Product details

The Castelli Espresso 2 Bibshort is a high-performance cycling apparel designed for road cycling enthusiasts seeking comfort and functionality on long rides. This bibshort features a compressive, breathable fabric construction that supports muscles and effectively wicks moisture away to maintain optimal body temperature. The bib design with wide, elastic shoulder straps ensures a secure, non-restrictive fit without pressure points, allowing for unrestricted movement in the riding position. A key feature is the Progetto X2 Air seamless seat pad, which provides targeted cushioning in critical contact areas while maintaining ventilation to prevent overheating. The multi-layer foam construction of the pad offers graduated support that adapts to changes in riding position. The leg openings incorporate silicone grippers that hold the position without constriction and prevent slipping during pedaling. The fabric composition includes elastane for recovery and polyamide for durability, with a UPF 50+ protection for sun safety during outdoor use. The anatomical cut follows cycling-specific ergonomic principles with pre-shaped panels that reduce fabric bunching and chafing. Reflective elements on the back enhance visibility in low-light conditions. This garment is designed for compatibility with cycling jerseys and layers, featuring a bib height that accommodates various torso lengths. The Castelli Espresso 2 Bibshort represents a technical cycling apparel solution focused on endurance comfort and performance-oriented design principles.

The straps of the Espresso 2 bib shorts are now significantly tighter and also a little rougher than on the previous model, which ensures a good fit without slipping or twisting. They are also perforated for improved breathability. The waistband and back are comparatively high.
