2012 sees a new sponsor on board and the Garmin Cervelo Team becomes Team Garmin Barracuda. A new season beckons but a lot remains the same - the Team's drive and commitment to success in the world of professional cycling, to rider development, to a clean sport. There is obviously a lot of love and loyalty within the team and familiar faces will remain on the Team roster for the many kilometers ahead.
Another constant is Castelli's contribution to the team's success. Castelli's commitment to the highest level of performance cycling apparel for both professional athletes and fans shows in every garment. Castelli doesn't just provide team clothing for Team Garmin-Barracuda (alongwith Garmin-Cervelo, Garmin-Transitions and Cervelo Test Team in previous years) , they also collaborate with the team to improve the garment's performance and to develop new fabrics. This leads to better cycling apparel for the team riders, and for you the consumer.
The Aero race jersey was a trend started by Castelli, that has since been adopted by many other race teams and manufacturers. The Team Garmin Barracuda Aero Race jersey provides a close, super-snug fit and is Castelli's most aerodynamic jersey to date. It has greatly evolved since the first version was made in 2007. Since then it has been continuously remade, tested, refined, made again - then re-tested. This process has resulted in there being no less than 70 prototypes prior to the launch of this the finished article. The area behind the shoulders and along the side-panles has received particular attention, and airflow has been improved here to offer increased aerodynamic benefits. It's been a long road, but the result is one fast jersey that will help you make short work of the miles ahead.
Features include:
Saves approximately 12 watts at 40km/hour, compared to a normal race-fit jersey.
Highly breathable, super-light Velocity fabric, Prosecco treated to keep you dry.
Mesh back and side panels for added breathability and cooling.
Silicone print at front and sides to induce turbulance and help further with aerodynamics.
Nervato fabric at arm holes for improved aerodynamics.
Giro3 arm elastic gripper for flat, aero finish.
35cm YKK camlock zipper.
3 rear pockets.
Silicone gripper elastic at the waist.
The sublimatic printing has excellent clarity and brightness of colors.
Castelli cycling apparel is designed to hug all the curves of your body; we recommend ordering a size larger than you typically would for an American-sized cut.
