Description
Innovative Evolution
The Castelli Men's Free Aero RC Classic Bibshort is the perfect mix of comfort and speed. Engineered for top-level racing, which also makes it supremely comfortable for every ride and rider.
The concept is quite simple: start with the best pad, surround it with a supportive short with good muscle compression, and then remove everything else that's not absolutely necessary.
The Free Aero RC Bibshort is their top race short, which also means that it's insanely comfortable even if you never pin on a number. Since its introduction 15 years ago this short has won three Tours de France, three Giri d'Italia, one Vuelta, and Milano-San Remo, but it also became the best-selling product in the history of Castelli because, simply put, this is the short that does everything well.
Features:
- High-compression 215 g Forza 2 fabric with 32% Lycra® content provides exceptional muscle support and compression
- Progetto X2 Air seamless seat pad is soft against the skin but well padded for long-distance comfort
- Minimalist bib straps allow maximum airflow, while a reinforced yoke keeps the straps flat over the shoulders
- Rear mesh pocket
- 5-panel construction for reduced seams and less chafing
- Stitched scorpion logo patch and embossed Castelli wordmark for durability
- Reflective piping on back of legs
- Raw-cut edge at waist for extra stretch and comfort
- Raw-cut leg ending engineered to stay put without silicone grippers

Reviews
This new version is way better than the last two versions. The chamois is the same, but it is now placed better so fits much better. I also like the lighter straps and slightly higher compression on the fabric. The little pocket is placed lower in the back so it is actually useful for stashing small items like keys, or an extra gel.
I've tried A LOT of different bibshorts. These rule. Whether sweating it out indoors or all day on a 100+ mile ride, these always get the job done. In fact, I've stopped wearing all the other bibshorts I own. I think that says it all.
I am 5' 6" (66 inches/ 168cm) I weigh slightly north of 140lbs / 64kg. I am a size small in race cut bibs...Assos, Primal, Endurance, Rapha, Pearl Izumi, all size small.
These are much smaller. They are tight enough that when you take them off, they still feel like they are on. The straps are also TIGHT...
