Castelli Competizione Mens Cycling Bibshorts (Black)
8050949066591
A performance bib short for riders who want Castelli's pro-level race fabrics and grippers at a more accessible level, with a KISS Air2 pad comfortable enough for long days even if you never pin on a number.
Overview
Castelli built the Competizione to carry as much technology as possible from its top pro-level race shorts into a more accessible short. It is capable of weekend racing, but it is just as much a comfort-performance short for everyday training.
The textured Vortex fabric and GIRO4 leg gripper come straight from the Free Aero Race 4 bibshort, while the KISS Air2 seat pad delivers most of the comfort of Castelli's top pad. Affinity Pro Lycra® on the inside of the leg gives stretch and rebound, Vortex BLC textured fabric on the legs aids aerodynamics, and flat-lock stitching keeps it smooth. Castelli's pattern engineering gives it a precise on-bike fit.
It is the short that does everything right without overdoing anything, from midweek training to weekend group rides and the occasional race.
Why You'll Like It
Race-derived fabric
Vortex textured fabric from the Free Aero Race 4 helps with aerodynamics.
All-day comfort
The KISS Air2 seat pad gives most of the comfort of Castelli's top pad.
Grip without pressure
The GIRO4 raw-edge leg gripper with silicone stripes stays in place comfortably.
Stretch where you move
Affinity Pro Lycra® on the inner leg offers outstanding stretch and rebound.
Who Is It For?
The Competizione suits club riders and weekend racers who want genuine race-derived features without top-tier pricing.
It is also a strong upgrade for riders moving up from an entry-level short who now ride longer and faster.
Good to Know
Castelli uses a performance cut that often runs smaller than other brands, so many riders size up one size. Wear without underwear, wash after every ride on a gentle cycle and air-dry.
