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.

Dainese Linea 01 MIPS Full Face MTB HelmetWith a low weight but excellent protection from MIPS and safety features packed inside, including a Medical ID device, the Dainese Linea 01 MIPS Full Face MTB Helmet is ready for the demands of downhill mountain biking.The Linea 01 MIPS Full Face MTB Helmet makes use of a dual-density EPS inner, with a mapped design to provide targetted protection to those areas most susceptible to crash impacts. Meanwhile, the tough polycarbonate outer shell offers long-term durability and protection against lighter impacts - think branches and bushes along the trail. Structural strength and rigidity are enhanced by a nylon exoskeleton embedded within the inner shell. This starts across the chainguard and across the cheeks. This keeps weight low without sacrificing protection.MIPS (Multi-directional Impact Protection System) The Mips system is designed to provide added safety for helmets in many accidents. For certain impacts, the Mips system can reduce harmful rotational motion that might otherwise be transferred to the user’s head.Rotational motion is a common cause of concussions in oblique hits to the head. In a crash, the Mips system is designed to move slightly inside the helmet to help redirect forces away from the head.NFC (Near Field Communication) Medical ID DeviceIncluded with the helmet is another layer of safety via an NFC TwiceMe system. Should you become incapacitated after a crash, this device gives first responders access to faster personal and health information transmission, allowing for dramatically reduced rescue times.Go with the FlowWhile you're mountain biking, you'll be generating some heat. But thanks to 29 carefully positioned vents, the Linea optimises airflow, ensuring you don't overheat. An anti-bacterial and anti-odour liner also makes for a fresh ride, every time. And when you need that new helmet feel, it's removable and washable too.Ride ReadyDianese have designed the Linea so that your vision of the trails remains clear and unrestricted. The chinguard is engineered not to get in your line of sight and the adjustable peak is easily adjusted with one hand so as to allow the perfect field of view.

The Bomber Suit is back, with all its high-performance characteristics plus extra crash protection. Introducing Hardcord technology. The Bomber Suit was created in collaboration with Team BORA-hansgrohe and Peter Sagan. After a few tests on the road, this skinsuit had already finished on the top step of the podium in Roubaix. Just like Peter, we fell in love with it and made it available to everyone. Now the Bomber Suit is back in a completely updated version, with the innovative Hardcord protection on the legs for high resistance against friction in the event of a fall. Our tests guarantee the integrity of the shorts in an impact up to 45 kph. The fabric is very stretchy, lightweight, and breathable, with details that emphasize the aerodynamic characteristics of the suit. Have you noticed that there’s not a single seam on the shoulders and that the front and back are one piece? The sleeves are in raw-cut mesh, as are the leg endings, while the new full-length YKK® Camlock® zipper allows one-handed opening while riding. The three pockets have a gusset to increase the load capacity, and micromesh over the pockets allows you to use them as a race-number holder. In short, everything is designed for maximum performance in the most extreme conditions, including protection against the unexpected. These characteristics have proved successful for Team BORA-hansgrohe, and now they’re yours too! WHO IS IT FOR? For those who have speed in their blood and always give everything on the bike. For those who want to perform at their best without sacrificing protection in case of a crash. WHY YOU WILL LOVE IT? It’s our best-ever road skinsuit, and now it offers increased protection against friction.
