Castelli Sorpasso RoS - Bib Tights with Pad
In the fast lane with this winter cycling tights: Sorpasso RoS Bibtight
„Sorpasso“ means "overtaking" in Italian. That's what Castelli has tried to do with this tight, to make it a bit faster, better, more comfortable. It's made to be technical equipment for riding in the widest range of winter conditions. The main part of the tight uses Nano Flex 3G fabric, the third generation of the nanotechnology fabric treatment that adds a high level of water repellency without affecting the breathability, stretch or warmth of the fabric.
But then we add a few panels of the Nano Flex Xtra Dry fabric to provide a bit more wind protection and warmth in the front panel and over the thighs, and in the back for extra protection from road spray. It's not only about the fabrics: anatomical patterning gives a bend at the knee and the hip, while the seamless bib straps lie flat and securely keep everything in place. The generously padded Progetto X2 Air seamless seat pad make long rides more comfortable, and you have multiple reflective panels to keep you visible. Castelli has made the Sorpasso RoS Bibtight the first choice for the whole winter.

Progetto X² Air Seamless
The Progetto X² Air Seamless seat pad is used to protect your skin while providing just the right level of padding for maximum comfort, no matter how long your epic ride is. A four-way stretch microfiber top layer offers maximum softness and moves with your body to prevent skin irritation. Seamless construction prevents chafing and perforated foam backing allows airflow to aid evaporation. A separate component provides no-compromise cushioning, with Castelli’s infinitely variable thickness to bring the right shape to the right part of the body. Perforated viscous padding is added under the highly sensitive ischial and perineum pressure areas.
NANO FLEX
Exclusively engineered by Castelli. They took their thermal fleecy stretch Thermoflex fabric nanofilaments to create the most water-repellent fabric finish ever. Drops of water stay as spherical balls on top of the fabric without leaving a trace.
ROSSO CORSA
Castelli’s Rosso Corsa label is only applied to the highest-level products they make. Every thread and fiber, every curve and contour is obsessed about. Rosso Corsa represents a categorical breakthrough in cycling innovation and the meticulous craftsmanship you expect from Castelli’s performance-enhancing apparel.

Tolle Hose mit sehr guter Passform. In diesem Fall musste ich Größe L bestellen. M (was ich bei Craft und Gore trage) ist hier zu klein.
Die Hose bietet einen für mich sehr guten Kompromiß aus Atmungsaktivität und Wind-/Kälteschutz. Das Sitzpolster ist komfortabel genug für längere Strecken. Einen Stern ziehe ich für die relativ kurzen Hosenbeine ab. Ich habe noch ein andere aktuelle Hose von Castelli - mit allerdings deutlich längeren Beinen. Und wenn ich schon am rummeckern bin: auch den Trägern hätten 2 Zentimeter mehr Stoff gut getan. Die Hose fällt übrigens sehr klein aus. Bei anderen Anbietern paßt mir L, bei diesem Modell muß es XL sein und auch diese Größe ist eher knapp.
