![]() Castelli Body Paint 2.0 Cycling Bibshort Black/Red /Yellow FluoFaster, higher, StrongerIn this coming Olympic year it is very fitting that Castelli should give us the new updated version of their highly acclaimed Body Paint Bibshort. If there is a bibshort out there that can really help you fulfil the Olympic motto then we think this is the one. Ride faster, climb higher and stay stronger in these highly technical, supremely comfortable cycling bibs. We'd say that the Body Paint epitomizes Castelli's constant drive to always improve their product, and provide you with what you could call completely legal performance enhancement. Part of Castelli's Rosso Corsa line of performance apparel that incorporates groundbreaking technology and design to create a product that not only allows but assists the human body to perform to it's maximum potential.Already hugely popular since their introduction, and after six figure mileage of Pro-rider testing this last year, the Body Paint 2.0 takes performance and comfort to another level for 2012. The premium Progetto X2 chamois gets added airflow for ventilation and quick-drying, thanks to perforations added into the foam layer of the seatpad. The seatpad has also seen a little refinement in the shape, to increase comfort even further. If you haven't already, don't get left behind - join the revolution now!
![]() The Progetto X2 Air Chamois from CastelliRedesigned for 2012, to make you even more comfortable, the Progetto X2 Air chamois, from Castelli is now cooler and drier. This has been achieved by adding perforations to the comfort layer of the pad, allowing improved ventilation and moisture evaporation. Also, thanks to feedback from professional riders, the shape of the pad has been altered slightly to better fit to the rider shape in the saddle area.Small steps for the Castelli Technical Team, but a major leap for the comfort of cycling mankind!
Aero Dimples on the Body Paint 2.0 Bib Short
Let's open the science part with the definition of laminar airflow: a flow of air uniformly parallel from ceiling to floor, or wall to wall in a room, moving with uniform velocity and a minimum of turbulence. It is impossible to maintain laminar airflow over a moving object within it. For our purposes, this moving object would be your leg(s). Castelli have engineered dimples into the fabric to induce flow separation and reduce aerodynamic drag. This dimpled structure has been knit right into the single piece of lycra used to make these shorts-it is not a panel created separately and then stitched in. What does this mean? No seams to chafe or wear out and the garment can lay completely flat against the skin, making it even more aerodynamic.
The Body Paint 2.0 a.k.a The Best Short Ever. The fastest and most comfortable bibshort that Castelli has ever made, means a faster and more comfortable you!
Giro2 Bib Straps on the Body Paint 2.0 Bib Short
The bibstrap will lay completely flat against the body and hold the shorts in place perfectly. The minimum of material is used to maximum effect, keeping you cool and comfortable whilst the shorts are fully supported and remain in position. A breathable lightweight mesh panel at the rear includes an electronics/radio pocket just like the pros!
Giro3 Integrated Leg Grippers on the Body Paint 2.0 Bib Short
With the Body Paint 2.0 the grip material is knit directly into a large, 5cm (2 inch) strip of the fabric at the bottom of the leg. It is an integral part of the one piece of fabric used in the construction of the short. This type of gripper will securely hold the short in place, with only gentle compression, and will lie completely flat against the leg for improved aerodynamics. Additionally, they will keep leg warmers in place and they also don't pinch your legs like shorts with heavy elastic bands at the bottom. Speed + Comfort = Body Paint 2.0!
