The concept for the Women's Omloop Nano Bib Shorts is simple, to give you a pair of shorts with excellent thermal properties for colder weather, some extra protection from wind and rain while staying as flexible as your favourite summer cycling shorts. To achieve this Castelli use their brilliant Nano Flex 3G fabric. This high-performance fabric features a brushed inner face to trap warmth while to the outside, it repels water using a nanotechnology system. Nano Flex is also very flexible, so won't hinder your smooth pedalling. Castelli have also reduced the number of seams compared to a standard short. This gives a twofold advantage - firstly fewer seams reduce areas water can seep inside - and secondly, eliminates areas that can chafe, thus boosting comfort. Mesh bib straps allow your skin to breathe and allow you to tailor warmth via your base layer choice. Kiss Air2 Donna Seat pad Inside the shorts, you'll be pleased to find Castelli's Kiss Air2 Donna Seat pad. Next to the skin, you'll enjoy the luxury of Castelli's softest ever surface fabric, delivering immediate comfort. Seamless construction and stretch fit all but eliminate chafing as you push the watts. Next comes the dual-density, variable thickness padding. This sees maximum density and thickness across the ischial zone, reduced thickness around the perineum and then minimum thickness at the edges. This is all wrapped up in an anatomically shaped pad for optimal comfort for any distance Once you try the Women's Omloop Nano Bib Shorts you'll quickly understand why they're such a hit for racing and training in cold, damp weather. Warmth, weather-protection and flexibility working in perfect harmony.
The Nano Flex Xtra Dry fabric used for the Nanoflex Pro 2 Bib Tights is an advancement of the original Nano Flex, with a tighter-knit double-layer construction for warmth, and the water repellency treatment is improved to offer even more protection in the rain. At the same time, you still have the benefits of incredible breathability and stretch that make this tight so impressively comfortable when riding. This is a tight you'll enjoy wearing whether it's dry or wet. It's not just about the fabric though. Castelli gives the bibtights their Progetto X² Air seat pad, designed with multi-density foam in variable thicknesses and without seams, it will give you support where you need it most. Extra protection is added to the inner leg of the tights, helping to resist splashes and road spray, while large reflective panels increase your after-dark visibility. The tight is also constructed with the bare minimum of seaming, which helps keep the rain out and also makes it even more comfortable. Utilising the best of modern fabric technology paired with Castelli's expertise in fit and comfort, this tight is an impressive all-around winter tight you'll love to wear.
It's the Nano Flex 3G fabric used that makes the Women's Tutto Nano Bib tight such a capable performer in all types of weather and riding conditions. When the clouds burst and rain begins to fall then, and here comes the tech, the nanotechnology microfilament mechanical water repellent finish combined with a short-chain chemical DWR finish prevents water from seeping in, maintaining your comfort for longer. Reduced seams also enhance protection and the thermal performance keeps cold out and warmth in. Elsewhere, the mesh bib straps keep airflow to the body optimised, helping regulate temperature and prevent clamminess as you build up body warmth. With the cold and wet conditions dealt with the focus turns to on-the-saddle support, and here Castelli have used their renowned Kiss Air2 Donna women's specific seat pad. It incorporates as many of the features and comfort as the top-of-the-line Progetto x2 seat pad but at a more affordable price. A seamless and super soft, brushed microfibre top maximizes comfort and fit. It's flexible to move with you and a bacteriostatic treatment helps stop saddle sores and infection. Dual-density and infinitely variable thickness foam give you the perfect cushioning for every part of the pad -maximum thickness and density in the ischial zone, tapering to moderate thickness in the perineum, and minimum thickness at the perimeter. Rain showers, sunshine, cold, cloud, whatever the weather the Women's Tutto Nano Bib tight is Castelli's answer to that winter conundrum of what to wear for a day of riding that sees almost every season make an appearance.
First thing you'll notice when you pull the Women's Tutto Nano on is the snug stretch fit. This is thanks to the highly flexible Nano Flex 3G fabric, as found in Castelli's superb Sorpasso tights. This close fit not only saves precious energy but less flapping boosts warmth too. Speaking of warmth, the fleece inner is great at trapping body heat and the tighter knit of the fabric lets less air through than traditional thermal jersey fabrics, enhancing warmth still further. Next comes Castelli’s proprietary nanotechnology water-repellent finish. When you're cycling in the dry you'll not notice it. However, on a damp and drizzly autumn day, it comes into its own, fending off light rain and wet roads, keeping you comfortable for longer. Spring and autumn days are shorter and so you'll also be pleased to find 360° reflectivity, keeping you visible as the night draws in. An easy-sliding KK® Vislon® zipper with rubberized pull and the silicone gripper elastic finish the jersey in style. If you're looking to upgrade your cool-weather cycling kit, the Women's Tutto Nano ROS Jersey is a great place to start. Compared to a traditional thermal jersey it's a definite step up in performance.
Adjustable Float These pedals feature an adjustable free float that can be fine-tuned to ensure you get the correct float movement, which reduces the cycling strain on your knees. Other pedals only allow a pre-set amount of float or no float at all, but the Zero pedals can be adjusted to your personal preference. This helps to ensure you will be comfortable even at the end of the longest days in the saddle, helps to avoid injury and significantly optimises your power output. Dual-Sided Cleat Engagement Another invaluable feature is the dual-sided entry, which means you can just step down on the pedal and go. No more fumbling or looking down to get into the right position, as the cleat’s design and pedal’s shape ensure that you’ll engage quickly and safely without having to stop and think. Maximum Comfort & Performance Unlike traditional cleats, each of the essential foot positioning adjustments can be changed without affecting each other. Three-Way Adjustment ensures you can set up the cleat’s front/rear and side-to-side positions individually and then choose how much float you want. These unique adjustment settings significantly increase comfort and efficiency while dramatically reducing knee strain and fatigue. Cleat Covers Designed for Safer Walking These Zero pedals come with Speedplay's rubberised cleats, which make those off the bike periods less dangerous if your bike's mechanical problem forces an extended walk on the tarmac, or if you feel the need for a coffee stop. Additional Features: · The Zero cleat positions your foot closer to the top of the spindle for improved power transfer · The thin pedal profile of the Zero pedal lets you power through corners where your rivals coast · Built-in grease port for easy bearing lubrication Technologies: Large, Stable Pedalling Platform: The Zero Pedal System provides the same solid connection as conventional single-sided pedals, but with Speedplay's unique, inverted design the cleat provides the platform once the cleat in engaged Quality Without Compromise: Zero pedals use precision cartridge and needle bearings - three of them instead of two found in most other pedals - which allows the Zero to be thinner for a lower stack height, better cornering clearance, and reduced aerodynamic drag. Like all Speedplay Pedal Systems, the locking edges of Zero pedals and cleats are metal-on-metal for durability and safety, unlike competitors who use engagement edges made of plastic True Locking Mechanism: The Zero's locking mechanism does not rely on spring tension for security, so entering and exiting Zero pedals is easy, but unintended release is virtually impossible
