Castelli UPF 50+ Light Arm SkinsCastelli can officially only rate these warmers at UPF 50+, but in their laboratory tests they actually blocked 99.8% of damaging UV rays. Castelli have used a polyester base that is not only more effective than nylon at blocking UV rays but is also much better at keeping you dry, which means these skins are better in both cooler and warmer conditions. The construction is very clean to eliminate seams that can rub, and feature double-sided silicone elastic to make sure they stay in place. They fold up extremely small, so they're great to stick in your pockets for your next big mountain day.Features:Polyester based for excellent moisture management Solare fabric keeps the chill off without causing overheatingUPF 50+ protectionDouble-side silicone elastic at top for excellent gripWeight: 97g (pair)Buy Castelli Clothing from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.

Speeding to the Future The original road-racing speed suit was first unveiled in 2011 at Paris Roubaix, the ultimate cobbled classic. From that moment on, the approach to competition-focused cycling kit changed. This Sanremo RC Speed Suit has evolved from that original speed suit. It combines the advanced aerodynamics of the cutting-edge Castelli Aero Race 6 Jersey and the incredible comfort and supportive fit of their Free Aero RC Bib Shorts. The convenience of separate shorts and jersey but with an integrated design that delivers race-winning aerodynamics. Using CFD analysis, Castelli’s engineers have precisely placed seams and low-drag fabrics where they are most effective at maintaining aero efficiency. The most meaningful gains are to be found in the range of 30 to 55 km/h. Uncompromised Comfort With speed comes intense effort. And hence heat. And sweat. However, highly breathable and quick-wicking materials to regulate your body temperature to prevent overheating and deal quickly with moisture. The 3D mesh back, in particular, is quick to draw moisture off the skin and allow unimpeded airflow to speed up sweat evaporation. As befits a suit for use on the road, you have the benefit of storage pockets. Perfect for storing an energy gel or energy bar. Both sleeves and leg grippers get a raw-cut finish for the smoothest and most comfortable fit. The leg grippers stay put without the need for silicone too. Progetto X2 Air Seamless Seat Pad The first contact point against the skin is the super-soft upper skin-care material. It's now seamless and even softer than previous generation pads. The next layer, Castelli’s infinitely variable thickness padding, imparts just the right level of support where you need it - thicker under the sit bones and thinner on the sides and under the perineum. The results are outstanding comfort with reduced bulk. Lastly, to really push home superior comfort levels, perforated viscous padding is added under the highly sensitive ischial and perineum pressure areas, offering luxurious support when you're on the saddle for hours on end.

Taking its name from a phrase coined by fast-jet military test pilots - (we'll let you research that one) - the BTW Speed Suit has been created purely in the pursuit of speed. Castelli utilised CFD analysis, 3D test mannequins, fabric research and testing, numerous wind tunnel tests, and real-world WorldTour riding, resulting in their most aero suit yet. Dimpled shoulders and sleeves deal with boundary-layer aerodynamics while a smooth body is deployed to reduce skin friction and reduce drag to as little as possible. The 3% saving comes at higher speeds, particularly between the 45-65 km/h range, speeds at which races are won and lost. While comfort wasn't the main focus for the BTW, Castelli still uses highly breathable, full-stretch fabrics. An increase in Lycra® content gives a super-snug fit, albeit with a slight reduction in wicking performance. And it doesn't have the same front opening as the San Remo suit, so pee stops are a bit more challenging. But it's a fast suit, and that's what counts. Progetto X² Air Seat Pad The 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.
