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.
The new Beta RoS Women’s Jacket by Castelli follows in the footsteps of all Castelli’s Rain or Shine (RoS) by providing superb dry weather performance and wet weather protection. But it follows in another way too. Like the Gabba and Perfetto before it. It is an absolute revolution in cycling jackets.The Beta is a thin wind and splash barrier that provides a surprising amount of warmth while being incredibly lightweight. At 185g the Beta is lighter than many long sleeve jerseys. In fact, it is so light you will likely not even notice it, but you will still have the protection promised by many jackets.The jacket achieves the triple crown of wind and rain protection, breathability, and low weight by using a combination of Castelli’s lightest and stretchiest fabrics, Polartec® Neoshell® and Nano Flex Light.Polartec® is used on the front and the upper of the sleeves to provide windproof and waterproof protection where you need it most. Nano Flex Light woven fabric is used on the back allowing any excessive moisture and heat to escape whilst also shedding light rain.The Beta RoS women’s Jacket is a performance piece. There is nothing superfluous on the jacket. A YKK® Vislon® zipper provides easy opening and closing even when the pace is high, and 3 rear pockets are just the right size and easily reachable. The only thing that could be deemed superfluous is the large reflective panel, but on cool grey evenings added visibility is always worthwhile.The race fit achieved through the high stretch fabrics and close cut minimises flapping and is reflective of the kind of high intensity, fast riding you will be doing in it.Ride unhindered and focussed on your effort, whatever the weather decides to do. Key Features: Polartec® NeoShell® 4-way-stretch fabric on front and upper sleeves is windproof, waterproof, and highly breathable,Nano Flex Light woven fabric on back is highly breathable while blocking wind and light rain,Close-to-body cut remains comfortable thanks to 4-way-stretch of all fabrics,YKK® Vislon® zipper is easy sliding for quick ventilation control,3 rear pockets,Large reflective panel on lower back,Race fit,10° – 18°C / 50° – 64°F,Weight: 185g (Small).
Castelli Commuter Reflex Cycling JacketSimple and stylish during the day, bright and highly visible at night, the Commuter Reflex Cycling Jacket offers excellent waterproof protection day or night. Created for the demands of regular bike commuting, the Commuter Reflex Cycling Jacket fits easily over normal clothing while also having incredible reflectivity that is barely discernible during the day. No odd-looking reflective strips and panels here, just an all-over reflex finish that shines under headlamps and streetlights. This makes it great when you arrive at work and brilliant for regular, non-biking use too. However, it's not just visibility where this jacket shines. The functional fabric also offers outstanding waterproof performance, rated with a 20,000 mm water column to keep the rain out and taped seams to stop any water ingress. Just as important for cycling is its excellent breathability. A 20,000 MVTR breathability rating means less sweat build-up and a fresher feeling when you arrive at your destination. Ventilation comes by the way of a gaiter at the waist, allowing you to seal in warmth or open for extra airflow. The gaiter also allows for a more natural fit with everyday clothing and gives a refined fit both on and off the bike.

Fitting comfortably over your normal everyday clothing, the Commuter Reflex Cycling Jacket at first glance looks like a subtle and stylish rain jacket, a great match with office attire or casual wear. However, it’s also designed to perform brilliantly on the bike, with the reflex fabric being the standout feature. At night reflective elements across the whole jacket come alive when caught in headlamps and the glow of streetlights. By day, those same elements are barely discernible.

Designed for riding in all weathers, the Commuter Reflex Jacket is made to deliver Castelli’s leading cycling garment design to your daily commute whilst looking great too.Castelli wanted to create a commuting jacket that provided excellent visibility at night but wouldn’t be covered in silver reflective bands that look out of place off the bike. The solution is a rmaterial with a reflective micro print that provides 360° visibility in low light but won’t look out of place when you turn up to the office.The fabric is also waterproof with a 20,000mm water column and a 20,000 MVTR breathability rating, meaning a good amount of moisture will escape and you won’t feel damp when you take the jacket off.The Reflex Jacket has an inner gaiter at the waist to seal out the wind, or you can leave it open for a bit more ventilation in warmer weather. The other great thing about the gaiter is that it means the jacket hangs straight instead of bunching like with the internal elastic on many cycling jackets.Velcro wrist closures also introduce ventilation and can seal against gloves for cold mornings and late evenings.Key Features3-layer reflex reflective fabric all over,20,000mm water column and 20,000 MVTR breathability,Cut to fit over normal clothes with longer back for extra cover,No-sew bottom hem for clean look,No-sew external zipper flap,Inner gaiter to block out cold air at waist,Velcro wrist closures,-2° – 15°C / 28° – 59°F,Weight: 319g (M).
