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.

Castelli Alpha ROS 2 JacketPart of their Rain or Shine range, the Castelli Alpha ROS 2 Jacket is an adaptable and protective cycling jacket suited to a wide range of weather conditions. Great in the cold and dry weather, protective in warmer and wetter weather, it lives up to the Rain or Shine moniker. This third generation of the Alpha ROS 2 Jacket is the best yet. Updates include improved fabrics to give a boost to performance in the wet as well as enhancing breathability while new double-layer cuffs work better with winter gloves. And it still retains the innovative double-layer construction that makes it so good in so many cycling conditions. Rain Out. Warmth in. Dressing for changeable weather is always tricky. Too warm. Not warm enough. Lots of layers. Rain jacket. It's all a bit much sometimes. However, the Alpha ROS 2 is best in class for your cold, dry days on the bike. And yet come rainy weather, you won't have to immediately reach for a hardshell rain jacket. This is all made possible by the high-performance Gore® INFINIUM™ Windstopper® 150 fabric and double-layer Alpha construction. Gore® INFINIUM™ Windstopper® 150 fabric is completely windproof, superbly breathable and fends off all but the heaviest of downpours. Meanwhile, the Alpha design keeps the outer weather-protective layer from the inner insulating layer. This allows you to keep your core protected while still ventilating the outer layers. The result is more control of body heat, better moisture evaporation and greater comfort across a wide range of conditions. Performance Fit and FeaturesStretch fabrics with advanced patterning make for an excellent close-to-body fit that still accommodates a wide range of body types. A raw-edge waist that lies flat and moves with you plus the Castelli silicone text gripper at your waist keeps the jacket from riding up. 3 rear pockets with reflective laser-cut drain holes plus an extra pocket with waterproof zip make for a very practical jacket with plenty of storage space.For those of you seeking the ultimate in versatile all-weather, multi-season cycling protection you really need not look any further. Think of this as taking all your winter kit options and distilling it into one incredible do-it-all garment. We think you'll find it's worth every penny.Features:Materials: 100% PolyesterGORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® 150 fabric for wind protection, high breathability and effective rain protectionReduced seaming with seam sealing on shouldersDouble-layer Alpha construction separates the insulating layer from wind/water barrierRaw-edge waist with silicone gripperDouble-layer cuff integrates with glovesBack ventilation3 rear pockets with reflective laser-cut drain holes + zippered secure side pocket for valuablesWater-resistant YKK® Vislon®Stretch fabrics with advanced patterning make for excellent close-to-body fitSuggested temperature range: -5 to 10 degrees CBuy Castelli Clothing from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.
The perfect jacket for mild winters or for the rider who tends to overheat, this piece features our warmly insulated GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® fabric on the front and sleeves, while the back forgoes the membrane to let moisture escape. It's a non-race-fit jacket to fit most body shapes. GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® X-Fast fabric with fleece liner on upper chest and sleeve front GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® Mid with lightly brushed inside on lower front Reflective panel on chest Warmer back allows heat and moisture to escape Reflective heat transfers on pockets for maximum visibility 3 rear pockets YKK® Vislon® zipper. The Mortirolo Jacket has been designed to be a warm, cozy jacket on cool days while preventing overheating and moisture buildup inside the jacket. Choose this jacket for riding in cool but not frigid temperatures, or for high-intensity rides or if you tend to sweat a lot. This jacket excels in a wide range of conditions as long as it's not bitterly cold or raining. It's the combination of the right fabrics and construction that make it work so well. You get coldest on the upper chest and arms, so we use our GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® X-Fast three-layer fabric with a luxurious fleece inside for extra warmth. The lower part of the front is in our mid-weight GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® fabric with a lightly brushed inner face. Both of these fabrics provide 100% wind protection, excellent splash protection, and best-in-class breathability. The back is in our brushed fleece 100% polyester Warmer fabric with superior wicking. It's not windproof, so it lets a lot of moisture escape. You stay drier and therefore warmer and more comfortable. The jacket has a neutral fit. It's not too racy, so there's room for an extra layer underneath, but it's certainly not going to flap in the wind.
