 240gM, 56/58cm , 250gL , 58/61cm , 285gFeaturing the MIPS-C2 rotational management system, the MET Trenta Mips is able to slide relative to the head in the case of a crash, redirecting damaging rotationalmotion. MIPS is a brain protection system engineered to add protection to the standard construction of helmets in case of certain impacts. The MIPS Brain ProtectionSystem (BPS) is attached inside the helmet, between the comfort padding and the EPS.Originally developed by NACA, a precursor to NASA, the position of this inlet at the front of the helmet has a cooling effect. Harnessing the power of the Venturi effect, the vent pushes out the warm air within the helmet through specially positioned exhausts. This ensures constant airflow through the helmet, without catching the wind and creating drag, achieving the maximum level of comfort during the longest rides on the road or on your gravel bike.Enhanced for use in the peloton, the MET Trenta s tube-shaped tail and internal air channelling ensure it performs best when riding in a group, offering up to 7% reduction in drag vs a traditional road helmet. It has a lower profile at the rear, which works in synergy with the NACA front vent and the rear deflector to effectively drive airflow.

MIPS is a brain protection system engineered to add at least 10% extra safety to the standard construction of helmets in case of certain impacts. The MIPS Brain Protection System (BPS) is attached inside the helmet, between the comfort padding and the EPS. The Fidlock magnetic buckle makes it easier and faster to fasten the helmet. The feature effectively reduces triathlon transition times.Despite being primarily an aero helmet, it is also well ventilated. We ve engineered the internal shape to channel the air and MET s signature NACA Vent works in synergy with the specially positioned exhaust ensuring a constant airflow through the helmet, without catching the wind and creating drag. It features two dedicated ports for securely docking sunglasses.Beyond its technical prowess, the Manta Mips is also exceptionally comfortable. The 360° head belt ensures that there will be no pressure points on the skull and its internal shape is inspired by the award-winning MET Trenta 3K Carbon.

The Alpha ROS 2 is Castelli's ultimate jacket, bringing warmth, breathability and excellent level of rain protection teamed with a comfort, soft fit and feel. The Alpha ROS 2 sets the standard by which all others are measured.Gore Infinium Windstopper 150 fabric provides excellent protection from the elementsSeam sealing and double stitching on shoulders keep you mostly dryAlpha construction separates water/wind protection from insulation layerBetter ventilation and moisture evaporation thanks to separate insulation layerStretch fabrics and raw-edge waist and wrist cuffs improve comfort and fitThere was a time when your cycling wardrobe consisted of items for all occasions, as your wet weather gear was to clammy and flappy in the dry and your dry weather kit just didn't hack it in the rain. Castelli's Gabba and Perfetto ranges bridged the gap, but the Alpha ROS 2 takes all-weather performance to the next level. The Alpha ROS 2 features a clever two-layer construction to separate the insulation layer from the protective outer shell, giving better ventilation and moisture evaporation. Further boosting ventilation is the double front opening and the excellent breathability of the Gore Infinium Windstopper 150 fabric.Not only does the Infinium Windstopper 150 fabric offer excellent breathability and protection from the elements, it is also extremely soft to the touch and stretchy, allowing for a superb fit to provide excellent comfort. Raw-edge waist and wrist cuffs also improve fit and comfort. The excellent weather protection of the Windstopper fabric is improved even further by the addition of a DWR treatment as well as selective seam sealing, with addition seam sealing and double stitching on the shoulders. Along with a waterproof YKK Vislon Zipper, the jacket is essentially waterproof while not compromising it's excellent dry weather performance. An occasional drop may seep through the seams, but you'll still be warm and dry with the jacket letting any internal moisture evaporate with ease. The Alpha also features 3 rear pockets with reflective laser-cut drain holes to boost practicality and visibility. For riders looking for versatile jacket for all riding conditions, the Castelli Alpha ROS 2 is one of the best around.
