Castelli VELOCISSIMA 3 BIBSHORT XL

This is our advanced mid-range short, great for a long ride or a quick training session indoors or out. Our Endurance Evolution fabric is a high-modulus, very matte Lycra® fabric that feels extremely dry and provides just the right amount of compression. At the leg endings, we provide a raw-cut edge with vertical silicone strips to keep the leg in place without the pressure that causes the dreaded sausage effect. The bib straps are stretchy enough that you can pull the shorts down for a pee break without having to remove your jersey and bibs; thanks to the floating construction, you can cross the straps at the front and back. You choose what feels comfortable. A fantastic short needs a fantastic chamois, and the KISS Air2 Donna chamois, specifically for women, keeps you comfortable and isn't too thick.
