Castelli Premio Black Cycling Bib ShortsThe finest Castelli shorts yet made, the Premio Black Cycling Bib Shorts are a marvel of fabric engineering, with an exceptional fit and premium seat pad that all combine to deliver luxurious cycling comfort.Seamless PerformanceLess is more when it comes to the Premio Black Cycling Bib Shorts. The construction uses fewer seams and fewer panels and yet comfort, fit and flexibility is outstanding. And this is all made possible thanks to the innovative engineered fabric. With no need to stitch panels together, comfort is enhanced and gives the shorts a sleek, sophisticated look.Gradient StretchStarting at the pelvis, the engineered material offers a high degree of compression and muscle support. This thicker fabric also avoids any transparency issues. As you move down the shorts you'll find the material gradually becomes lighter. This ensures exceptional flexibility when pedalling and a boost to moisture management as you raise the pace or temperatures rise. The four-way stretch also provides just the right amount of muscle support too. Meanwhile, raw cut endings and rubberised yarns keep the legs in place.Moving to the upper body, the premium fabrics offer a smooth and comfortable fit with straps securing the shorts without cutting into your shoulders. A perforated back regulates body temperature while bonded edges make sure you don’t notice the thickness of a stitched edge.Progetto X2 Air Seat PadInside the shorts, you’ll find Castelli’s premier Progetto X2 Air seat pad. This exceptional seat pad has an incredibly soft and seamless upper face material, delivering superb comfort. 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 intense comfort with reduced bulk.Features:Materials: 65% Polyamide, 34% Elastane, 1% PolyesterGradient stretch woven fabric for the right support in the right placeWoven fabric weighs 30% less than comparable knit fabricPerforated back bib panel with lie-flat bib straps that don't bind at shouldersIntegrated gripper elastic at leg ending holds short in place without need for extra silicone grippersLaser-etched logos with RossoCorsa at center back and black scorpion shadow logos at lower legsProgetto X2 Air Seamless seat padSuggested temperature range: 14 to 38 Degrees CBuy Castelli Clothing from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.

Castelli Climber's 3.0 SL Cycling JerseyWhen the heat of summer arrives and cycling mountain peaks are a challenge you want to take on, the Castelli Climber's 3.0 SL Cycling Jersey is the right pick for the job. Light. Fast. And breathable.High Mountains. High Heat. The Climber's 3.0 SL Cycling Jersey has been created as a result of a need of pro cyclists for a jersey suited to racing in the Alpine stages of the Tour De France. While you may not be racing there you can still benefit from the performance of the Climbers Jersey. For one, it's remarkably light, just 106 grams, so you'll barely know it's there. Open fabrics keep airflow constant in order to keep you cooler. While the back fabrics actually block more than 90% of UV rays for some sun-protection.On long climbs, quick-wicking fabrics draw excess sweat off the skin to prevent discomfort. And this also means you feel more comfortable on the downhills from high passes as sweat and windchill won't cause you to freeze. Even on damp days, it doesn’t soak up moisture, so much so the pros often use it even when it’s wet.Ready to RaceAs you'd expect of a race-ready jersey the fit is close to the body. The cut and patterning of the jersey owe much to the Aero Race Jersey, creating a jersey with lower drag numbers than a standard cycling jersey. Elbow-length sleeves, with raw-cut edges, and airflow shoulders both reduce drag too. And for bright sunny days on the bike, the back blocks more than 90% of UV rays.Even if you’re not racing or tackling the searing heat and steep slopes of the Alps this summer, you’ll still love and benefit from how cool, streamlined and light this jersey is. Light. Dry. Fast. Bring on summer cycling.Features:Materials: 93% Polyester, 7% ElastaneCFD-based fabric placement and seam constructionEngineered rapid cooling, lightweight and aero efficiencyAirflow shoulder constructionFlusso 3D fabric on front and sleeveStradaPro 3D back for breathabilityBack blocks 90% of UV raysElbow-length stretch sleeves with raw-cut edgeYKK® Vislon® zipperDrop tail for perfect pocket placement while keeping jersey fitting well at the waistWeight: 106 g (Large)Suggested temperature range: 22 to 40 Degrees CBuy Castelli Clothing from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.
Castelli Unlimited Ultimate Liner Bib ShortsCreated for use under your favourite baggies, the Castelli Unlimited Ultimate Liner Bib Shorts deliver superb comfort via their Progetto X² Air seamless pad and lightweight construction. Rear pockets add useful storage space too. Just because they're hidden, doesn't mean liner shorts should be mediocre. Their Unlimited Ultimate Liner Bib Shorts have applied the same level of design as with their premium race shorts. It all starts with the Progetto X² Air seamless seat pad. This premium pad features a super-soft contact layer over the dual-density foam and gel pads. Whether it's a rough backcountry gravel trail or a smooth ribbon of tarmac, the support and damping it offers is superb. Castelli have carefully designed the hip area to keep the pad securely in place and prevent chafing, with Force fabric offering excellent breathability in this area too. The legs are made with perforated fabrics and feature gauze-like GIRO Air elastic grippers to keep them in place. This combination allows airflow to circulate as well as allows your skin to breathe. The upper follows a similar light and airy path. Open-knit bib straps let sweat escape and airflow in. The back of the bib section is kept narrow to reduce coverage while a back yoke keeps the straps in the right place and prevent bunching. The final flourish is the inclusion of 3 storage pockets. These can be found to the back, sitting just above the waist height of your baggy shorts. An ideal place to stash essentials when you're wearing a loose-fitting t-shirt/cycling jersey.Features:Materials: 71% Polyamide, 29% ElastaneProgetto X² Air seamless pad for long rides and rough trails170 g Force fabric through hips to keep pad in placePerforated leg panels are light for maximum ventilation and coolingGIRO Air leg grippers are cool and hold legs in placeMinimalist bib straps as found on Free Aero RC Bibshort3 rear pockets sit above waistband of baggy shortsSuggested Temperature range: 14 to 35 degrees CBuy Castelli Clothing from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.
