Castelli Ergo Tre Cycling Short Black
Big bang, little Bucks!
The Ergo Tre uses great materials, a race-proven seatpad, high quality construction and the added flair that of course we would expect from what is a brand leader in the sport. Even more good news is that for 2012, they've even used the same price tag - value that will never get old. The same painstaking care and attention to detail goes into creating this entry level short as does Castelli's top-of-the-line offerings. Suffice to say that what appears to be the entry level in Castelli's line brings you a spec that would be hard to match with any other branded cycling short in this price range or even higher.
Ergo Tre short features:
The Ergo uses Affinity 210 Lycra - a silky smooth feeling fabric, that provides muscle support and compression.
8-panel anatomic construction, with double-needle cover stitching, provides a perfect level of comfort, fit and durability.
Castelli's latest KISS3 chamois, engineered without any of the seams that can cause abrasion and chaffing. The top layer of the seatpad provides a comfortable and soft interface with the skin. Most riders will not need chamois creme with the Kiss 3 pad. High density foam provides just the right amount of cushioning in key areas, whilst less is used around the edges of the pad, minimising unwanted bulk in these areas.
Classic silicone gel grippers at the leg hold things nicely in place.
The Castelli name is embossed on the side panel adding a touch of unmistakeable flair.
2 rear reflective tabs.
