🚴 Castelli Cycling Free Aero Race 4 Bibshort: Optimal Performance for Road and Gravel Biking Review

Can't rate this highly enough. When I was out with my friends I kept telling them these bibs are the best thing I've ever bought. Drive 25-30 miles and not a hint of pain. And the most interesting thing is how they sit on your hips. Good product.

Castelli shorts with overalls are expensive but excellent quality. You are an awful size. The way is short. I'm 5'10", 175 lbs. I bought a large, too small so sent it back. I ordered X-Lg. Still too tight. I'm not that tall. Find out how you like before you buy determine the correct size.

In previous versions of the Aero Race Bib I always used size M due to the many comments on sizing. That's exactly what I did. Size L was too much fabric and it irritated my skin where it lumps (soft spots). In my opinion, the previous suede pads are more comfortable and durable than this one. I recommend buying in size.

I've been using it for a month or two and it definitely deserves attention. I use 4 times a week for 1.5-4 hours/day (3-4 hours once a week). The suit is very decent and fits very well (expect tight). The only complaint is that I developed a small hole in the back strap, which I wasn't expecting considering how quickly I got it. I'll update this if I remember if this hole becomes a bigger problem.

I am an experienced rider and have used other quality bibs from Assos, Sportful, Santini and others. I love these bibs but beware of the Castelli size chart which will give you a size too small. For me I had to increase two sizes from L to XXL. After getting it right, I found that they fit snugly, but not snugly, and become unnoticeable once you start riding. Not sure about longevity but they will definitely be part of my rotation.

Bought to expand my collection of cycling bibs. Wow. It's everything you'd expect from a pair of cycling shorts. The modified X2 pillow lies beautifully and velvety soft on the skin. I ordered a medium size to stick with my previous Castellis but this set feels snugger. I had to put them on carefully the first time to make sure they were the right size. Yes, right size. The added spandex makes the bibs feel more compressive. Once put on, they are a pleasure to wear. Feet feel fresh while…
