Performance Perfected

After 12 years of evolution and huge kilometres of on the road testing, where exactly have the Castelli design team squeezed out even greater comfort and performance from the already exemplary Women's Free Aero Race Bibshort? Well, the heart of any great shorts is the seat pad and for this year the women's specific Progetto X2 Air Donna is more flexible than ever with a new seamless top layer giving you a pad that is virtually unnoticeable and it's possibly the softest pad you'll ever use. New GIRO4 leg grippers get enhanced stretch and yet are grippier than previous versions so the pressure is spread wider but without any loss of traction on the thighs. Lastly, the Stripe Mesh straps are lighter in weight, more breathable and yet offer enhanced support, in all honesty, you'll barely notice they're there, but that's the whole point. While these improvements are subtle, they all add up to a major step up in comfort, providing support on both the longest and shortest rides.

Progetto X2 Air Seamless Donna Women's Seat Pad

Let's look at the Progetto X2 Air Seamless Donna in more detail and see just why it's so incredibly comfortable. The first contact point against the skin, the upper skin-care material, is now seamless and even softer than previous versions letting you enjoy smooth and chafe-free pedalling. 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 result is intense comfort with reduced bulk. Lastly, to really push home superior comfort levels, perforated viscous padding is added under the highly sensitive ischial and perineum pressure areas, offering luxurious support when you're on the saddle for hours on end. 

Pro Performance

The Women's Free Aero Race 4 bib shorts are designed with a focus on race performance which has naturally led to a short that is minimalist in its construction, boasts slippery aerodynamics and yet is incredibly comfortable for both long races and tough training sessions. Updated seams improve the fit and they now sit on the body even better giving you unrivalled freedom of movement. When it comes to comfort on race day and your longest of training days we think you'll soon discover why these shorts are loved by the Pros.

Castelli Women's Free Aero Race 4 Team Cycling Bib Shorts is rated 5.0 out of 5 by 1.
Rated 5 out of 5 by twoodat from Super-comfortable from day one I had a pre-release pair in time for the Festive 500 in December. Not the best time of year, but I had agreed to write a blog in time for their release in January. I've always had great experiences with Castelli kit (my Body Paint 2.0 shorts are still one of my favourite pairs of all time). I'm normally cautious with new kit but I decided to give the new Free Aero 4s a go on a day that I had a 180km planned (I paired them up with leg-warmers). Thankfully, they didn't let me down! The chamois pad is so light - it is barely noticeable when standing (unlike some that can feel like a big nappy) but it does a great job. No discomfort at all over 180km. The next day I was able to get back on the bike with no sore-ness and over the next two days completed the remaining 320km to make the Festive 500 target. I've given five stars because I can't fault them on quality and comfort. I can't wait to wear them in summer - the straps are a lovely super-light fabric (similar to DotOut) which feels like it will be really cool. The fit is snug and supportive (like compression-wear) without feeling too tight. A couple of warnings from a purely aesthetic point of view: 1) They're shorter than average shorts. Be warned about extra sun-care precautions if you're precious about tan lines (I came a-cropper last year with similarly short-shorts and ended up with Neopolitan ice-cream legs). 2) They're not as black as pictured - more like a dark grey. Only really an issue if you wear them with super-black leg warmers and you have OCD about colour matching. I think these have replaced the Body Paints as my favourite summer shorts for long rides!
