The flagship piece of Endura’s Aero collection the Encapsulator Suit™ represents the pinnacle of aerodynamic cycle-wear for the rider who is obsessed with speed. Using Drag2Zero’s (D2Z) cutting edge technology the skin suit has been proven on multiple UCI WorldTour races. On the track the suit has helped Alex Dowsett Bridie O’Donnell and Vittoria Bussi break the UCI Hour Records and leave their mark in cycling history.Over 80 different skin suits have been created tested and remastered to reach the point where we are finally content to release it to the wider market. Optimised for speeds over 45kph and in a TT position the Encapsulator Suit™ is the go-to piece for any time trial rider looking to reach a new level. Optimised For Time Trial Bike Speed Range 46-58KPH (28-36MPH)While most brands test at one single speed Endura Drag2Zero® understands the critical variations in aerodynamic efficiency at different speeds and in different riding positions. As an example a suit optimised for a TT rider averaging 50kph in an aggressive aero position is not necessarily the fastest suit for a rider on a road bike chasing a sportive PB averaging 35kph. Developing the Endura D2Z® range around this broader philosophy has resulted in products which are finely tuned to the requirements of the target rider not only faster at one selected data point but across a range of speeds. Surface Silicone Topography – SST™This exclusive patent pending technology has been developed by Endura in close collaboration with Simon Smart of Drag2Zero® and validated by the world’s top road riders on the UCI WorldTour. SST™ is the result of years of R & D studying airflow in wind tunnel alongside the development of new production methods to bring theoretical ideas to real world riding. Strategically positioned 3D chevrons positively affect airflow around the body reducing drag at the speeds relevant to the target rider. Encapsulator PocketInitially banned then accepted by the UCI the Encapsulator pocket has had a short but controversial life. The super fine translucent mesh allows race numbers to be clearly visible while retaining the breathability of the pocket area around the number. Providing a simple solution to the challenge of neatly attaching a race number the Encapsulator pocket also protects the delicate fabrics from the damage caused by pins. 1000 Series (Aero) Seat PadThe 1000 series Italian stretch pad features is sculpted from a single block of foam so unlike traditional layered pads there are no clunky steps in pad thickness. The BioCeramic® high stretch fast wicking face fabric incorporates a permanent antibacterial finish completing one of the most advanced pads in existence. The “Aero” version of the pad used in the D2Z® Encapsulator Suit™ is specially shaped to suit a more aggressive riding position. Multi Fabric ConstructionEndura’s vast experience of garment construction and rigorous pursuit of “faster” fabrics comes together in the D2Z® apparel collection. The D2Z® Encapsulator Suit™ deploys 5 different fabrics in combination to meet the demands of fit comfort durability and aerodynamic efficiency. 90 Day Satisfaction GuaranteeSo confident are we in this product that if you are not entirely satisfied with it we offer a no-quibble refund or replacement within 90 days of purchase.

All of Speedo’s LZR range have been created by swimmers for swimmers, and nowhere is that clear than in the dual-layered and supportive LZR Pure Intent Openback Kneeskin one-piece race suit. Light compression is all the right places ensure that fatigue is kept at bay as you work at full power, with textured fabric is key zone to reduce drag at the same time. But while performance come first, this isn’t a suit that scrimps on comfort. Its ingenious construction keeps seams away from the body to prevent painful rubbing, and precision straps are designed to avoid causing discomfort. Finally, the open back means great freedom for you arms, and flexible areas in all the right spots makes it dead easy to get the suit on and off in a clinch.
Designed for a feeling of power in the water, our Powerskin Carbon Core FX open-back suit for women takes compression to a new level. This racing swimsuit is cut from Carbon Cage fabric that works horizontally and vertically for long-lasting muscle compression and a locked-in feel. At the back twin-taping along the legs has a lifting effect on the body, helping it to stay high and horizontal in the water. The internal taping and lining intensify support and core stability. To add flexibility, we designed the lining with a slim opening under the chest. Care Instructions Rinse immediately after use, in non-chlorinated water. Do not leave the wet swimsuit in a bag or other container for a long time. Do not expose the wet swimsuit in a bag or other container to direct sunlight. Wash with detergents suitable for delicate clothes, Air-dry away from heat sources. Hand wash only. Do not dry clean. Do not bleach. Do not machine dry. Do not iron.

The Speedo Fastskin LZR Pure Intent Backstroke Edition High Waisted Jammer is designed with compressive dual layers and an ergonomic seam construction – working together to connect key muscle groups for a greater power return. Textured fabric zones aid drag reduction, while the triple fabric construction, with bonded seams, allows for greater freedom of movement. The Speedo Fastskin LZR Pure Intent Backstroke Edition High Waisted Jammer also features a regular style waist which allows for greater flexibility – ideal for breast stroke and IM swimmers. Fully FINA approved.
Lightweight material used in the Speedo Fastskin LZR Pure Valor Openback Kneeskin one-piece swimsuit gives you hitherto unreached levels of freedom in the water. It’s constructed to give all four of your limbs power to make every single movement in the water count, alongside light compression within the main body of the fabric that keeps your core moving through fatigue. Hydrodynamics are optimised to the full thanks to flat lock seams that are wonderfully comfortable too, while refined neck and arm openings add durability at the same time.

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.

Compressive swimwear doesn’t have to feel restrictive or uncomfortable, and nowhere is that clearly than with the Arena Women’s Powerskin Carbon Air2 Fastback Short Leg Open Back one-piece swimsuit. The trick is the intelligent design of the carbon bands that compress in all the right places, keeping fatigue and lactic acid at bay while still allowing you to move freely, supported by an open back that helps you make every stroke count like never before. You won’t want to swim in anything else and the good news is, the water repellency and durability of the suit means that you never have to!
