Clothing Castelli Bib Shorts | Castelli Superleggera Bibshort Black

Castelli Have Always Been Pioneers Of Cycling Shorts For Very Hot Weather. The Castelli Superleggera Bib Shorts Are Their Very Latest Development, Pushing Fabric Technology Further Than Ever To Deliver The Best In Lightweight Hot-Weather Performance.

Scorching Performance

Castelli Have Worked From The Ground Up, Looking At New Ways To Make The Superleggera Bib Shorts As Light As Possible, Highly Breathable And Yet Maintaining Durability. To This End, They Start With A Unique Woven Fabric Rather Than Standard Knit. It’S Some 50% Lighter Than Usual Cycling Shorts Fabric And Yet Offers Excellent Muscle Support And Non-Transparency. The Woven Nature Also Allows Castelli To Grade The Weight Seamlessly From The Top To To The Leg Ends – The Lower Part Of The Leg Weighs A Mere 90 G/M² Compared To The Usual 220 G/M² Of Standard Cycling Shorts. This Lack Of Weight Contributes To More Comfort As Temperatures Rise.

The Shorts Also Absorb Less Moisture For Greater Comfort And Less On-The-Bike Weight. At Just 114Grams They’Re Very Light Anyway But Because They Absorb 30% Less Moisture, They Remain Light Even As You Sweat. When You’Re Heading Uphill Every Little Bit Of Weight Saved Counts.

While Being Barely-There Light The Fabric Is Durable And Abrasion-Resistant Against The Saddle Too – Though Something This Light Won’T Like You Hitting The Tarmac So Ride Safe And Rubber Side Down. The Bib Section Of The Shorts Is Borrowed From The Free Aero Race 4 Bib Shorts For Perfect Support, Comfort And Moisture Management While Stretch-Woven Grippers Keep The Shorts Locked In Place Over The Thighs.
